Yup , pulled the frig and checked power line but no power. This is going to be a tough trouble shoot since no fuse. Thanks for your input!

The frig is a 12 volt only system. I checked all of the fuses under the helm station and they were all good.

Lost power to my refrigerator today and spent the rest of the day trying to figure out why. I went through the manual and nothing about a fuse. Every other electric component on the boat is listed. The wiring diagram shows orange wires going to the back of the switch panel. I assume that is...

I had this once and after an hour of searching for the issue I found that someone had shut off the cabin and head sink at the nozzle. I'm sure you checked but just in case !

The windlasses I have had also had a breaker located right at the switch. There is a lever that has to be pushed up for the switch to work. Hopefully it is a simple fix

I went from 3.3 F225s to 4.2 F250s with mechanical controls 2 years ago. I never had an issue with the 3.3s until the infamous corrosion issue got me. As good as the 3.3 are the 4.2 are even better. I have more HP but the mid range torque and top end speed are significantly improved. I have seen...

Do you have the brand? Mine is a 2004 Isotherm. The refrigerator has a round knob inside the frig up in the back right hand corner . It has on off switch that rotates to set the desired temperature for the unit, To turn off turn all the way to the left unit the knob click into the off position,

I ultimately went with F250 4.2L mechanical engines over the electric for cost reasons. The labor to swap out two mechanical engines for 2 mechanical engines was $2,020. This is right in line with what Doc quoted as well. Since you have the already purchased the digital it looks like you will be...

Here is a detailed estimate that I got for 2 F250.Installation should be the same about 4,500 or 5,600 with old engine removal. This was the same situation you described but going from F225s mechanical to F250 digitial with electrical controls

The best time to do night running is when there is a full moon. Amazing visibility improvement. May help you getting used to your electronics at night

you might be able to see it on your own unit even if you do not have radar. Check and see if your GPS has a simulation option and check Radar overlay simulation and you will see it live on your GPS.

They also serve as an insulator if you either the live well or the fish box with ice.

I had that burping syndrome once on an old Mako. It turned out to be an issue with the fuel hoses to the tank. Over the years the skin material just soften up and was collapsing and blocking the flow of fuel. I eventually found it when I smelled gas fumes from bilge. are you having the same...

Curious, how do you lock it?

The pump out will suck it out with or without a working macerator. The fuse is a 25 amp under the helm (on a Sailfish). I ran my tank dry one time be forgetting to close the discharge valve and running at high speed. Don't leave the discharge valve open in a no discharge zone or you could be...

The prop will make a big difference. I had a similar situation on twin 250 I bought last year. The right props were backordered for a few months and I was using props from my 225's. I was only getting around 5200. New props I am now just shy of 6000 and performance exceptional. I went from 15...

I have a 2004 with the 500 Horizon. This is what I use and it works great with the windlass 1 × Lewmar Premium 3-Strand Anchor Rodes Length: 1/2" x 300' with 15' of 1/4" G4 Chain

I have had a couple if issues with the macerator pump out. First one was just a fuse, my Sailfish block is located under the helm station. The second was the switch on the cabin wall. I confirmed it was a switch by just touching the two wire going to the switch and the pump started to run. I...

Either bad pump or wiring - I run mine at times for 18 hours and it has never shut off. Probably going to be a process of elimination - Good luck

There is an active thread on this site by Russ. He just did one on his boat - details the weight, cost installation . Bigger boat than yours but you will get some good info
