    Scupper drain plugged on 2025 S250CW

    Have tried a snake on the blockage from both ends. Is there a way to access the hose attachment at the stern without removing the house batteries?

    R27 Thruster

    After using the bow thruster heavily while practicing docking for about an hour, I turned the boat off. When I returned an hour later and turned the boat on and pulled away from the dock the bow thruster made a loud, screeching type of sound and gave no thrust. The boat (R27) is brand new...

    Hi, I originally asked this question in the general forum, and then realized I should have put it here. I'm buying a trailer for our yet to be delivered C-248. The trailer I'm looking at is designed for a v hull and has four bunks. Do I need to worry about the positions of the bunks with...

    Victron Starter Battery (Reading) Question

    I just received my Ranger Tug R25 about three weeks ago. I have what I hope is a simple question. Please review the attached screen shot of my Victron Smart BMV. At the bottom of the screen it says under Input- Starter Battery- 0.03V. Is that normal? I know the battery is fine because it starts...

    Where to mount CG document placard.

    Hello, Couldn't find anything in the search about suggestions for places to mount the placard. The one I purchased is made from starboard and I'm told there is no type of epoxy that will hold by itself so I will also need to drill and run screws into the mounting location. This looks like a...
