Can't say i ever had a problem with grease. That unit has a nice tray underneath and empty's real easy.
I have a 2021 CL360 with FCT7 center console package. Absolutely perfect fit for that boat and give it 5 star rating.
Weight is 260# (boat only)
25hp motor is 165#
I looked into many of the grill options you state and this one was what I chose. It also rides well when in rough seas and clears the cover when installed. I love it.
Wow, I did that on my 340. What was the noticeable difference with these? I can fabricate those in my shop pretty quickly. I am presuming you are using Stainless?
Thanks, good to know. Seems to be how I run mine as well. Never find myself running less than about 50% as there is not much difference in fuel savings and don't like running with bow that far up.
Now I just reminded myself to do that helm seat riser project.
That is just about exactly what my boat does. Just had the props redone and I believe i had them done to your specs i found in an earlier thread. How do you run? Tabs down 75% ish?
"Front Vent Window and Hardtop Tilt Window weather-stripping"
(pretty sure they are the same)
Anyone have any lucking finding those?
I have searched everywhere and only found alternatives to OEM design.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I thought the same when I was purchasing my 48. Those window and roof vents do their job once she is in gear and for the occasional prevailing winds running the Genset is not a problem. We moved from a 340 to this 480 and I am still pinching myself 2 years later. Best purchase ever made.
