    Head Pump out effectiveness ?

    My 250 Select is the first boat I've owned with a pump out head. Just wondering how thorough the typical marina pump-out process is - I guess the guy at the marina sticks a big vacuum gizmo into the access port and sucks out all the goodies. When this task is performed, does the equipment...

    New head, confused owner

    Just purchased a 2008 250 Select EX with the optional head and holding tank. I am just a bit confused about what to use in the TOP reservoir of the head unit - (for flushing). The instructions are very brief, and say to fill the reservoir with water. I was wondering if water plus the...

    Trailer lighting/grounding

    Maybe it's too early in the morning and I am not awake yet. Just wondering what is the benefit of using the the trailer metal as a ground path for the lights rather than just running the ground wire directly to the lights ? Seems like it would be easier to make decent corrosion resistant...

    Full Boat/Hull Cover for a 2006 220 Select (Pewter)

    I have a custom made cover that was made to match my 220 Select. A local boat canvas shop made it for me about a year ago. The coverage extends down below the colored gelcoat on both sides. In the back, it wraps over and secures under the swim platform. It's an excellent quality cover...
