    Shore Power on 2002 Marlin 300

    Look for a galvanic isolator which usually has a switch. Typically located under the gunwale near where the receptacle is located.

    Garmin 17xd GPS Antenna location

    To see if you actually have one attached pull up your communications menu on your MFD and it will show you if you have one and whether it is communicating with your chart plottler.

    Garmin 17xd GPS Antenna location

    Grady does not typically outfit the electronics. That is typically done by the dealer so standardization is not there. Most GPS antennas do not require a clear view to the sky these days. Also most modern MFDs have internal antennas and do not require an external antenna such as the 17xd. Are...

    Boating after dark - options?

    Also consider maintaining your eye’s night vision as much as possible. Prior to getting underway allow for dark adaptation. Keep your interior and MFD lights to the very minimum. . Use no white interior lights and be careful not to allow your spotlight to reflect off the bow. One bright flash in...

    2009 Yamaha 250 water leaking into cowling/cooling line to nowhere

    You did not tell us the horsepower, year or model number of your motor. Makes it difficult to diagnose. Most larger Yamaha four strokes have a fuel cooler via a waterline like that. Could be that waterline goes to your fuel cooler, but hard to tell given no other information.

    Yamaha Gauges

    Depends a lot on the motors year and model. Modern motors have the hours store to the ECU. If your gauges are digital, that would be a very weird occurrence. What year motors, size, and 6Y5? 6Y8? Analog? what type gauges?

    SHURflo Diafram Pumps Model # 8050-204-133

    Interesting that you have two pumps for freshwater, so you have a total of three pumps, two for freshwater and one for raw water? There must be two separate freshwater systems then. The key is to make sure you have water to the inlet side of the pump. Determine which side is the inlet and which...

    SHURflo Diafram Pumps Model # 8050-204-133

    I highly doubt that you have two pumps that provide pressure to your “freshwater” system. My guess is one provides raw water pressure to the washdown system and the other provides your freshwater to the sink laboratory and probably the transom shower station. My 330 has one pump for each raw...

    Re-powered my 2007 330 from 3.3 F250s to F300 4.2s, two years ago. Now have over 250 hours on them. 17p props from my old 250s were too high-pitched to get enough WOT RPM went with lower pitch 15p and economy is 1.0 to 1.2 fully loaded, but seeing significantly higher cruise sppeds. 27 kts at...

    Garmin Radar & Isenglass

    Having had both the solid state and the magnetron radars from Garmin, highly recommend the solid-state Fantom radar. It is head and shoulders better than the magnetron versions. With regard to the enclosure question, I have purchased several items through Sale Rite including one of their sewing...

    Lower unit oils

    If by “dry” you mean no oil and/or water, then it didn’t leak, it wasn't refilled after draining. Annually or every 100 hours I do mine and if I find water (milky oil) I fix the leak.

    Shore power question:

    The shore power plug at the transom will have a little red light that will be illuminated if there is power available at that plug. You will also see AC Power indicated on your AC/DC switch panel. Your battery charger is designed to maintain the batteries and charge them if they are discharged...

    Onboard battery charger

    I have had that same charger in the four bank model for years now. Works great! Knock on wood! Pro tournament engineers back then recommended to me that I use a four bank version for my two parallel banks with 2 batteries in parallel for each bank. They said the charger knows the difference...
