    Impeller change interval

    I have a 2021 Yamah 300 HP 2021 with about 125 hours. The manual says to change the impeller at 300 hours. I am looking for input from others to see if doing it sooner is advisable.

    Trim tab zincs

    I keep my 25 Parker on a mooring ball, hence no shore power. I find it unusual that at the end of every season that my zincs are pretty well depleted and gone at times. Anyone else have the same issue? Not sure why that happens. I never had an issue on other boats.

    Garmin Shuts down unexpectedly

    I know what the problem is, but I do not know how to fix it. If I make a transmission on my VHF my Garmin shits down. When I first got the boat I had this issue and the installer told me to move the negative for the Garmin to the other buss bar. It worked fine. What I just found out was that the...

    Fuel consumption

    I own a 2020 2520 XLC powered with a single Yamaha 300HP. I am curious as to what others are getting for fuel consumption. I know that there are many factors that affect consumption.

    Bottom Paint

    This was discussed many times, but it is that time of year. I wanted to apply a good coating to the engine bracket. The bottom paint does not seem to prevent a lot of the barnacle build up. I saw a product mentioned on a previous thread and thought I wrote down what it was, but can't find the...

I have watched videos etc. and still can't figure out why I get fuel remaining as a percentage on one screen and on another screen I get get gallons remaining, but it is...

    Fuel line size

    I am setting up a small remote tank to use a fuel/fogging oil mix to winterize my boat. Without having to go to the boat and disconnect and measure, does anyone know the size of the fuel line that has the siphon bulb on it? I have a 2520 2021 300HP Yamaha.

    Garmin 8612 tied to Yamaha 300

    I have a 2020 2530 with a 300 HP Yamaha. I connected the Yamaha info to the Garmin using the J39 input on the Garmin. I connected to primarily get an accurate fuel remaining readout on the Garmin, which takes the fuel on board that you enter manually and it deducts the fuel used via the fuel...

    Connecting new Yamaha to 8612 Garmin

    Has anyone gone through this process? It seems simple, but information is scarce. I purchased a cord that plugs into the J-1939 jack on the Garmin and it has a (did not know until I got it) a male end for the Yamaha buss. So I need a connector with two female ends so I can plug into the buss...
