    Removing lower covers to route SeaStar hoses.

    Tried that, super super tight and I could feel pinching on the fish tape line that followed. not sure if there are zip ties that were holding the old lines but it was really hard to pull out the old lines. anyway, I'm pulling the inner covers down now. huge job...

    Removing lower covers to route SeaStar hoses.

    I have a R25 saltwater and have removed the under covers to attempt to replace the old SeaStar hydraulic lines. Anyone reinstall covers with hex screws? I hate drilling out pop rivets. unbelievable amount of time spent drilling and resharpening drill bits and would never want to do it again...

    Power Pole

    We use the power pole a lot. normally drive the front on the sand and drop the pole. You need to pay attention to the tides if you are doing it on the ocean beach and if there is wind we normally would put out a beach anchor too.

    Power Pole

    mine has held up very well. I just had a line rupture (because it wasn't installed correctly) I can see its an easy fix but you must use their hoses as the polyethylene hoses from the big box stores are not as heavy duty. I tried everywhere to find them locally without any luck (even the...

    Power Pole

    we love the power pole on our R25. only time we dont use it is during extremely rough waves. I would be afraid to damage it. 90% of the time when we are near the beach we use it.

    How to restore the luster to faded burlwood (plastic) helm, table, cupholders?

    I agree with Semperfi8387. I own a bodyshop, cleaning it, and spraying clearcoat is easy and we do little projects like this for free. As he mentioned spraying small parts while doing a big project on a car is easy and no cost to the shop other than an extra ounce or two of clear. Also...

    gangway/walkway ideas?

    we did move it a little favoring one side but the arch makes it impossible to go more than 8 to 10 inches, then the height out of the water is compromised (we have tides to deal with ) Yes we could do the front but it isn't convenient as the side location/ side door etc. I like the ideas of...

    gangway/walkway ideas?

    I have a really wide boatlift with my 25R out in the center. The canopy over the lift is protecting it well, but I'm looking for photos of ideas on ways to get to the pontoon. it's about 4 feet from the seawall to the sides of the pontoon. One idea is a moveable gangway, or a walk platform...
