    ...weekly for updates. Received the same story as everyone else: #1) Yamaha is asking questionnaire to all with this issue to figure our root cause. #2) Yamaha is sending rep out to marina to look at boat #3) Yamaha is conducting investigations with batch plant over seas for gel coat materials...

    08 AR230 Pissers not working

    Okay good news I think but still questions. The good news I think both lines were actually plugged with seaweed (see attached photo #2). It was far down the line and close to the motor. I had to use 18ga galvanized wire to push through it. Then I disconnected the line at the motor and ran...

    Lake St. Clair Meetup

    ...Hwy->Sni->Baltimore Hwy through the flats from Brown2s is a smooth path to Naked Bay just north of North Island and Baltimore Hwy (NE of your #2). Note, Fisher Bay in average water level years can be too shallow (less than a foot) but the water level this year is still appx 18-20" higher...

    210 FSH Aft Sun Shade Kit?

    ...up cancelling my order for the Yamaha Aft Shade since it's been MIA for a few months and instead I just received the OS Bimini Extension Kit. I purchased the wider version (6.8' #2) so we'll see how much overlap there will be over/under the t-top and if I can use for both the bow and aft areas.

    1.8L exhaust manifold dumping water.

    doing a little more research, here is the cooling water flow, this is for a 192 with a intercooler (I believe is #2) but other than that it should be the same for yours, I'm confused because you can see the water input at the bottom of the exhaust sleeve and it appears to take some water a...

    Screwed up and found the sand bar.

    ...depth. It's done that before. Shutting the power off and resetting it always gets it to wake up. I'll do that when we stop for dinner. (Mistake #2). I give my wife my iPad with the local chart on it but she has her distance contacts in and can't read it. Oh, well, there are boats upstream...

    2019 242 Limited SE - Bimini Cover Question

    ...@BigAbe75) the ratchet is on the outside of passenger compartment ?? By bringing the rear port side strap in just above electrical connector (pic #2) it will allow for wraping the ratchet in its pouch and tucking inside the big flap. I know it all sounds confusing but will be obvious when you...

    07 to 09 230 Series Shift Cable Replacement

    ...for various reasons (see below). Some more tips: 1. Where the cable goes through the hull on the outside, there is a rubber grommet (labeled #2) shown in the image below I stole from @bronze_10 that goes into the through-hull fitting (labeled #1) seals the hull a bit and keeps the cable...

    What would you do to this Hull?

    ...- so I am thinking its been there for a while. Clearly demonstrating that just as we all know . . . #1) the Yamaha boats are great for beaching. #2) Keel Guard would have been helpful (other please use this picture as evidence you need to buy some things for the boat). The damage doesn't...
