    2520 Trolling Motor addition

    Thanks. I’m gathering as much info as possible about mounting before I decide how I want to mount. Do you have any pics of your mount? Thanks

    2520 Trolling Motor addition

    Very good! The TM is outside of your bow rail? Do you have a top view? Thanks again

    2520 Trolling Motor addition

    The 2320 mount is what I would like to see when you get it. That would be most like my 2520. Thanks

    2520 Trolling Motor addition

    About to add an electric motor for anchor lock and can’t decide on 87” Terrova 110# or the 84” Rhodan 120#. Anyone have a solid review on either? Also, anyone want to share how they mounted one on a 2520 or similar? Thanks

    Offshore trolling motor as anchor

    Doesn’t seem reasonable but does anyone have any info on using the 36V iPilot or Rhodan with Anchor function for offshore positioning? I have a 2520 pilothouse. Thanks for any input. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    300 HP 2320 ??

    Put the F300 on our 2520 last year and almost doubled our range over our old 225. Most efficient cruise is around 4200 for us if it's calm. Gets around 2MPG when conditions are good. Of course that all goes away if you have to drop the trim tabs Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Gas smell in cabin

    We had the same issue some years back. Replaced hoses, gaskets, etc. . Finally cut the deck and was shocked at how many pin holes were in the aluminum tank. The foam was soaking up the gas and the fumes would work into the cabin. Don't mean to discourage you, but that's how it went for us...

    Fuel tank replacement in a 2520

    Well, the tank has a leak. Drained about 7 gallons from the bilge this past weekend. Time to get out the gas cans and the saw. Thinking about replacing the tank with a stainless tank. Why would the factory not use stainless?

    Fuel tank replacement in a 2520

    Did not get the pics but did find about 3 quarts of gas in the bilge. Tried the ballon trick and it worked great. Put it on early in the morning with the temp around 36 and went back that afternoon (65 degrees) and the balloon was standing up. Hope that means a sealed tank. I then refilled the...

    Fuel tank replacement in a 2520

    Sure will. Going to check on it this weekend. Hoping to find no gas in the bilge. I think I will remove the pipe plug that I plugged the hole with to visually check the fuel level in the tank. The tank was brim full when the plug was put in. That might tell me if there is another leak.

    Fuel tank replacement in a 2520

    I am sure that is not the correct term for the fitting. The tank has 2 fittings going to the motors. In our case, one feeds the main outboard and the other fed a kicker motor. The fitting that was rotted was the one feeding the kicker. It was an AL fitting that screwed into the tank plate with a...

    Fuel tank replacement in a 2520

    I like the balloon idea. I will definitely try that this weekend. Why would the company put the tank into a waterproof box? I can't understand why they would not give you some way to check for collected liquids. If I could get to the end of the coffin, would it be disastrous to drill a small...

    Fuel tank replacement in a 2520

    The boat is kept at Mexico Beach, FL so it sits until we get to go check on it. I hope this weekend it will have no more gas in the bilge. How practical would it be to do a pressure test on the tank. I am trying to work out in my mind how to seal the hose connections. I hate the thought of...

    Fuel tank replacement in a 2520

    It is a 1994 model hull, modified vee. The tank is around 105 gallons, I think.
