    Joystick steering problems

    FYI it all started with erroneous joystick control or rather one engine dropping off etc. that is when I pulled batteries as I wanted to inspect #4 battery that cannot be reached for inspection of water level. (Boat was delivered with flooded batteries, stupid savings) All batteries tested like...

    Joystick steering problems

    Update on situation: removed all batteries to check them out. Put them back in after all tested like new. A PIA job, with all the heavy gauge wires / cables etc. Anyway took a day and a half sweating bullets. After a few days I launched boat at marina and cranked the engines, Only one...

When pushing other one only one deployed (the correct one) Bennett (nowadays Yamaha) help desk helped trouble shoot it and are...

    Joystick steering problems

    I have a 2019 335 Freedom with 3x Yamaha 300F with less than 200 hours on the clock. I have repeatedly experienced steering malfunctions when leaving dock or coming back, ie at low speed in close quarters. Generally it has happened without using the joystick but taking off and using the two...

    MSRP Discount in today’s economy?

    A view could be that in general ownership cost is going up with fuel and all but with the general increase through inflation for all boat builders the new build prices may not go down. The margins for dealers though can be 30+ % and there a reduction may happen but in that case service level...

    MSRP Discount in today’s economy?

    Consider the pressure on margins through inflation. I decided prices will not go down significantly so just work out a good deal. Boat show time is starting and the prices I saw in Ft Lauderdale were astronomical. it used to be that show offers were 20 to even 30% off msrp didn't see any offers...

    Limited Wiper Range

    I am sure you already figured this out but the adjustment is at the motor end so you have to remover the cover and work on it then replace and recall the cover. That is what I have as an issue on my 335 F and not tackled yet as it is the port wiper. good luck H

    new Grady quick connect engine flush

    That is correct. I did however order it from products.Cpcworldwide.com they have two versions, valved and straight. I elieve the type nr was HFCD 261257 but not totally sure, would have to check when next time on boat. anyway I didn't pay even close to the $43 each, at the most half of that. it...

    new Grady quick connect engine flush

    I ordered them from supplier and they do work. Only drawback is that the flow through them seem decreased and the telltale stream out of motor is very weak. Most of the time I use the direct hose connection and I also have a manifold with three legs and valves so with one hose connection I can...

    Port side wiper sweep is too short

    The issue is that sweep field is too narrow. So it would have to be adjusted on motor.. I guess the caulk bead is a relative issue as I just had to cut open the sureshade actuator cover to replace motor, or actually to test leads and turned out I had a open line, lead broken inside connector...

    Higher Fuel Prices

    Electric produced by fossil fuels, and some nuclear yes. All planes are not etc... military in general would have been a better word to use. Bio fuels are also being developed as we speak but in general only a few % points of all energy used is "renewable" And that is still so for a long time...

    New Boat (2022) Yamaha Motor Backorder - How long did it take???

    The logistic problem is too political to view here. It is geo political so not only us but it is made worse here. one big issue for all is the reliance on unreliable etc. partners around the world. Pharma and food products being imported too much, in a true crisis the country should be self...

    Port side wiper sweep is too short

    My port side wiper sweeps only about 40 To 60 deg. I wonder if there is anyway to adjust it without removing the motor over which is in the cabin and caulked into place. This is annoying since the sweep starts at far portside and only goes out some over "viewable" area of windshield. Starboard...

    Higher Fuel Prices

    Wonder when the navy will go electric together with Air Force. I'm sure they are forerunners in this admin priorities. I guess answer to pricing in general is if it is worth it then you pay, just as with good whiskey etc........... now we are at European level in prices though. $6.6x for marine...
