Running a 2007 safe boat refurbished former MSST Seattle boat with 2008 Honda 225’s P 1200 hours S 1500. Absolute weapon of a boat that exceeds expectations for capabilities.
Few things I wanted to bounce off the forum to see ideas and see what works well for others.
Nonskid ideas/purchases
Reoutfit engines
Heater issues
Seating ideas
Forward lighting
Vinyl stickers for the collar (if they stick)
Just general ideas I suppose. Let me know what you have and or what works well for you. Love to see ideas from people who share the pleasure of operating the RBS Defender.
Welcome
On engines I’m going to move to 250s once mine are ready, they are both N2k and 1600 hours so will be a few years, likely will change to electric steering and controls when I do.
On nonskid I’m also curious, my understanding is that it’s the removal that’s really expensive.
Heater I replaced with a new evo, was an easy swap.
Yeah man, the 250’s will be a great upgrade. I used to remove nonskid back in the day when I was a younger lad. A lot of man hours, scrubbing, scraping, chemicals, sanding, cleaning, repeat 2x. I will update as I go with this.
