265 repower

[Saltyone]

Well, they are making progress in the repower. Wiring, gauges, and binnacle are all complete. Hopefully will be hanging the engines tomorrow.



Need to thank Skunk as I took most of his gauge placement from his repower. With the trim tab switch next to the ignition key.

Were your throttles originally on the left?

No, same place as the new ones

Looks very nice. I'm sure they know it, but ensure the bolts are well caulked to ensure zero water penetration.

must be confused by the Kicker motor throttle?

Yeah, 1/2" starboard for the upper piece and 3/16" ABS for the panel to the lower right

So you're done? Have been for a ride?

 

[Saltyone]

The boat is home, and it's done for the most part. The only issue we're having is with tying in the kicker to the main steering. The attachment points for the kicker steering cable are not working, so I may need to fabricate a bracket or something to get them to work together or just remove the kicker if its not going to work.

Haven't had it out yet as I'm trying to finish up some other things on it. Hoping to maybe get it out this weeked.
