    Noisy pumps at idle

    Good info...thanks. Do you guys sell the nylon liners? Would this be covered under warranty? This noise is very noticeable in the water.

    Noisy pumps at idle

    It used to be just the port pump that was noisy at idle but now both of them make a lot of racket at idle. I usually go to "No Wake 1" to make them quieter so we can talk. I don't notice any unusual vibration at any other RPM other than idle. Is this normal? I have a 2018 242X with 250...

    Well...it was better than the trip over (if you can believe that). Burned a lot less fuel and following seas (first half) are a lot easier to manage. The last half we still had good winds but the waves were a churned up mess. Luckily only had to stop once to clean the seaweed out of the...

    I wouldn’t wish that crossing on anyone. 2 to 3’ seas the whole way. Boat earned her wings for all the air time we logged. She really needs to work on those landings though So glad I am here but the crossing...oh hell. I deserve some serious medal for that. If only I had a photo of us...

    So you docked at the Sands and taxid to the airport for customs? Why this vs just pulling in to the Game Club to do customs there?

    My landlord was wrong and the website had not been updated yet. So you are correct, it's 7 days.
