I did an upgrade last year Gulfstream to Salifish. It took a little getting use to the twins over a single, beleive me once you get the hang of docking with them you will never look back on the single. Do you have a bow thruster on the 305?
Good Luck with it

Larry,

We have a 2008 305 Express w/ F250's....and absolutely love the boat! Did you go with the 350's or 250's? If you have any questions at all about the boat feel free to ask anytime! Here are some pics of my electronics setup......On the left I have the Furuno 1834C NavNet2 with DFF1 sounder and 4 KW 36nm Radome and on the right I have the Garmin 4212 w/XM weather....and the Autopilot is the Simrad AP26. I love the setup!
