Hey, Has anyone replaced their OEM gauges with multifunction gauges? I have a 2000 290 Amberjack. It has 13 gauges on the dash. Later versions only have 5 because they use multifunction gauges (oil, temp, fuel and volts) I know I will need to customize the dash, but I'm wondering if the gauges...

Thanks for replying Ferris, I was able to find the the wiring problem for the gauges, they were swapped halfway down the line. I have them right now, and during my fillup this weekend, I noticed they are reading true. I will look at the windlass this week and let you know what I find...

I have actually used the dinette as a berth a couple of time. When I am down at the boat this weekend, I will set it up and take a couple of pics for the thread.

Thank you all for your quick responses. I have heard about the Jasper engines and I am going to look at them. Also the engines are EFI not carbed. Hope to get things done soon as I am missing the water something crazy. Thanks again all.

Thank you all for such fast responses...I will look into ordering the long blocks..

Ok.. so I have a question for you Lazy Daze, I have a Simrad GO7 XSE with the Total Scan Transducer...Everything works fine, until I am on plane. At that time I lose depth and sometimes speed. I have tried to readjust it several times, but haven't been able to find that sweet spot yet. Any...

Jerzey Jeff, Sorry to hear about the problems you are having with your Windlass..I have heard that the Progress 1 has had a lot of problems in the past. I have had a problem with the "finger spring" used to keep the rode and chain tight. I cant really help you with the electrical part as I...

WOW.. So I just noticed that the boat I bought, is the same boat that the starter of this thread use to have. Papertrail is the name of the boat...LOL..
