I have 2 inlets in rear of transom as you can see from below picture.
One at the bottom is my main bilge drain. The one above it and to the right is an inlet for a live well that fills up when boat goes in the water.
I never use the well really and to be honest I am worried about something...
Was thinking of possibly getting one of those DC Solar Charging panels. Any thoughts on them? My current configuration is 2 batteries to a switch (wiring setup diagram below) Since I have 2 batteries would I need 2 of the solar panel charging units or would one suffice? And if one..... how would...
Can anyone recommend a good company for a T-Top replacement cover for my 1989 Robalo 2320 CC?
Looking for someone I can ship the existing top to in order to use as a template for the new one which i would like in Blue plus have some extra holes with Grommets in the center for the mounting of...
So this was my first year winterizing the boat - Yamaha OB 225hp Saltwater Series with EFI
Took it to service center for winterizing a bit earlier that I wanted to because I had some vacation plans so with that being said there was still approximately 30 gallons of gas in tank.
Every time I...
So probably a stupid question but here it goes anyway...
New to trailering and ramp use. No problems with loading boat in the water but the last couple of times I have loaded my boat it seems to always be crooked on the trailer. I think this is mainly due to the fact that I am backing my...
Single outboard and putting in a 4 position battery switch. Having boat repowered next week so thought this would be a good time to get the switch in before going for the motor to be installed.
Couple of questions...
1. According to the diagram I need to run a jumper cable between my...
OK So here it goes...
1989 Robalo 2320, center console walk around (no cuddy cabin). It is 23' with an 8' Beam. Both engines are outboard Mariner V6 150's (1989) with a 25" shaft.
Both engines ran strong when I test drove the boat.... had it out with an full open throttle for almost 45...
So I ran my boat for the first time the other day while it was in the water at my local service center where they were putting some new rollers on my trailer. I have twin 1989 Mariner 150's and noticed that my starboard engine was a bear to start and stalled out on me a few times when out on...
Just picked up a used "Working" tilt trim unit for my 1989 Mariner 150HP (post here before about the tilt/trim pump not taking my engine up fully to the tilt position due to the large center piston failure unless I help it up)
The unit I just bought is a 2 wire system. Dont have the boat with...
Can anyone recommend a half decent electric winch?
Boat is a 23' Robalo - according to Nada hull weight is 3120 pounds with twin Mariner 150's (approx 400# each) coming to a total of 3,920 pounds without gear.
Is there are sort of calculation or guide online to figure what the optimum location of boat should be on trailer? Meaning roller location and how much is acceptible to be hanging off back past the last set of roller?
Started having a trouble with my 1989 Mariner 150 HP Tilt Trim
I have 2 sets of pistons. Smaller set takes engine up (assuming to the trim positions) - when they max out the single larger piston takes over and takes it to the tilt position.
Once my 2 smaller pistons max out I hear the larger...
Started with losing all steering (89 Twin Mariner 150's)
Checked my resevoir for power steering at the wheel and added until full and steering came back. Saw my transom just below the power steering unit was damp and it appears I have a leak. So slow of a leak I stared at it for a while and...
