all great advice to consider. just picked up a unit and give it a go and will let everyone know the outcome.

as my 265 will live in dry storage, the more effecient storage option seems to be collaspable poles ILO fixed 9’ poles. Any other 265 owners fishing with collaspable outriggers?

Down Starboard side.

I have a 2001 265 Express and my windless pre-wire location to the helm was run differently than the GW diagrams. Pre-wire runs from anchor locker down port side to the helm. It is coiled below the starboard side instrument gauges and fastened to the side wall (above and to the right of the...

Alright, I have located the pre-wire at the windless location (anchor locker) and it runs down the starboard side of boat and not the port side as the GW diagrams and others have indicated. Has anyone else experienced the windless pre-wire running down the starboard side of the boat (assuming to...

Going to get this wired today.

Recently purchased 265 Express came with the outrigger poles, but they need to be re-rigged and the spear toppers are also missing. anyone order the rigging kit from Lee Jr. website? anything to be aware of re-rigging the poles? Should the side mount wishbone bases mounted have enough movement...

What did you replace the liner with? I have a 265 express where there are cracks in multiple areas and I would like to repair or replace it.

Well, he did say to contact a surveyor, but that was basically his position. I have not pulled the engines or the bang plate. I did tap with a hammer, but i'm not an authority.

Thanks Wahoo for the info. I emailed Grady about the crack and they said the Greenwood XL will not rot and it has aluminum sandwiched between the ply. "Replace the bang cap and caulk and your fine" was basically the information I received...The bang cap has very minor separation. I saw the...

Got the bilge and below deck cleaned yesterday. 50/50 Clorox and water, pressure wash does the trick!

Wahoo I have a small diagonal 2" crack at the bang cap and I sent the picture to Grady who stated "the wood in that location will not rot". Replace the aluminum bang cap at a Grady dealer with a vinyl (?) cap and caulk. Can you tell me what the cost for this repair is approximately?
