There is a valve (I think)in the tank tap that does not allow free flow maybe anti -siphon, but was wondering to add a true fuel shut off valve in-line. I was thinking of just adding a in-line brass shut off just before the water separator filter. :?:

Update :o now that I have gotten to use: 20' of 5/16 and a #8 worked fine in average conditions, wnds up to 10 Kts. Just haven't anchored in higher winds yet. After all is said and done, it seems an equal trade off of lighter anchor for more chain or heavier anchor and less chain. The heavier...

Wow 3 in one life time is awesome. I see going back to a cabin model from CC, share any thoughts on this ....

Although not this model, I run two transducers, one on each side of the OB engine. Works great and spreads them out nicely for reducing interference.

at least on my boat...the wheel hub, rocker panel, and other flush mounted items were not sealed off with anything so any rain dripped right in. I used GE silicone in almond color, direct match, to seal these items but not glue down. That being said it did reduce the rain drip around the wheel...

I started to have a problem with the fuel gauge showing an inaccurate reading. The tank was empty and filled, but the gauge only showed a few of the read about bars on the gauge. After burning about 30 gals, the gauge showed the correct reading on the yamaha gauge. Once it did not read out at...

I was in the box store buying sand paper for the annual bottom painting and ran into a builder friend of mine. He quickly pointed me to the dry wall section to buy wire mesh, not sand paper, and a swivel head to hold on a roller stick. 120 grit( out of 80) did the whole bottom with one sheet of...

the idea to store in a non-other use area, freeing up other spaces is a good one. Do you have high water alarm or other device? I would always like a clean view of the bilge area for safety reasons.

Paker Jr. What size chain do you use ? Would anyone think I should 5 more feet of 5/16 or run maybe 10 feet of 1/4 stepping down like Spartan suggest, great ideas, thanks.

It is great to have owners of the same boat providing information ! I can say that a #8 and 10' of 5/16 did not hold my boat, so I am hoping 20' of 5/16 will do the job with the smaller #8 . I will ever wonder why that anchor locker was designed the way it was :?:

I started with a #8 as that only fits in the locker( this design is my only peeve with the boat). Then I cut a #13 bars down to fit the locker. This worked very well, but the #13 got a little old when anchoring a lot like in flounder fishing. I just went back to a #8 but with 20' of 5/16 chain...

Check the for sale or wanted section on this site to get a real good idea. Only a guess, below 30 is a steal above 50 is high. As far as add-on's don't focus on these, boat, motor, trailer and their service level of condition is where the value is.

with wipers too ! awesome :D

If you go forward with this project post some pics. I am also looking to add outriggers and the factory stated the same to me that the plates are OK for mounting the bases on.

2008, and now 21's have them too. I think both as an option over the "sportsman" console that does not have the potty

use a photo resizing tool in PC or in Mac preview to make the photo smaller as there are limits in the bytes to post.

you can't bait us like that with no pics, let's see her. Glad another 2300 is in the house

add clips both sides, not just one side like the factory did. Before the console had a porta potty, a port potty could be stowed here and then pulled out for a en plein air potty. West Marine has a set of the clips. It's the kind that a screw head clips into a plastic prong looking thing a ma...

Please post how the Fortress works as I am still searching for the right combination. Having the larger console and big T-top it picks up the wind. I have not used a Fortress but can tell the #8 danforth style didnt hold. I used a #13 cut the flukes to fit the anchor locker and she holds fast...

Wow that's clean
