    Replace Fridge with AC. What challenges to expect?

    Just to give you a heads up. The fridge also works without shore power! Don't get rid of that thing. Put the a/c where the factory had it originally.

    Gulfstream Cabin Rod Storage

    Hey ridge runner, just an update. CaptBill reached out to me yesterday and sent me a whole bunch of photos from his boat, can't thank Bill enough he went above and beyond. The Marina I do my yearly service at should be able to fabricate these for me (timeline unknown due to the Virus). I'm going...

    I have the original a to my 282 sailfish. Here are a couple of pictures. It's dusty from storage, but it'll clean up nice.

    Can't find cabin rod holders!

    I came across a few very old post about the Rod storage - folding cabin rack (6), that was optional on some the Grady's, my 282 included. I can't seem to source them! I know a few people a while back made them. Any pictures installation tips even sketches would be a great help I really want...

    Update on cabin rod-racks.

    I just found this thread, are still available to purchase? I have a 2001 sailfish. This thread is so old I can't even see the pictures of what it looks like!

    2005 282 Sailfish Moisture Issue

    If you're able to get access to the boat again please take my advice on this and do the method I told you earlier about shining a very bright spotlight from the outside. You will be able to see through it and tell if there's some kind of delamination or rot going on. If I wasn't stuck in the...

    Can't get full throttle on F225 4.2L

    Ok just wanted to make sure it wasn't the obvious considering it was a new install. I remember I thought I had the same issue as you, but turned out I was burried and bad props. Point being is I asked my yammy tech to confirm the throttle sensor was operating correctly and all I know is that...

    2005 282 Sailfish Moisture Issue

    Exactly Dennis! That's a very odd place to get moisture readings! How does it sound when tapped with a mallet? Also from the area you describe you or the surveyor should be able to inspect a good portion of that area from the inside! If you go in the aft berth (under the stairs) there's a very...

    2005 282 Sailfish Moisture Issue

    Can you be more specific on the location... pictures? Was the boat in the water when tested with a meter? Was there or has there been any repair to this area? Is there anything that could be causing this reading? You need to ask and answer these questions before going forward. I say this...

    2002 282 sailfish ac..?

    The original a/c was located under the aft berth, behind the stairs. There's a floor panel in that berth where the unit sat. You're pickup should be in the aft bilge port side if I'm not mistaken and the pump out would be in the forward bilge port side (directly opposite of the toilet pick up)...

    State shut downs and marinas

    No ban in NYC yet. They probably know that nobody is going to listen anyway. I'm kinda shocked any states are banning it to begin with to be honest. The only exception to this would be commercial party boats. Not sure if there's anything more distant than being on a boat. The only people on my...

    Jabsco manual repair

    I have a jabsco manual pump for my 2001 sailfish, the jabsco model is for the years 1998 to 2007 I believe( light blue sticker). I have a small leak at the top which I understand is common and easy to repair etc. Also the pump has been always stiff to operate and I figured I would need an entire...

    Yamaha F225 Anode

    Do you have twins or single? Hydraulic steering or cable? My understanding is the fin is really for single outboard with cable steering to offset any steering issues from the propeller thrust. A few places still sell them but you have to confirm with them before you purchase that they're not...

    When it goes wrong!

    That nose looked very low from the start, then to make matters worse he rode the front of the wave. That's nuts
