    Marlin Pedestal Replacement

    http://www.garelick.com/Blue-Water-Adju ... oth-Series I found which pedestal I have. It is a Garelick Bluewater adjustible pedestal with a locking pin. I'm curious what types of pedestal other Marlins have. Mine is a 2007. Heck, I didn't realize the post could be changed. That comes...

    Marlin Pedestal Replacement

    Has anyone had to replace the seat pedestal on a Marlin, 2007? Mine is broken and very wobbly at the base. The fitting at the top has issues as well, but the movement at the base is the immediate problem. Is there a bolt inside holding the pedestal to the base? I'm hoping the process is...

    Livewell on Marlin Transom

    I have a tote in the center for tuna storage, with kill bags as well. The transom is the only option to increase livebait in my case. The albacore just take lots of ice and storage room. Randy

    Livewell on Marlin Transom

    I'm still looking for anyone that has increased their live bait capacity by adding a transom live bait tank on a Marlin. I do not intend to create any more holes in the bottom, so I'm looking for ideas, photos of water intakes that I can use with a pump that is all outside my dance floor. I'll...

    2002 Grady White Marlin Head System

    My 2007 Marlin is a fresh water system. I dont belive there is a manual valve, but there must be a check valve somewhere to prevent backwash. Perhaps that is corroded if you have a fresh water system. If you have a salt water system, are there strainers after the inlet seacock? My other salt...

    What's everybody doing on their Grady this weekend?

    I took clients halibut fishing out of Garibaldi, OR. In May I cant complain about the weather, we had 2 fishable days this weekend. It was great fun to get a man his first halibut. The clients loved the ride my Marlin provides over their smaller aluminum boats. Randy

    Need help from 330 & Marlin owners

    I have the Simrad AP28 on my Marlin, interfaced with my Furuno Navnet II electronics. It was the best money spent. I use the straight line, but also use the circle and zigzag function when hunting for schools of albacore. I had it installed and had to have them check a leak. It was only a...

    Marlin: Reverse Cycle Heat

    I have never used the heat on my 2007 Marlin. I used the AC only enough to test it during the summer, I would hardly ever need it off of Garibaldi, Oregon. I was thinking of staying over on the boat after a bottom fishing trip during a weather lull. I read of possible issues with the...

    Livewell on Marlin Transom

    I'm thinking of adding more live bait capacity by using a live well on the port transom of my 2007 Marlin. Has anyone done this? I'm looking for ideas on the least intrusive plumbing solution. I need to increase my love bait capacity for albacore fishing for my charter. Whether bringing...

    Battery education

    I've been considering changing the battery wiring on my 2007 Marlin. I had 4 batteries on my last boat with 2 auto circuits that would charge the start batteries first, then charge the house batteries. I split the house functions between the 2 batteries. I could combine all for an emergency...

    On the gas shock there may be a phone number for the maker, there was on mine. They sent me to a seller, who then ordered the shock based on the pounds resistance required. Sorry that I don't recall the name of the seller. I'll repost if I find the receipt.

    Helm Seats

    I have that seat on my 2007 Marlin and it is squeaky and moves in the rough weather. I'm working with Pompanette parts to get a new base, the screw in tightener keeps getting loose after an hour. I wish I had the passenger seat but have the bench seat. That is usually uncomfortable for...
