    Gulfstream 232g Survey and Scupper issue?

    As much as I love my 208 adventure, I'm finally ready to move up a bit in size. (2 foot itis!) Anyway, I just had a sea trial completed on an older 232g (SeaV2) I'm thinking about purchasing. It has twin 150 4 strokes (487lbs each) on it and the scuppers are pretty much underwater by a good...

    Mounting Twins on Adventure?

    You will be underpowered with twin 70s. The single lightweight 150 is the bare minimum and two 70s would weigh more than the 150 and also present more drag than the single. The extra weight will push the hull lower also adding low speed drag and maybe submerged scuppers depending on the hull...

    Covering Adventure with Tarp

    Frustrating indeed that's how it was out here in the late 90s early 2000s, very rare to catch a legal 22" halibut. Now that the commercial pressure has been substantially reduced, the stock is making a great comeback. Our limit in socal is 5 22" fish per day. You can catch them all year but gets...

    Covering Adventure with Tarp

    I'm originally from the northeast and used to love catching flounder, rarely got any legal fluke though. Our halibut fishery has been getting better every year since the gillnet ban back in the late 90s. A lot of rec guys out here don't even target them. Last year we had triple digit bluefin...

    4 blade props on 208

    My prop is a stainless steel Yamaha SDS 14 1/2 x 15p 3 blade. It wasn't cheap, around $450 from Sim Yamaha and they usually have the best prices on Yam parts. Probably could have gotten a Reliance much cheaper but didn't price those. Good luck with it..

    4 blade props on 208

    Sorry for the delay trap, here is the info. My F200 inline 4 is mounted 3 holes down from the top. I gained 300 rpm on the switch from the Yamaha 17" SDS to the Yamaha 15" SDS. Conditions today: Light chop, full tank, 2 onboard. Cruise which improved 4200 RPM @28 MPH, 3.4 MPG WOT which went...

    Covering Adventure with Tarp

    Pretty much but right now mostly just halibut and rockfish. We had an epic summer with the El Nino, Marlin l,tuna and wahoo just a few miles outside the harbor. 8-)

    4 blade props on 208

    Offhand I don't recall which hole I have my Yam mounted too. I will check when I head out this Friday and let you know how the new prop does as well. I had the same concern on rpm. I'm not planning on running at 6k for a long duration but I want to be sure I can hit the full operating range or...

    4 blade props on 208

    What motor are you running out of curiosity? On my 208, I can only get 5300 rpm WOT on my 3 blade SDS Yam 200 hp inline 4 stroke on a Yam 17p SDS prop. I just repropped to a 3 blade 15p to try an get a bit more rpm.

    Hardware Rust on Hull

    I had the same issue and CLR cleaner was recommended, works awesome, rust stains gone.

    Covering Adventure with Tarp

    What do you guys think about no tarp at all ? I store my 208 outside uncovered but the average temps are typically low 70s, no humidity sunny year round. I'm thinking maybe I can get away with just more frequent waxings.

    Yamaha F200 report....

    I am running the same prop on the 4 cyl F200 and only seeing 5300-5400 at full throttle. Going to try a 14 1/2 x 15 yam sds prop next week. Great motor though yes. I ran about 9 hours yesterday averaging about 3.2 mpg, offshore west coast.
