As part of my prep for the boating season, I swapped out my running lights and anchor light with LED bulbs. The new running lights work fine. Unfortunately the anchor light is inop. No matter how much I try to ensure both ends of the bulb make good contact with the fixture, it doesn't light up...
I recent damaged one of my decorative (diagonal) glass windows on my 2021 R-27LE boat. I need to replace it. Does the factory offer replacement glass or do I need to have a local glass company make one?
Thanks!
What color code is the Sunbrella bimini canvas on a 2023 R27 OB? We are going to make some side and aft sunshade curtains for the cockpit and would like to match the existing canvas. TIA.
I’m taking delivery of a new 2025 R-27. I’m trying to purchase the 20hr service kit for the Yamaha 350 in advance. None of the parts websites list the new motor. Does it use the same parts as the F300 for this service?
Hi. I want to convert my head in my R27 OB to a fresh water flush and was looking for options. Would it be an easy option to close the raw water valve and disconnect the hose where it connects to the strainer and re-route that hose to a T connector that I would add to the fresh water line that...
The two inboard screws securing the sun visor have failed. One stripped out, the other sheared off about 3/8” from screw head. I suspect this is cyclic fatigue induced from wind buffeting while towing at highway speeds but that’s just a guess. Anyone else run into this? Repair...
Fellow Tugnuts,
I’m taking delivery of a new 2025 R-27 in a little over a month. What are some things that I need to be gathering/purchasing for that first day trip or overnight?
Also, is the boat missing anything that I need when I take it from Des Moines to Foss Harbor Marina? Don’t want to...
We have a 2025 R27LE and would like to add another CMP 175 watt solar panel(Total 350watts). What is required to properly make this upgrade? Does the factory wiring and solar controller support the additional 175 watts as a plug and play option?
Thanks!
On a 2024 R27 OB LE. During a Courtesy Coast Guard inspection, noticed that the bilge pump would not check on the 2.5 min cycle when all power was off. It did OK when on House Battery. What should I be checking? Is there a fuse associated with?
Looking for a triple axel, 12,000 lb trailer for my 2021 R27 Outboard. Have contacted several manufacturers in the Seattle & WA area but it seems that they are all priced the same, within a couple hundred dollars anyway. In Florida I've found several similar trailers for much less than on the...
While I was recently prepping my R-27 LE for winter storage, I stepped off the passenger (port side) seat and onto the (unsecured) storage door below.
I'm now looking for any source for the door/frame replacement. Can you help me find replacement or the vendor you use for the teak cabinets...
Hello! I purchased a 2022 R27 Outboard Hull Number FMLT274L122.
My question is that I may have an issue hydraulic leak with the steering ram on my Yamaha outboard. I have someone looking at the leak right now and determining if it's in the fittings. If there is an issue with the ram - is this...

TIA

I'm getting ready to put my new (to me) 2021 R-27 LE in covered dry storage for the winter southern Virginia. No solar or shore power available. Which electrical switches, if any, should be left on? Should I remove all the factory-installed batteries or can I just disconnect them?
I have 1 door and a drawer front in the galley that have deep scratches/gouge that are too deep to sand. How can I order a replacements?
(2024 27 LE) Thank you.
What is the brand model and electrical power requirement specs (initial start up and continuous operation) for the air conditioner on the r-27 LE edition? Does this model include a soft-start capability?
