That sealant is there to keep water from getting into that area from the outside. And if you add that rod holder then the water that drains through it to the inside will not have anywhere to go. I would keep things simple and mount the rod holder in the gunnel at the bottom right corner of your...

Also factor in the drain for the bait tank. I've been pretty happy with this washdown pump so far but it's only been about a year. Others like the jabsco hot shot but it wasn't in stock when I was shopping https://defender.com/en_us/whale-high-pressure-washdown-pump-with-trigger-handset

Biggest issue is the short wheelbase of the 2 door jeep. You have enough power to pull, but less control of weight shifting and being pushed by the trailer around corners and for stopping. Downhill you'll probably feel the trailer trying to push you around when you brake. And I'd upgrade the...

Both engines throwing the same code makes it less likely it’s a sensor or engine issue. At 3500 rpm and 27 mph you could definitely pick up some sargassum that would fall off by the time you stop or get back to the dock. Also, does that pic shows 5.7 mph and 2600 rpm? Were you running at that...

Agreed it sounds like it's not overheating. Possibly a lemon sensor but not lemon engines. Did your display say it was an overheat alarm? Did they use a diagnostic and confirm (and give you a printout) that the alarm was for overheat? I'd be curious to make that confirmation in the logged...

Hard way but better result: Clean out existing holes grind away gel coat on the inside around those holes and surrounding area to add new layers of fiberglass (maybe 8" x 8") Clean it all up then tape the outside Fill the holes with thixo or similar After that sets, run a few layers of...

Do you have a cap on the dash circled in red like the pic below? If so, verify behind the dash that it still has the tube that leads to the helm. Some older helms had the fill behind the dash and so they had this remote fill cap.

Do you have the triangle knob? The hatch adjuster is basically this sea dog hatch adjuster product but they use a custom piece for the joint that attaches at the bottom to get an extra 90 degree turn. The knob should be the same though. I think Parker sources their stuff through Advantec marine...

I think a lot of livewell bait tanks have a bypass before the pump for the washdown pump. You'd need to verify the size of the fittings. And others can chime in on what they think is the best seacock set up. (washdown connects to yellow, and tank connects to red) You'll get a lot of...

What vehicle are you towing with? You’ve already done more maintenance than 95% of people so kudos on that. Check your line fittings are tight and not losing fluid there. If you have a vac and can bleed the brakes without too much work then I think you’ve gone above and beyond, but wouldn’t...

Looks great! Just a thought - I would consider rounding off the edges of the new bulkhead thing with a router like you did with the cup holder. I'm always amazed at how anyone falling down or needing to suddenly steady themselves always finds a sharp corner to make contact with.

Is the plastic just bolted on? I would think you could order an hpde panel and trim it to the same shape and bolt it on. Just get it thick enough to support the weight. Or check with a marine shop. If the panel is not too big they might cut one for a decent price.

The guy at propgods seems to have the best info and recommendations. This thread below is for a Deep V, but it's a twin 200 set up. I'd probably talk to and order from the propgods guy just for the peace of mind that you could swap out the props if they don't achieve what you're looking for...

I'd think something in the 60's. A newish motor and newish fuel tank should address the biggest concerns a person might have. I'd go ahead and fix/replace the things you know aren't working. Buyers are going to be looking for a turnkey boat in that price range, not something that needs some...

I hit all that adhesive with 80 grit to knock most of the easy loose stuff off then vacuumed all the left over dust. Sand paper in hand for the corners but don't get too picky. Primer will cover it so don't worry about getting every last bit of the adhesive. I used rustoleum boat primer and...

This forum is a good resource, but Google is your friend also.

Double strakes should mean a 21 degree deadrise. Best bet is to verify yourself. Measure the angle of the keel at the stern. Either use an iphone "Level" or an angle finder. measure both sides then average to cancel out any tilt caused from being on the trailer...

Mounted my back up below the binnacle. Its been a minute, but I think this one had to be hooked up to stbd antenna due to the length of the cord so measure that out if you’re considering this.
