    Windows replacement

    boy this topic really caught my eye. I have diamond seaglaze front windows on my 2520 that are leaking and pitted, and have me really shaking my head. I have the same question as Brent can you share the rough cost of the windows from diamond seaglaze? Very interested in seeing the...

    forward bilge thru hull, 2520 pilot house

    Hey guys - quick question. I have a 2003 2520XL pilot house and noticed the other day that the thru hole on the forward bilge outlet had broken off. It was the OEM plastic thru hole. (see pic attachment) The thru hole is broken off and the hose from the bilge pump is basically hanging by the...

    Offshore Requirements - What's Really Needed?

    I have been running offshore on single engines my whole life on single gas inboards, I/o's, diesels and now a single 225 yammy. The key to me is maintenance, knowing the boat, seas, crew and weather. Most commercial fishing boats are a single diesel chugging along day after day. Only had one...

    Seaspension Reviews

    Thanks for the input guys. It looks like they sold the designs and rights to taco, and there went the price. I can't justify the costs right now either, guess I missed the boat. Hope they come back down, we'll see. Good to hear from you Jim! Hope you are well. I guess you see that I moved...

    Frustrated and confused - diagnostic software

    Mine is an 03, and has been checked for dry exhaust corrosion, last scope was 100 hours ago. The problem I am chasing now is oil pressure at low idle. Lord I hate idiot gauges, sure wish these things had discrete instruments!

    Frustrated and confused - diagnostic software

    Wow thanks Brent. I looked on eBay and did see several aftermarket kits ranging in price from 400 to 100 dollars. Always nervous, but sim yamaha wants that much for the yamaha connector alone. I guess it is time to jump off the fence. My yamaha f225 started to give me some funky behavior...

    Frustrated and confused - diagnostic software

    Hey all - does anyone know a source for outboard diagnostics software? I have a yamaha f225 that is aging on my 2520xl and a newer Suzuki df90 on my skiff. I have been looking but really can't find a straight answer. Sim sells a connector for the yamaha's but not the software. It seams they...

    Seaspension Reviews

    Reviving this thread. Very interested in this product. Question to seaspension owners, are they holding up well? Any issues I should know about? Do they really perform as well as the reviews are saying? Getting older, pounding hurts!

    Bilge hatch cracked

    Jim - say it isn't so! No more Mango Tango?! :( :(. What are you going to do now? Well one thing for sure, you have plenty of folks to take you out fishing. I don't see you going through snapper withdrawls! I am sure it was bittersweet to see her pull off. Hope you got a good fair price...

    Bilge hatch cracked

    the beckson hatches are only available in white now :( I called them today since I could not find any other color on line. They said they ran a beige and an ivory one and really did not get sales traction. I am going to go ahead and get the white one, hope it does not look too bad. The price...

    Bilge hatch cracked

    I am really glad to hear you have a clean bill of health! Also glad the tango is off the market - you two are a famous pair around here, hate to see you separated! Did not think about a different opening size on the 25 vs the 23. I was going to order the same hatch you identified. Can...
