    265 Capsized of Jersey Coast

    and 265 scuppers sit low. When tanks are full of 250 gallons the scuppers are under. There is a lot of height to the deck so it doesn't flood the deck. But if the hose fails you are taking on water. I know a lot of people here panic over scuppers under the water line. But it really isn't any...

    I wouldn't try it until 3/4 tank at least.. Depending on how the boat sits the fuel surface may rest at an angle to the top of the tank. so you need to burn 35 gallons...

    Backing into slip + fenders

    That should work. I have a big fender hanging on the center of the dock(up out of the water). I have a roller fender at the tip of the dock. I hang one on the stern cleat of the boat when I tie up I don't have a full picture of it. My floating dock has an outside fixed pole and I use a line...

    2004 33 Express Cruiser Twin 2015 300 HP Yamaha VERY HARD STEERING

    twin 300s I would say two Your motors are new? Original were 225 or 250? maybe you only had single cylider and the helm that goes with it. I think you need a different volume helm to push two. I'm no expert...

    Core Replacement Guide?

    I'm pretty sure there is core in that. you can see the relief around the pie holes. I'm pretty sure grady only used plywood in decks and deck hatches. Balsa was in hardtops and hull sides of larger models.

    OK. You cut the pink wire at the tank and touched to tank. Unless there was a bad connection to the sender at the tank, its the sender.

    265 Capsized of Jersey Coast

    definitely a 265. Don't recognize the boat or the guys onboard. Its not a trailer boat..he didn't forget the plug. lots of things could flood a boat. The original scupper hoses were scary on mine. There are four 6" popout pie holes in the motorwell. The livewell thruhull & pump can leak..or...

    2004 33 Express Cruiser Twin 2015 300 HP Yamaha VERY HARD STEERING

    The only way to know if your boat has a power steering assist pump is to look for it. It should be in the stern "lazarette" just follow the hoses from the motors. Sometimes power assist pumps are connected directly to the AP pump. You have twins. Do you have one or two cylinders?. If you...

    You have to look at the top of it. If you have original tanks it is probably the standard 5 screw pattern. My replaced tanks are threaded and screw in. There are no screws. Most likely you have a broken wire or corroded connection. check them at the tanks and at the switch. Check the...

    Hydro shield prop saver/ hydrofoil

    My opinion of fins is that none of the Motor manufacturers have fins on their motors and they don't offer them.

    New Battery Config for 265

    Most of it is the existing 2 awg wire between the OEM switches. I think a bought a couple premade jumpers and I did make some new to reach the gunnel switches. I have a really good electicians crimper. Also, the new zuke motor cables were long and reached the new switches. The feed to the...
