    Fixing my 228, autopilot and power steering question

    Lucky, I put the Raymarine EV150 on my 228 and have been loving it. The only thing I wish is that I did it sooner. No problems integrating it with my Garmin gps. You will not be disappointed if you go that direction.

    Removing and re-applying hull-side "GRADY-WHITE" name plates

    Like others have said, use a heat gun and remove the letters or stripe. Then wipe down with acetone, I did mine this spring and it turned out great. I ordered a new logo and striping from the dealer and my 2000 looks new.

    Mounting a crab puller to a 209 Fisherman gunnel

    No it is a continuous piece. I would put it back by the stern cleat area, I'm sure that would be fine with a backing plate.

    Mounting a crab puller to a 209 Fisherman gunnel

    I run this same setup on my 228 and love it. I have the GM650 with a backing plate made out of G10 board for additional strength. I use Pac Pro puller for crab here in Oregon without any issues. If you have any questions you can always give them a shout, the owners are incredibly...

    It’s official… we’ve got some blood on the deck!

    Well done, now you need to get out and chase some albacore. There would be some trailering involved but you would enjoy a trip to Westport. We put 33 albacore on my 228 out of Garibaldi 2 days ago. Good work and glad you are getting after the salmon.

    I could not find any info on it, indicating that it would be ok. Not worth taking a chance damaging the motor for saving a few bucks. Thanks

    Finally wet!

    Congrats! Make sure you clean the intake screen on the pickup inside the tank. Also, on the backside bottom of the reservoir, there is an inline filter that can get clogged as well. Good Luck

    Were you able to use the same hydraulics, did you replace just the tabs? Thanks
