    What I would try first is remove the left side cable nut and keeper. Move cable up to left arm not being used and use keeper and nut above. Even if it only fits in the same spot as one on right and see if that gives you 3 inch

    Jeanneau prestige 36 2001

    Don't think it's the fuel pump right now with info provided. Fuel lines over time can start to degrade and a slight smell can start, but in most cases unless the line is cracking it's of no issue (being your under 2 inch away) This is helpful, I would look at having the injectors cleaned and...

    New SeaRay owner (Sundancer 250) with some basic questions

    Installing flush mount rod holders shouldn't be much of an issue if the width is available The door stop is made from some kind of plastic. Don't know where you can find something that thick but @Scott Danforth might. Many have installed kickers but don't think it will be much of a backup. If...
