This is a lopsided deal in your favor.

TTT Problem is there are a couple of varieties out there, so I don't know which one to go with.

Replacing the remote control on my 2000 180br. Which 4000 series remote/throttle do I need to replace the 3000 it came with. The engine is a 3.0 if that matters. Related question: Do I need new cables? Best place to buy online?

Offer $8-9K cash.

going through same issue. For the challenged like myself, can someone walk me through retrofitting the opening? TIA

Thanks for the replies and education. If I can, get a metal film - got it. There are some mother's window tint places here locally- I will call them. Anything else I should watch out for?

Very interested in the outcome.

Called a window tint place yesterday thinking that requesting a quote would be the most difficult part of the process. Turns out, the guy said they really don't do boats bc the film they use is not made for marine environments. Now, I thought that the process involved "dyeing" the window, not...

Thank you for the replies. Much appreciated!

Any suggestions?

drive oil/lube was my guess

What is the best caulk/silicone to use to seal the area where the windshield meets the fiberglass? Any suggestions for removing the old stuff?

Turns out it may have been 2 things - the drain plug to a lesser extent (could gaurantee either way, so went ahend and fixed it) and the other, and more probable cause was some gasket around an exhaust ??????? (I'm lost here). Anyway, about $500 later, we appear to be good.

Am I understanding that exterior grade is the same as treated plywood? Lowes carries this. I can order marine plywood from Lowes or Home Depot, but I have no clue as to species (fir or ??). Right now there is 1/2". Thinking of jumping to 3/4". Might double check to see if enough vinyl left...

I need to replace some wood in the seat cushions in the boat as the wood has rotted on one (figured I'd knock out both). For this application, what type of marine plywood should I be looking into? Also, is there a big box national chain that maight have this?

Well, I didnt change before the winter, so I suspect I should do that now. I will also change the plugs. My neighbor is a mechanic (has his own shop) and said he could do this for me. Thinking of switching over to synthetic oil. Good idea or not? Thanks for the replies.

Unfortunately unable to try it out this weekend, but I picked up my boat from service today. Was told the problem stemmed from the drain plug and the exhaust ??? Said required pulling motor to fix a $5 gasket/part and reseated drain plug (my words, not his). I truly hope this solves it...

A guy who was the service manager at Sail/Ski told me that rotary will blow orbital away. I bring it up bc I was bragging about my porter cable. I may need to pay him $200 to detail my boat.

Thanks, Can I just order that kit, have it installed and be good to go?

I bought a 2000 180BR last year and it served me well through the summer, except for this pesky slow transom leak. Took it to a shadetree boat mechanic and he put some silicone (or similiar) around the lower (Said factory stuff goes bad). This did not work. For this year, I have decided...
