    Yamaha F250 fuel consumption chart

    Hi fellas, Does anyone have a copy of the F250 fuel consumption chart as tested by the factory folks on an R25 outboard? I believe it used to be posted on the Ranger tugs website, but I haven’t seen it lately. It showed engine rpm, boat speed, fuel flow at various rpm settings with...

    Sliding window fell out on our 2022 R-27

    Yesterday, while cruising just above idle, we heard a thunk just outside our open starboard window. When we pulled up to the dock we found that the window had fallen out.

    2022 R27 Ranger Tug Air Conditioner

    Would I need a Soft Startup kit to operate my R27 air conditioner with my 2022 Honda EU2200i portable generator ? I am not sure how this would effect the converter and would this air conditioner draw power from the house batteries on power up ? thank you for any thoughts.

    Deck pads debonding

    Good afternoon, the deck pads replaced last fall (under warranty) are peeling up again, as are others. Is there a more reliable aftermarket adhesive (v.s. PSA on mats) that we could use. Aside from looks, they are a safety/trip hazard. Thank you Rick (C-288 Junie Bird)

    2022 Cutwater trailer bunk specs

    Hello, I am working to modify a used trailer for my C24. Can you provide the appropriate or recommended bunk placement for this hull? I want to ensure I do not invalidate my hull warranty and believe this is something you should be able to publish to owners.

    Lewmar winch relay/solenoid location?

    2022 C288. Windlass goes up but not down. No “click” when activated from the helm or the bow toe button. Assuming winch is fine as it operates fine in one direction. Suspect a relay and/or solenoid. Can you please tell me where that is located? TIA!

    Garmin auto pilot erratic at low (trolling) speed

    What hydraulic pump is installed on the c288? The boat has problems holding a heading at slow speeds. I’ve read online that some garmin hydraulic pump models are not rated for slow speeds. I am also thinking of installing an external GPS antenna to see if that helps Ed Old Bold Diver
