I had 2 2004 with 720 hours on them in 20n17 and lost both of them to exhaust corrosion that spread to the powerhead. Had them inspected every other year for the previous 8 years and they were clean. Even when they went in for inspection the last time they were running flawlessly. As someone...

GE Almond is what the GW dealer near me uses.

Souds like sending unit - mine have access through the popout deck plate. Easy fix just make sure your hole alignment is correct as it is easy to strip. I marked a line from on the existing sender and the tank so I could easily identify the correct orientation. Make sure there is not a full...

Looks great! Are you able to clean it just using soap and water?

I switched to Petitt hydroco.at about 7 years ago and think it is a much better paint for keeping marine growthat bay. Most of extreme buildup that I experienced has gradually disappeared over the years including chipping and peeling. I also find that power washing the bottom is a lot more...

I admire your attitude and the approach of just making the best of the situation. I probably would have had my hammer out by now :) Enjoy your trip it is interesting to follow!

Depending on the state u live in, you do not need to register and do annual renewal stickers, no state title, boat name and port identify the boat (cleaner apperarance).

I did an extensive search last year and could not come up with an identical match. Some have said there are a bunch out there but not with the same bolt patterns. I eventually called Pompanette and there customer service said they could order the part but it was a crazy $. Something like $350...

Boat Outfitters has most of what you are looking for. They also sell starboard that you can just cut your own trim. They are very helpful at cutting custom work to your specs. They also carry a full line of pre made boxes with doors and shelves.

There are many opinions on how to utiltize two tanks - since my tanks have 150 in one tan and 70 in the other I prefer to rub them both on one and then both on the second. To me it is too confusing to be monitoring 2 tanks at the same time .

They go pretty quick in NE if priced right. There are 3 or 4 major dealers in the region and most of them have little or no inventory of used GWs

I have Dock Hugr fenders on my slip - I remove them over the winter and clean them before storing. They are about 4 years old and still look great. The only downside to them - if you have a wind that is blowing you against them they be squeaky noisy.

Not sure about Marlin but I have replace mine on a Sailfish and the access was through the inspection hatches. I would guess the Marlin is the same,

There is on for sale in northeast with the same year and engines for 115K. It has been for sale since last September. Sounds like you have a fair price, Good luck

i would say pushing it would be constantly running full throttle - Do to most ocean water conditions I generally run 33-48 RPMs and then an occasional wide open for the need for speed itch.
