265 has pockets for tabs. Tab actuators are special short ones. Last I looked the Bennett Auto/Indicator tab kit would not work on the short actuators Are Seakeeper going to work there or do you have to fill the tab pockets? IMO Can't justify $4500 for seakeeper tabs on an old 265. Rides...

I have used wax on my white Zukes. Takes the brown water line off.

Don't want to rehash everything in the battery thread but here are the benefits On/OFF switches under gunnels- never have to remove tubs to switch on/off House+12V- separated from starting batteries, parallel pair of Deep Cycle 24DC charge from aux cables from both motors, Marine resettable...

I had a thread on AP and one on Hose fittings. Using Parker field replaceable fittings can save you $$ on hoses. Not all hose is the same. read up on that in those posts. You should power your AP direct back to battery switch (fused). You want it using its own wire so it doesn't drop the...

I have Garmin so, as was said , things are called Clearvu vs Down scan and Sidevu vs Sidescan. The other mode is "Traditional" as in "Old School red blob" I rarely use the Clearvu(DownScan). Mostly because never got used to it. It is useful for when on a wreck. I have seen some nice fish...

You are going to have a fuse panel under the dash and one in the hardtop. I suggest replacing them if they are original.

There is a lot to consider when choosing a transducer. Not just CHIRP and Frequency and power Look at SIZE. Bigger means bigger ceramic element(s) and that means more transmit power and better sensitivity receiving echos. The difference is usually 5 or 10 times the sensitivty as you go up...

I don't fog my 4 strokes. Have to pull plugs. If I'm gonna pull all plugs, I'm gonna change them. If I'm changing them I don't want fogging oil on new plugs.... Definitely check the gear oil for water now. Just crack the drain loose til it drips. If its nice oil, it can wait til spring. BUT...

Just crack the drain loose til something drips out. If it has sat for any time, any water will be at the bottom. If water drips out or milky oil drips out, tighten it back and take it for new seals asap. Do that now! Don't wait til spring to find out you need it serviced. If the oil looks good...

Apple Air Tag?

I think its recycled crushed glass...and maybe some water mist to knock dust down? https://lodatoblasting.com/services/boat-bottom-paint-removal/

That was all done by the guy. He spent an hour masking and laying down sheeting and taping it. Very methodical. It all rolled up into manageable sacks to pick up and take away with him. In NJ, Lodato mobile sandblasting

I have done the 9.9 to 20 hp suzuki change. It was a 16ft aluminum setup like a bass boat. Remote steering and throttle. In NJ, almost all lakes are limited to 9.9HP if they allow gas at all. So buying a 20hp was not an option. The change required an ECM, a throttle plate and a new prop...

You did not mention which unit you have now. and which transducer? Will you be keeping that as part of your setup? What size boat? where/how do you fish? Will you have radar? The GPSMAP 943xsv is IMO the best bang for buck on a smaller boat. It has most of the features of the top of the line...

I really should use this oppurtunity to lift off motors and deal with the transom trim and get new barrier coat under motors.

I will do 3(or more) expoxy coats to get the barrier thickness to spec. Then follow with 2 coats of ablative bottom paint. 3 if it needs it for coverage. I will never use hard paint again. (FYI, the POs original hard paint is what was flaking...) Biggest benefit of ablative is you can delay...

Yes 6" is the size of the OPENING of the unit. If you measure across the whole thing it looks like 8". DO NOT ORDER 8" Ask me how I know....
