    No reason to Upgrade.....

    No reason to upgrade...according to the marina, I have a 32ft boat. Just received a rate increase from the marina citing they will be charging for overall length instead of the stated 2520XL on my pilothouse. This is standard procedure in this area but ouch...that hurts with really no...

    Gasparilla Fatty

    Instead of joining all the crazies down at Gasparilla this past Saturday I decided to go fishing..Marine forecast called for 2ft seas but they were easy 3-4 ft early in the morning heading out. My destination was about 40 miles out; however, sea conditions dictated pulling up about 10 miles...

I'm assuming that debris probably got lodged in the hose leading to the livewell. I had 2 families on...

    Marina Damaged Engine Cowling

    I keep my boat in a high & dry....last weekend I arrived at my boat to find the Yamaha f225 engine cowling badly damaged. The manager explained that a wave pushed the boat back into the fork lift when they were launching the boat. Definitely an accident and I was furious but held my composure...

    Dime size plug at bottom of keel?

    Question for the experts... While examining the bottom of my 2005-2520XL today, I noticed a dime size-perfectly round plug on the bottom of the keel. It is indented less than fingernail from the surface-about 4ft from the stern. Is this normal? Is it a part of the mold process? Should I be...
