    Throttle cable replacement ?

    My boat is 10 years old and my cables are ready to be replaced. I have a 2000 2520SLD with twins. Have any of you replaced your cables ?? Any lessons learned or suggestions ? Looks like a poor design from the controls as the cables are making a really tight turn out to where they run under the...

    2510 what you seeing for speed

    That sounds slow.....i have 2520 with 200 Yammi 2-strokes and will see 30mph at 3800 rpm. This is with the engines moderately trimmed up.

    Repower 2520 DVSC from twins to single

    Thanks to everyone for their input.....i went with the f150's. I can use my existing controls (probably not the tach's) and they agreed to include S&S props. This gets me on the water reasonably quickly and is (hopefully) as good as a new repower at less than half the cost

    Repower 2520 DVSC from twins to single

    My buddy just did a rebuild on a 225 and all said and done it cost him over $6k and was out of commission 5 weeks.....I want to get back on the water and be done with this. I would always look at the other 11 year old motor as a ticking bomb.

    Repower 2520 DVSC from twins to single

    I have been investigating all sorts of lower cost (no such thing as low cost) repower options and came across a pair if 2005 Yamaha F150's with 400 hours and a 90 day warranty. I can get the pair for $11k with my existing motors as a trade. Seems as though all my controls should work except...

    Repower 2520 DVSC from twins to single

    I have 2000 2520 dvsc with twin yamaha 200's and just blew my starboard motor. I am considering all options and was wondering if anyone knew if its possible to repower with a big single using the existing Armstrong bracket ? Repower with twins is big $$ and for the boating I do, a single is...

    Leaving the boat on the water for the winter

    I am thinking of leaving mine in the water too. I put a new coat of ablative paint on in the spring, will I need to pull and repaint next spring or will I be ok with existing paint ?

    To Twin or not to Twin

    I have twin 200 Yammies on a 25 xld. Would prefer a big single to reduce operating and maintenance costs. Additionally, I think an F-250 or a Suzuki 300 will push that boat nicely.

    Need help from the Maryland boys!!!

    Most Tackle shops carry it, even West Marine (I think). It's $40 for the year ... In Annapolis I could point you to a few places. Try calling a few tackle shops nearby to where you dock your boat, I bet they have them. Regards, Rich

    First nice fish !

    I have only met Kevin once, but from the looks of his boat I believe he may be afraid to bloody those pretty decks (and bilge) :lol:
