To be brief: I'm repowering my 2005 265 Express with a pair of Yamaha F250XCA engines. The original F225TXRDs are both dead. That's a story for later. With the new engines come new harnesses and removal of the shift/throttle cables. I would really like to run the new control lines through rigging hose from the transom to the engines, and would like to see how others have accomplished this. The range of motion of the engines, both for steering and tilt, pose a bit of a challenge to prevent kinking or rubbing on the engine cowlings, the folding transom, and the hoses themselves. If you have pics of a successful re-rig, I'd love to see. Thanks.

SkunkBoat seems to be the go to guy for anything 265 related. Look up his repower thread on here.
