After 14 months, countless hours fixing stuff, 800$ at the fuel dock finally got to fish. Not much for size, caught 3 mahi, should have boated 6 or 8 but our technique needs work. Made for a great meal. Hate to think what it cost per pound, but worth every penny.

switch in place port side actuates up and down valve (hear a click) but no motor. starbord side nothing at all. pulled switch verified 12v at pos buss, jumpered 12 v to each contact and got same result. i will try 12 v jumper at pump side of plug next

Nee to replace trim tab pump and switch in my 92 280 Marlin. Need help locating parts as does not look like identical replacement is available thanks

Looks great, where did you get it

ProNautic is the way to go. Easy to use, good documentation. Just try to mount where it is easy to see led readout

I replaced mine with dual purpose from batteries plus. Use them for both cranking and house separated into 3 banks (cranking,cranking and house). I only use flooded lead acid batteries. Maintenance and charging (strongly rec a super smart charger maintainer desulfator) are paramount to...

I know this topic has been discussed before and I apologize in advance for bringing it up again, but... I just got my sample starboard pieces from boat warehouse and would like some info. The smallest thickness available is 1/2 inch. They will cut to my size requested thus avoiding the need...

Had someone else do some diagnostics while i am away and he thinks it is the motor. The job does seem daunting under ideal circumstances and near impossible with the boat on a lift. I dont own a trailer, but did find a yard nearby that will haul out, store and return for about 600-700 for a...

I decided early on to eliminate all ac on my boat except the onboard battery charger. At the present time there is no ac going to the bulkhead or cabin. I moved the twist lock ac input from the starboard side to the port side and installed a new galvanic isolator in the battery compartment. I...

additionally after looking at parts diagrams what i thought was the relay is nothing more than a fuse block with those two huge fuses, I felt a resounding click when actuating the lift switch which must have just been referred via the heavy 12 volt wire from the relay, ignorance is bliss i...

the hatch on the left would like to make it bigger and open with hinges on top. not sure of the dimensions of current hatch. i did look at some hatches online and seems i could expand the height but probably not much width

I have been working on the dc side of my 280 marlin and very frustrated with the lack of access to the bilge, battery charger and batteries. I have removed the fold down seat on the cockpit side of the transom and would like to enlarge the small hatch which allows access to the battery charger...

thanks to all, had to leave for up north before full diagnosis made. will dig deeper next visit

exposed both relays working motor and non working motor relay is 3 in square cube and has palpable click when actuated. total of 8 10ga wires in each all in pairs of 2 with 2 smaller fused wires which are the actuating wires i assume. 4 wires red with white stripe seem to come from battery...

everything else works fine. no problems with either engine other than lifting port. i did try when cruising at high speed and nothing. to much going on yesterday to lift the cowl will try today

port engine lifters do not function on my 250 yamaha, starboard works fine. I hear a faint click when the switch is pressed at the helm but nothing happens at the engine. been since sept since they were last used and worked fine then. not sure how to begin trouble shooting this one

Much as I do not want to looks like I may pull the deck panel. Boat is older and probably in need of an inspection is this area thus killing two birds with one stone. One of these days have to stop taking apart and start using this boat. Since purchased in April have had it away from the dock...

One of the issues I am trying to fix is the fuel readings at the helm. The main tank reading shows one bar and does not change. The aux shows and accurate reading but takes an excessive amount of time to change. I assumed it was the senders but in testing found otherwise. Shorting the aux...

New zinc is there courtesy of lift installer and will change religiously, but will also disconnect except for the brief time in use

Looks like a 20 amp twist lock plug/outlet is in order. If ground is disconnected there is no circuit for galvanic rxn right?
