Connecting two 4 way together directly to get 8 ports all right next to each other? with a male and female terminator on the backbone(yellow) ends and on any unused ports? Not realistic. You will need to separate them with a backbone cable because you need to isolate the Suzuki Gauge N2k...

The zuke will need a differnt prop as they are a 4 stroke and also have a different gear ratio than Yamaha. On a single they will always have a 16" dia vs the 15.5" dia on the Yamaha. Zukes usually start with a 3 blade x 16 x 18.5 but it depends on the boat, weight, and they way you use the boat.

hoses look new. maybe PO replaced with the better hoses.

looking at the first picture. You have the higher grade 1500 psi kevlar steering hoses. Do you have a Seastar Tournament Series steering cylinder(s)? They are 1500 psi rated and they use different tie bars than the typical Seastar 1000 psi cylinders/hoses. Just be aware you can't use standard...

Are you rigging the new zukes too or just removing the old yammie stuff?

Its a great boat for a refit and a second life. Thats going to have 2 stroke OX66s probably. They were great reliable engines but now they are 22 years old. They will get 1 mpg at best...plus oil. I would say its definitely not a "first boat". Its gonna take...

Every boat I've ever owned got some amount of mold over a season. Especially in the bilge and hidden areas.

I would suspect the transducer or its connection. Transducer is 20 years old. Don't throw good money after bad. They don't last forever and they lose power and sensitivity over time. If you upgrade to a new MFD get one bundled with a new transducer. Everything has changed since those units...

what do you mean by "erratic? Do you mean it blips off and then boots up again? or is the screen flickering? or is it just the displayed data that is erratic? Is it a Yamaha CL7 or is is a Garmin mfd or other brand mfd?

Wow. Well, I can understand someone saying that based on the breaker because thats what they look like and thats exactly what i though when I saw it. I am surprised that, like all the Grady owning commenters above, they didn't also say "Thats not supposed to be there!". I have an old Grady and...

Yep, no one here is going to be able to tell you what that is. Its not normal. Its not marked and it is not original from "factory" although it might be from "dealer". We are all assuming its a shore AC power breaker based on your dealer's comment and the fact that it looks like the breaker they...

We got a new toy today!!!

look at the wires. The AC inlet will be a Black wire on the breaker. You would be able to follow it to the shore power inlet or galvanic isolator. It would probably be a Black/White/Green triplex cable. Its definitley not "factory" or it would be labeled like every other breaker is labeled...

I think maybe the newest SMG4 gauges can control the troll mode without need of separate Troll Mode switch? not sure. I know they added Auto Trim in 2022. that would be sweet... If its a 2 stroke kicker you will be sick of that crap in no time....

So... you have twin motors and 2 batteries. You say "no house" but that is not correct. One of them is doubling as the house and start, probably the Starboard battery (#1). Do you have one or two switches? If you could post the diagram from your manual that would help. What size batteries are...

If the grounds to the tanks are missing the gauges will not work. Possibly wires never got back on batteries?

I troll stripers as low as 3 mph with one motor & autopilot, in the ocean with a breeze & waves. It'll probably do less if you run one, trim it up a bit and trim the dead one down all the way. Dunno how well AP will work going idle speed if there is any kind of waves or wind. I absloutely hate...

something to consider after you find your problem...separate your House from your Start. I won't go into detail but it can be done using an Aux Chargiing cable from your Yamaha or using a separate "battery isloator" or using a VSR/ACR relay. What you get is a start battery that does nothing but...

you previously said "....Then I ran trim tab power cable directly to battery selector switch and ran trim tab ground cable directly to battery ground. Everything works fine now. My plan is to run the trim tab power cables permanently this way...." Is the trim tab still direct to battery? It...
