It never hurts to ask Grady. They will want your hull number.

I have my Marlin 300 insured by United Marine Underwriters. It was by far the best coverage and cost.

I also heard the ring stole 40 motors in one night down in southeast Florida around Melbourne and Ft Pierce. I bet they are in a container on a ship to Africa or South America. They hit small marina's and boat storage places without cameras or video. Smart crooks.

Update: Frankie at Dockside Canvas is replacing the clear panel for 120 bucks. Way cheaper than replacing the entire port curtain.

I recommend you try Seapower Marine cleaner and wax. That stuff is amazing. I have used it for years with good results on red wine stains, rust stains, suntan lotion stains, and bird poop stains.

What a great tip Lt. Mike!

In addition to covers for the helm and helm seats, I had covers made for my port and starboard bolsters, and back bolster and fold down seat. I learned the hard way from my previous boat that the sun eventually eats everything.

Thanks for your inputs guys, appreciate the advice.

My port side curtain on my 2007 Marlin has a 6 inch split in the see thru plastic. I had a guy come out and make a recommendation. He wants 900 bucks to replace the one curtain, but said he would do all the curtains for 1900. I have not found another shop willing to take a look yet. What do...

I have used both mono and dacron, prefer the dacron. I have the pulleys on my outriggers, seems to work much better. Be sure they are stainless steel rollers. I have used three different kinds, they all work fine, go with what you prefer.

I found a way to beat the high prices of wiper blade replacement. Advance Auto Parts: TRICO Break-to-Fit Wiper Refills. The ones that fit my Marlin 300 are model 47-800. $7.52 a pair. 17" to 26" inch, 8mm square claw blades. Easy to fit perfectly, easy to break to fit. Beats the heck out of $30+...

Same props on my Marlin 300 with F250s.

I got it as a gift from my son so not really sure what the unit cost, the Garmin site shows $1595. I did have it installed, got charged $981. It did include some added parts to connect it up. If I had it to do over I would have shopped around for a better installation price.

For several years I have been struggling with getting air in my steering system. It also was also squealing badly. After bleeding the system many times, which only lasted a couple trips, before the the steering started slipping again. I finally had a tech come out and check out the system...

I added a Garmin GHC 10 auto pilot to my Marlin and it works great with my 4210.

Hey guys, I am doing some basic maintenance on the boat and I ran across this product for the seat cushions. Has anyone used this stuff before? LEXOL, it is a vinlex protectant for dashboards, rubber and vinyl surfaces. Thanks for any inputs.

Finally got a weekend of reasonable winds so we headed our for red snapper and scamp. We were able to avoid the red tide by heading West about 25 miles down the beach. I had checked the FWC website for their satellite imagery of the red tide. We got lucky going out the pass as our live bait...

I am into the 100 hour maintenance on my engines. Anybody ever try toilet bowl cleaner to polish up your stainless steel props? I used the "works" today while in the dingy after changing lower unit oils and touching up the lower units where I cleverly ran them into the sand out at Shell...

I agree with Dave. Do the 100 hour per your engine manual. In addition, if not already noted in your engine manual, I would most definitely change fuel water separators every 100 hours. However Yamaha says change them every 50 hours. If your are using non ethanol fuel I would go to 100...

Ozz, I recommend you ask Grady White to be sure. My Marlin is a 2007 model, and I think my flat transducer is 12 inches by 2 inches.
