    12v Power Outlet Passenger Side Not Working

    i have a few fuse blocks. check all of the fuses you can find. wouldn't hurt to check the continuity of the actual socket to make sure it's good. ron

    Livewell washdown conversion

    i'm no expert. i prefer NOT to use the raw water washdown (saltwater for me). i only used it a couple times in my prior boat and have disconnected the hose in the current one. i just feel that you would wind up blasting saltwater in areas that really shouldn't be that exposed to it. i'm...

    Diesel Gen on a 2003 Grady white 33

    it might be worthwhile to call GW (or FP) and find out how much of the control components are plug and play to the newer design. ron

    Diesel Gen on a 2003 Grady white 33

    2 cents. why not replace with same fp 4200? all the wiring is already there. a different genset will require all new controls etc. ron

    Perko Masthead Light Flickering

    if the socket seems loose, it probably is. i would check the power and ground contacts at the box first - easy part. then look at the ratchet connector to see if the wire is chafed. last would be to pull the socket and fix the wires or replace the whole thing (depending on age). ron

    Engine performance

    never heard of that, but i'm not an authority. i had a 232 w/ twin f200's. picked up a plastic bag on one engine once and got the alarm but it did not shut down. i shut it and cleared the bag. are you sure it's not a fuel issue? are you getting alarms? maybe one of the yammie experts can...

    Strange Fluid Leak

    if it's coming from a "crack' it's probably water that has seeped into the wood core of the deck. had the same problem on my prior boat because one of the deck screws was drilled past the top resin coat. at a minimum, seal up the crack after it gets a chance to dry out some. ron

    2004 Express 330 Freezer in Fish Box

    another option is to put chill plates inside the box. not sure if it has any impact on saving time and/or money (but i did see it done). ron

    Should I have my fuel sender repaired under warranty

    not "accurate", but reasonable. if yours is not even close, have it fixed. both mine were (are) well within reasonable ranges. ron

    Compass Replacement

    the brand should be indicated right on the compass. compasses haven't really changed much so you may be able to get the exact model and drop it in the hole. if you have access below, look for mounting screws, if not should be about three screws on the compass bezel that look different from the...

    Where would the Flux Gate Compass be in a 33 Grady Express

    Re: Where would the Flux Gate Compass be in a 33 Grady Expre first look up in the radio box. then check the small locker next to the head right under the electrical panel -- look up inside (this is where i put mine). then look inside the sump (well) of the electronics pod -- if nothing there...

    360exp holding tank

    have you determined that the valve was seated correctly in the first place? if it was in wrong and gets put back wrong, ain't going to help anything (i've seen this on other stuff). it's odd that something that simple (and important) would blow out under normal running conditions. this might...

    Garmin vs Raymarine for 360 Express

    i'm a garmin fan. i have the 5212 (prior 2010c) and think it's a great mfd. very easy and intuitive to use. i like how garmin stays up on s/w fixes until the unit is mature. great customer support as far as i'm concerned. [networked gsd22, gmr404, gxm51, and kvh autocomp1000] i also had a...

    Is Grady The Same???

    hey shams, unfortunately, gw has cut corners like most other companies in the world (toyota included!). fortunately, customer service is still top notch and they stand behind what they build, and make right what needs to be. i had a bunch of quality control issues on my '09 that just shouldn't...

    feeding wire from stern to fuse panel (272 sailfish)

    there are rigging tubes. your manual will probably have the schematics. if you don't have a manual, go to the gw site under customer resources and download the manual for your year/model. ron

    Worst luck ever? Boat nearly sunk

    with that said, you need to check every thru hull and every hose attached to them. the deck plates in the transom well should be checked to ensure they are making a tight seal. if you have an engine control line conduit attached to the boat, make sure that is watertight also. there is...

    Yamaha Warranty and Stabil?

    my gw owners manual says to add a fuel stabilizer. if i'm not mistaken, stabil is one of the oldest. if yamaha has determined there is something detrimental in the formula, they should be contacting every owner. ron
