    Marlin Height On A Trailer:

    I tow twice a year, to the coast and back. It is only 90 miles but the road has lots of uneven surfaces from repaired washouts. I get a yearly permit and use the signage front and back. No problem. Towing with a SRW Dodge 3500. Wish I had a sually. As to height, I'm right at 13' 6". I drove...

    Location - Hot water tank and heater and pres pump 03 Marlin

    My dream, interesting. Maybe that is why I get scalded in the shower. I can hear the pump running, when it shuts off the temp is OK, then it turns on and the hot water nearly burns me. Showers are hazardous on my boat.

    Marlin Bulkhead Noise

    Whatever you find, please post the resolution. That is a very irritating sound, it would drive me crazy. My helm seat used to make such a sound prior to replacing it. My first guess is missing sealant when the top half was secured, or perhaps missing screws under the rub rail as well. I...

    Question for 30' Marlin owners

    The only issue I have with the mid berth is a bad back. Otherwise at 6' the midberth was comfortable. It has the CO2 monitor and an AC vent.

    Tool for removing top of A/C intake strainer?

    I use a bronze two pin wrench, on side fits the Groco strainer, the other side had larger pins. It comes in handy for the fuel caps and the floor spin on hatches. https://www.amazon.com/Groco-Spanner-Wr ... B000FOUQVY

    My Marlin DVD story or Another DVD / TV story

    My boat had the original TV go dead so I ordered a FleaBay TV. Whoops, not the same form factor. It looks like crap as it will not fit in the designed space. I was considering tackling the same project, maybe taking out that entire console and putting a wall mount on the wall as you...

    Help with AC

    I found the pump in my stock of photos. I have only run the AC once or twice so I'm thinking overheating would not be likely, but end of life due to corrosion. I'll be at the boat tomorrow so I'll post up what I find. In searching online it looks like a replacement pump is $230. Ouch. The...

    Left Ignition On

    To finish up this post, West Marine replaced the batteries under warranty. I've also requested a quote for setting up the charging system as mentioned previously. Thanks for your replys and suggestions.

    Lost Trim Plane this week

    I can only speak to the potential of losing a trim tab. When I was cleaning off barnacles I scraped two screw heads off. It was an obvious sign of corrosion. I did not have any anodes on the trim tabs, but I do now! Bennetts advice was to put screws in between the missing heads. Good...

    Left Ignition On

    The boat has two switches, 2 banks of 2 batteries. I think what happened was one battery failed and kept the other battery from getting a full charge. Eventually they both are now toast. I'm trying a last ditch effort with them on the bench. My charger had a reconditioning setting...

    Left Ignition On

    The photo comes out too small. 15 amps on 2 leads. Wish it were wired with dedicated start, not combined.

    Left Ignition On

    I'll wait until 10 PM Pacific time and check the volts. I have the stock charger on a 2007 Marlin, no idea of the rate of charge. I have a photo of the charger and will try to track that down. I'm hoping the charger is working OK.
