    Rear Clean out access hatch latch cam bar broke

    Did you measure end to end or center of hole to end? I measured 2 1/4” for total length so I ordered the 226SO part #.

    Repairing and Overhauling a 2010 242 LS (pic heavy)

    @Ronnie doesn’t have the late model jet nozzles that direct some of the reverse flow to the sides, which as I understand it is part of the TDE. As Will at JBP described it, using the no wake mode switch to increase the rpm’s while the levers are in the TDE position is what makes it work better...

    Can’t decide between two boats, same model, same price

    I wouldn't be so quick to jump on the #2 boat bandwagon just yet. I seem to remember a new member here recently asking about a boat that had sat in saltwater for a year. If that were the case, would you still pick Boat #2? I guess my point is that boat #1 could be the better buy depending on how...

    Started wet sanding the hull today. Oxidization was very noticeable, weather is nice and the boat batteries are dead so it’s a perfect day to tackle this job, charge the batteries and ditch the IL registration #’s for AL ones.

    Generic LiFePo Battery Question......

    @Bruce ~15min of pretty consistent full throttle use brought us down to the below numbers 12.87 RS 13.25 LS 26.14 Combined I'm pretty certain it's a 24V 400W 350W motor in there. It has two settings but only one works (not sure why), so it might be reduced power. *edit* It's a 350W motor...

    Yamaha Finance Issues Again

    Past 3 weeks I've been dealing with their incompetence. They are horrible and clueless. I have all confirmations and transaction #s from my Credit Uniom autopay and they still claim I missed a payment and charged a late fee. They still haven't rectified it. As much I hate these Mother Fers I'm...

    Hauling your boat

    Fish 210 said -Tow ratings includes people and cargo-in the vehicle and the hitch weight of the trailer. That is not your tow rating but is included in your GCWR - Gross Combined Weight Rating. Two different #s. Tow rating only includes the weight of what you are towing such as trailer and boat...

    Depth Finder Installer near Philly

    You are correct, I had to cut a pretty decent size hole in the transom to allow for the transducer cable end (double split end for side view and down view) and fish that up to the dash, just make sure there is no plumbing or exhaust you may drill into. I used the Garmin mount and was able to...
