    Grady White 275 Repowered with G2's

    Good to hear they are going well! I like following on these G2's. I am intrigued and think they would be the only smart choice if I ever decide to repower my HPDI's. Overall the HPDI's are great, but this annoying idle issue is starting to make me want to change them out. Otherwise, once they...

    86 Overnighter Fuel Cap O-Ring

    I was able to find some replacements online a few years back. Don't recall where I found them. It might have been Perko. However, since I have found that the red colored oring that comes on my headlight bulb adapter fits perfectly and so far has held up better. They are smaller, but can stretch...

    I have replaced the seals on my hatches and they use the normal D Seal. Taco sells it. Same as what they use in the factories. http://tacomarine.com/category/cat_weat ... Hatch-Tape Taco carries both types as well.

    Cat's Got into the Cuddy... NEED ADVICE!!!

    We use the sprays that Walmart carries in the pet section to clean up after our pets. The stuff is amazing. It neutralizes the smell and also removes the stains. I would spray this liberally on the cushions, let it soak a bit, then rinse the cushions with your water hose. I have used the...

    What if I went past 20 hours, say 30

    Yikes, every 100 hours? Maybe that is stuff you can do on your own? That would mean I would be taking in at least once per season!

    '99 272 Sailfish Cockpit Base Molding

    Hi Tucker, after cleaning well, the adhesive was strong enough to hold on it's own. So far, still staying connected and no issues.

    How to Clean the Side Curtain Glass

    When getting my new curtains made up in Vanceboro, they informed me to use nothing other than the Imar cleaner/polish or will suffer the consequences! So I did that for over 4 years and great success. However, I have also been using the Shurhold Serious Shine with no ill affects and really like...

    2014 Marlin leaks

    Is it possible this water is coming in when running in seas or is this at rest? I have been battling some leaks now for a couple of years. Over time, found some issues and fixed such as leaking water line, then caulk around window channels, hardtop stantions, etc. Windows seemed to continue...

    Say good bye

    I had a 20' dual console for nearly 20 years before sold and got this 25 sailfish WA. The dual console was ok and did well, but I have to say I really like the WA better. Maybe because I am older, but love the ability to go down into the cabin, use the bathroom, wash up in the sink when it is...

    Anchor Roller

    I made one from flat bar SS like Dennis mentioned. Was not hard. Measured the curve and determined where to drill the holes. Then sanded progressively until it got a high shine, then polished out. Bent it over some pipe and installed it. It is really nice. It actually came into great use this...

    It was all fun and games till my motor got stolen

    Sorry to hear about this. I have read stories also down in FL about these thefts. I wonder if there is some system made that can cover the mounting bolts and lock down so it would make it very hard or not worth it to try to remove it and steal them? At least slow them down, etc. Kinda like...
