    Tilt & Trim Issue

    The boat is winterized, covered, and up on blocks next to my house. When the friction washers come in, ill install them and make sure everything is working properly, if not, it goes to the dealer.

    Tilt & Trim Issue

    The parts needed for repair are on national back order and will not be available until sometime after the new year. They tried adding caps on the tilt and trim pistons and that didn’t fix it. They told me new friction washers are the parts from the 350 engines and are supposed to be the fix. The...

    Need help finding a generic cover for 2320

    Installed my Budge 22-24 foot 1200 denier cover today. It fits nice and is easy to install, does not cover bracket or engine, put separate cover on engine. It was only $360 on Amazon.

    Tilt & Trim Issue

    From what my dealer told me yesterday, it's a known issue and only on the big motors the 250 & 300. I don't know if it's isolated to the 2021 model year, if not, I'm sure more people would have had this issue and some would have replied to the post. From how it was explained to me, the friction...

    Tilt & Trim Issue

    I'm going to get the boat brought home and blocked up for the winter and when the parts come in I'll go get them to make sure they don't go to another boat, then I'll have them do install before I drop in in April or May.

    Tilt & Trim Issue

    I heard back from dealer today, they told me they need to retrofit engine with "friction washers" on mount bracket where the tilt & trim pistons contact motor. The parts are the Yamaha fix for the issue and are on backorder and will not be available this year. They told me it is a simple fix...

    This time of year again...

    I like the yellow and black warning tape on the roof. I'm 6'3" and I've whacked my head several times getting used to the new boat.

    Tilt & Trim Issue

    Put lube on pistons no help. Put stops down on engine and tried going up an down, no good. Turned manual release and port side went down, not starboard. Pushed down on engine while trying to go down, no good. In all attempts starboard side goes in about a half an inch then stops. I'm assuming...

They also recommended the weather...

    2021 2302 Ride Quality

    I've had my 2320 for almost 3 months and love it. My previous boat was a 21 W/A and there's no comparison. I can run a lot faster in rougher conditions and not get slammed like in the prior boat. Like Swatski said it takes some getting used to the sound of the water slapping on the hull but now...

    Rod holders for my 2320 SC

    Has anyone put in flush mounts in the transom in front of the fish box ? I would think they would have to be zero degree due to limited space ?
