    Carpet for my 270 Amberjack?

    Anyone know of a good place to order carpet for my boat? It has never had carpet in it and the wife would like to put it in mainly for the kids. I would just assume order the searay stuff but don't know of a good site or anything. Thanks for any help.

    My winterization...

    Alright, I used the 5gal jug method to get the pink through the motor. I first pulled the blue drain plugs and used the supplied pump to get out as much water as I could. Reinstalled the plugs and then hooked up 5gal jug. The motor sucked the 5gals of pink QUICK. I was a little shocked. I then...

    My winterization...

    I went back and forth about using -50 or -100 and I know -100 adds more piece of mind but we really don't get the weather for that and the boat will be stored inside. It isn't temp controlled but still inside. I didn't align the drive but since the drive will be stowed up I plan to check the...

    Hot water heater drain?

    Sorry for the dumb question, but where exactly is the drain for the hot water heater? I keep reading it's on the bottom so I am assuming that means underneath which seems like it will be hard to get to. And, is it bad to put the pink stuff in the heater. It seems from all the reading I've been...

    To Store Bravo III drive or not?

    I am stowing my boat in an enclosed non-heated warehouse at the marina and don't know if I should pull my drive and keep it in the garage or leave it on the boat. My concern is that I know I shouldn't let the drive stay up all winter but the marina where I'm leaving the boat says they "could...

    Bellows?

    Hello. I have a 2007 270 Amberjack with an 8.1 and Bravo III. I'm the second owner and was told by the dealer that the drive was replaced in 2008. Anyway, I was out checking my bellows and I located what I believe to be the u-joint bellow and shift cable bellow but the exhaust bellow didn't look...

    $1400 to winterize?

    Thanks everyone for your input. I'm sure I can handle the ac, generator, water system, bait station, and toilet. That being said just getting all my ducks in a row and I think I'm going to tackle the motor and drive too. I have someone locally that might be able to assist as well.
