Can someone tell me how the outriggers factory installed on a Sailfish can be colapsed into themselves. I asusme they are telescoping. I am wondering because I just got the boat aand occasioally have to go under a bridge. Is there a way they can come down and lay on the stern to handle bridge...

I looked at mine after reading your post end and it looks like the the protrusion that the hose slides onto broke off. I tries the washer and it still works find and sprays the window. The end of the hose was all clogged with salt Has anyone ever replaced the piece that the hose cips onto? Not...

Thanks Megabytes - Big difference from my 23 Gulfstream and that was a huge jump from my first GW a Seafarer. Diid you notice that big a difference going from the Sailfish to the Marlin?

Had the new boat out Sunday and was really impressed with the boats ability to handle the water. Strong SE winds blew in and the boat slice thought the chop like a champ. Here is where I need some tips from those with twin engine experiene. We are in a marina that is fairly tight quarters and...

Just picked up my new to me Sailfish. Has a great 40 mile run uo the coast. What a differnece going from a single engine Gulfstream to the twins on the Sailfish. Trying to figure out the systems. The manual sasy there is a sump pump and a filter for the shower. Does anyone know the details...

SBLGFD Curious as to why you did not want it documented. Are there benefits to having it registered instead? Thanks

Sorry about the lack of clarity . The boat was previosly documented. We were told by the dealer that it would take 3 weeks to remove the documentation or we could do a transfer and the dealer would pick up the cost since they were the ones should have have cancelled the documentation befroe...

The 2004 Sailfish I just purchased was due to be launched this weekend, The dealer called and told me that since the boat was federally documented they would either have to request a cancellation of the documentation which would take 3 weeks or change the documented name which would take a day...

Last summer I was spending a night at a marina in Falmouth ma and there was a monster center console powered with 4 275 merc. Talk about a monster. Monster gas bill too!!

I was reading the psot on shore power and have a few questions on a boat I am picking uo this Friday. Do these appliances have the capability to run when the boat is not connected to shore power. I always assumed they could only be used dockside with shore power. Thanks

Does anyone know the answer to this or is it a mistake. The GW perfromance data for a Sailfish with 2 F225 uses 17.57 GPH @4,000RPMs. The Marlin with 2 F225 uses 14.7 @ 4,000 RPMs. Am I missing somehting. I would think it would use more to push a bigger boat? Thanks

welcome and good luck with the new baot. That should give you significant offshore range.

Just curious which is the other boat that GW trnsformed the market with? The Expresses or the 36?

Congratulations..I know the felling - picking up a Sailfish next week. That should satisfy for a couple of years and then on to the Marlin.

Yea - it is a funny how we have been conditioned. I said to my wife today that I saw gas for only 3.39 at a Hess. Exon profits out this week ...Love when I hear record profits in the billions and they cry because they are only making 8 cents on the dollar.

Heard on the news today of a proposal to drop the federal gas tax for the summer months. 25 cents a gallon could ease the pain slightly.

Had the survey completed and passed with flying colors. Traded up from a 2004 Gulfstream (Great Boat) to a 2004 Sailfish with 144 hours. A week from Friday is the launch date. First time with twin engines, just wish gas was going down.

One tip on the hardtop mount. I put one on my Gulfstream and the flapping at high speed can be annoying. I had it mounted close to the rear of the hardtop. If I was to repeat I would mount it further toward the bow to eliminate the noise.

I have been looking at newer used Sailfish. This would be a tradeup from an 04 Gulfstream. The 2006 -08 models have repalced the molded stern seats with a fold away seat. Seems to me a waste of cockpit space for huge coolers? I get the fact that GWs are fishing machines but I thinks the space...

DO you know what the power is. That may tip you off if it is a 232 Gulfstream. Seems like a 2004 engine would be worth more than is being aske for the total package? a Gulfstream would need the bare minimum of a 4 stroke 225.
