265

Anyone know what this thing circled in yellow is? Its connected to the back side of the perko switch. Its from a 2002 GW 265 Express

So...........After developing a nice lil hole in the top of my front tank I finally got all the fuel out to start the process of removing the old tanks. Let me tell you, disposing of anything more than 5 gallons of bad fuel in California is impossible!! I had to get rid of 120 so i burned a...

So from my original post last year of my first ocean run in my 265, I mentioned I was having a stalling issue when running on my main tank. Would happen pretty randomly. Sometimes pretty quick, sometimes after running a while. Would generally start out the day running on the main, and if it...

Didn't think to take a picture which would probably make this easier but I'm looking for information on the hinges that connect the two pieces of the smoked acrylic that form the upper hatch cover for the entry into the cabin on my 265. The hinges are intact but the hinge pin from one is...

2000 265 wiper mechanism, not the motor, but the part on the outside of the boat. Anyone know if that is a somewhat generic part or grady specific?

Hi all. Looking to purchase a 265 Express and see most have 200HP Yamaha with either I-4 or V6 and some 225HP. Does anyone have experience with the 200HP I-4 (inline 4)? Wondering if it would be quite underpowered? What’s normal cruising speed and rpm with the 200’s? Would you recommend holding...

Looking for feedback from 265 drivers running 4-blade props. Fished on a buddy's 228 recently and he unfortunately spun the prop on our way offshore in the morning, it was a pressed hub and not something we could fix. Got back in fine and the good news is that the local prop shop loaned him...

Any thoughts on this one - out fishing today and on three separate occasions I got an overheat alarm on the port engine (2015 F250, 3.3L block), shut it off, restart and it was fine until the next time; after the third time I left it off for good and just trolled around on one until we picked up...

After 15 years my berth cushions are in need of replacement. However, I don't want to spend the money to have them redone only to go back to using them as a base for storing gear and tackle bags, which is one thing that's contributed to their current state. So, I'm looking at something like...

Pulled the trigger this off-season on the electronics overhaul I'd been planning for a while. Gutted the outdated and disparate systems (1st pic), displays, wiring, pretty much everything and replaced with a complete Raymarine setup including a pair of 12" Axiom displays (one Pro model that has...

Now that I've figured out how to resize and post photos I thought I'd share a few from some of the off-season projects on my 265 over the last two winters. A lot of the work was wiring and is out of sight but it was a rat's nest under the dash and in the electronics boxes. I now know and have...

The inboard side of my transom gate is missing one of the little rubber bumpers that contact the deck when in the down position. Have come up empty at every place I've looked so far. Anyone have a suggestion on where I could go to get a replacement? Thanks. Brett

I've been looking at the 265 Express for quite some time now as it looks to fit my requirements better than anything else and have really appreciated all the discussion on this board thus far. I have a question though that I haven't seen raised before and am looking for some input from 265...
