I had a wired panel that New Wire Marine did for a 1994 Wellcraft V-21 and it turned out great. They are very helpful and easy to work with.

Thanks for all the thoughts. My main goal is to refurbish the panel because the labels are weather worn and just look a bit haggard. I thought about the Carling switches since they have the switch function made into the rocker itself. The boat is a 1999 248 so I'm sure there is no possibility of...

Has anyone tried to replace the GW McGill switches with Carling switches in the same panel? Thanks.

I am hoping that it will come a part. I don't have the boat yet. That will happen in the next week. At worst I figured I could tape it off as you mentioned. Thanks for your thoughts.

Is it possible to separate the rear section from the main section of the Yamaha cowling pictured? I want to remove and repaint the peeling section. Thanks.

On Yamaha gauges for a 1999 ox66, do they go to 999 hours and then roll over to 0? I did not think that was correct but someone told me that. Thanks.

Max HP is 250.

I have a 1999 GW 223 with a 1999 Yamaha 200 OX66 that I possibly would swap to a 2006 F250. It appears that there is about 100 lbs difference in the weight. How big a factor will that be in how the boat sits in the water and performs? Would it be enough of a problem that I wouldn't want to make...

I replaced the fuse block in my GW 223 and I used this. For $30-$35 it was well worth it. Blue Seas 5025.

That looks great!! You should enjoy it for a long time to come.

rockfishon, Your angle replacement looks great. If I might ask a question. Are the white vertical pieces on either side of the SS angle original to the boat or are they replacements? Thanks.

Ahhh to be young with a new ( to the owner) Grady. Great pictures and boat. Enjoy!!

I bought some windshield support rods from Great Lakes skipper. I think you might find the nine in size there. But I don't think they would have any as long as 19 in.

I had some made at the local locksmith shop. The key blank is an Ilco X106 KA15. Of course I had to have a key for the duplicate, but if you can find one to copy that will work.

The majority of the time I use the boat on a lake where I don't need a VHF radio. Also I wanted to use a portion of the electronics box to store cell phones and keys Etc.

Wahoo, I'm sorry I just saw your post to this thread. I was/am the installer. It only required 4 screws to hold it in place. Really very simple. I originally had an acrylic door which lifted up to give access to the box. The boat came to me with a Furuno DF/GPS which did not work. I wanted to...

AM, I have been out of pocket for a few days. That is 1/2" starboard. I had it made by Deep Blue Marine. I think they used a 1/4" round over bit. I made a template of what I wanted and sent it to them. If it had just been the starboard without the door, I probably would have attempted it myself...

I finally got the electronics panel mounted in The GW 223. All I have left is to install the transducer and hook it up. I will be able to do that this weekend when I put it on the trailer. Also installed a completely new brake system on the trailer. I need to bleed it in the next day or two...

I won't tell if you won't. LOL.

Yes I am the same one. I bought a 1999 223. It seems as though you and I are traveling some of the same paths. I really like the looks of your 265. I wish that I could justify having one of those. I really like the design. I look forward to keeping up with you on this forum.
