Coming along quickly, looking great. I don't quite see how he goes from a curved windshield to squared off corners. It looks like it overhangs a bit, right above the horns. Next time you're there, can you take some pics from inside? I like that he minimizes the width of the the uprights. Other...

You have bullet connectors about a foot below the control box. With the ignition on, twist them a few times, and see if that helps your connections. If so, pull them apart and clean them. If not, pull them apart anyway, find the hot lead, and jump it to each of the other two, probably blue for...

They have probably been closed, and compressed, for 99% of their life, and the gaskets have lost their elasticity. Can you see a trail where the water actually leaks by the gasket, and eliminate to possibility that it is leaking where the frame is bedded in the fiberglass? If you could remove...

Sometimes you do, especially on a newer boat, a situation which I am not familiar with. But aren't you just color matching, or does your SF actually have paint on it? This is going to be interesting. Are you close enough to give regular photo updates?

“Parts at a decent price“, and Grady White, don’t usually belong in the same conversation. Unless it is a warranty issue, or you need actual repairs, rather than just parts, a dealership would be my last resource. Unless it is made out of fiberglass, there aren’t many things on your boat that...

Lucky, you are giving access to a lot more than 5 pics, including some personal notes.

I see it a little differently. The only measurements that are critical are the mounting points for the rear legs. As long as the front legs land somewhere on the cabin roof, they should be workable. To me, it looks like the overhang on the sides, front, and back accounts for most of the...

And although someone at the factory probably keeps up with comments on this website, it is not connected to the company. It is an owners' forum website.

I am sure that this style would be available. Just the instrument cluster would probably be custom.

Actually, 60" is not right. I found some pics, where I was making the boat cover, and I wrote down that the fiberglass is 64X84 to the inside of the down turn.

I don't keep a good repair log, but I do usually take photos, so that I know how to put it back together, and they are dated. On things like pumps, starters, filters, etc, I also write the date on it with a Sharpie.

IIRC, the fiberglass on my 2000 SF228 is 84 X 60.

push up on the inboard edge of those drain grommets and flatten them toward the door panel, and you will probably find some Phillips head screws if you poke around with a screwdriver. You may be able to slide a credit card, or a plastic putty knife behind the bolster to locate the screw...

25 is what comes on a Seafarer, with a factory bracket. Having your power head 5 inches lower, to get the same prop level, would be difficult at best. Also, I would expect a ton of spray caused by the mid-section being submerged so far.

While it is good that Yamaha keeps a data base of dealer maintenance work done on a motor, it's a shame that they can tell you that the starter was replaced, but can't, or won't, tell you if the motor has been stolen. Outboard manufacturers could put a huge dent in these stolen motor rings, if...

Dark blue/White #14 is what the OM lists. Nothing about Black/White.

Are the windows glass, or some form of plexi, that might be curved? A one piece windshield would really improve visibility.

You want a 25 inch motor.

That website makes even Grady White prices look reasonable.
