You will have to follow its' path but I would guess it to be the ground for the tilt/trim motor or a ground for the anode system. Not being the one looking at the thing makes it difficult to speak intelligently but you have the benefit of being there so your input carries more weight. Where is...

I think that may be the grease fitting for the pivot tube is sheared off. A small screw extractor will remove it. I don't have that model motor but that's my best guess. You should find it is hollow if you insert an ice pick in to it.

It's been a few years since I removed that light on my previous Grady, but I seem to remember working a small thin screwdriver under the edge of that round plastic piece that holds the bulbs. It just pops out. Once that was worked out of there, you will see two screws holding the main fixture...

Ryhlick, If you do wind up with a good suspension seat in your boat and you are the only one enjoying the cushioning effects, then you have to be mindful of your passengers that are enduring the ride without that benefit. I speak from experience as I used to have a welded aluminum boat and ran...

Plug one of these into your shore power pedestal on the dock. You may need to use an adapter depending on what is provided on the pedestal. Don't rewire your boat until you verify that it is receiving proper circuitry...

That's a good idea about using Z to segregate them on my list. I will do that. All the number do have 00 to 59 in the minutes and 3 digits for the seconds, which he didn't put into the number, but I think maybe just because he knew what they were. He also made notes about what he saw like...

Yes, they are hand written notes. The guy even recorded who accompanied him on each trip. He was an avid diver also and the guy that gave these to me said the old guy actually dove on most of them to check them out. His notes reveal some interesting things. He was short on words but still...

Thats what I thought and the guy insisted they were LORAN. Thats why the long string of numbers. They must be decimal GPS and the guy just left the decimal out, correct?

The first two spots are....2728250 8252966.........his notes call for 44 foot depth. that factor would help to figure out if we are in the neighborhood. next spot............2715232 8247905.........60 feet of water

Yes, I remember you doing that for me. I had old Raymarine format files that you converted to GPX. Thanks for explaining the workings of LORAN. I knew it was radio based and now I understand why sharing info with a different machine will not replicate exactly. I guess I can try a couple of them...

Recently I had some interaction with a fellow Florida dweller because of the recent hurricane. We got along well and he became aware that I fished. He offered that his father- in-law was a life-long fisherman and diver and had passed away a few years ago. The old gentleman told his daughter to...

Wow, scary moments in that lock! Well, at least you got to test your adrenaline system out to make sure it works. Sorry to hear about your Buddys' house. Eleven inches of rain is bound to cause trouble of some sort. As far as Ian goes, I can tell you from first-hand experience he's an ass. He...

Rob, I'm just curious if you crossed over to West Palm through the Okeechobee cut or went around by the keys?

Just put on your McGiver cap.

All the new boats sent to Marine Max from Sea Ray are shrink wrapped, but you may want to check with the people that wrapped your boat as there may be different levels of quality as far as standing the high wind speed.

Welcome Chris, Nothing better than having family on a boat. Kudos on stepping up to the 268.

This is something I have been contemplating. I am curious about what you came up with that beat using the deck pump-out fitting to evacuate the tank?

Here's one that will get noticed..... https://sarasota.craigslist.org/bpo/d/stuart-2021-magic-tilt-triple-axle/7551619143.html
