    Trailer guides

    KY Grady, how did you straighten the tweaked guides? I loaded on a very windy day and both mine are tweaked outward. Did it take a hydraulic press or just crowbar inside and some elbow grease?

    I thought I should update this thread. Not wanting to open up the various sensors I decided to use a product to free up any gunge. It worked. My tank now reads accurately. Patience and BoatersMate Zaal Noflex Digestor Sewage Treatment Odour & Sludge Eliminator will get me through the season.

    I'm trying to order shear pins for my bowthruster but do not know the model number of the factory installed BT on my 2007 Marlin. The boat is 90 minutes away. Can another Marlin owner give that information?

    Wheel is Seized

    To update this thread it was the tilt mechanism, specifically the pot metal universal joint in that mechanism. I replaced the tilt and all is good. Now I have a backup helm. Not a bad thing to have on the shelf.

    Autopilot for Marlin

    I run a Simrad AP28, on my 2007 Marlin with 2007 Furuno plotter. Everything ties together, but there are slight variations that drive me to distraction. It has to do with the heading displays. They don't match and are off by just a bit. It is not enough to tear it apart in search of...

    Wheel is Seized

    Two things I got from talking to repair shop: there is a U joint in the tilt mechanism that might seize, or inside the helm itself. I ordered a refurb model and will replace the whole helm & tilt.

    2007 Marlin Head Discharge

    Yes I have a vacuflush system. I have 3 different sensors, you think if the empty sensor is stuck the others will not light up? So most likely that one sensor needs attention? I've emailed the likely makers of the tank, just waiting for some answers. From what I can tell the sensors are...

    2007 Marlin Head Discharge

    I was outside the 3 mile limit so I tried to dump my holding tank. I know there is water and pink fluid in the tank yet the light in the head shows empty. I filled and flushed a bunch of water yet no change. Anyone have this happen? Wondering where the sensor is located and how to change it out.

    Actual weight of 300 marlin

    Mine weighs much like g0atagrip, maybe a bit less. I tow with a 2005 3500 Dodge 4 x 4. I have 2 hills that slow me down to 50 mph. Wish I had a dually. The electric/hydraulic brakes are the only way to go. I'd never tow this without E/H.

    2007 Marlin Front Bilge Pump

    To clarify: Old pump used 2 wires to it. It used a seperate float switch. The float switch wires were not connected directly to the pump. Both sets of wires disappear into the darkness, unknown what connections are available in the darkness. New pump uses 3 wires as you described. New pump...

    2007 Marlin Front Bilge Pump

    Thanks for the replies. DennisG01 has identified the 3 wires coming off the new pump. I tried attaching power to the auto wire and it did test with the push button. Doing that does not power the switch. I gave up, hoping the rear bilge and high water alarm is enough to alert me. The front...
