Need to replace the gas struts on my new 206 (2004). The print on the old ones is so worn I cannot read it. anyone know the weight/power?
Thanks

Full up to start, then drop, then trim?

Have a new to me 2004 206 with a Merc 250 4 stroke. It has a hydraulic jackplate which is something I’ve never had before, only manual. This is a 10 inch Bobs.
For those who use hydraulic plates,...

Has anyone replaced the carpet with seadeck or aquatraction, etc?
I am seriously considering doing this, but I am curious as to whether it was necessary to install latches to stop the lids from...

It has some glass damage that needs repair. The rest is just me wanting to make a boat as new as possible for my own peace of mind

My 181 is basically impossible to mis-load. Hope this one is as well.
Honestly I’ll really miss driving the 181, but looking forward to a larger fishing platform

I don’t really know why the pictures formatted that way, I am getting used to the interface here!
So, first question: does anybody know what these are? There are four of them, two on each side. They...

Picked up my new to me 2004 206 Elite this weekend. Looking forward to the rehab project, and will
likely have some questions!
Plan a full Rewire, new pumps and hoses, fiberglass repairs and wet...

Well, I did get to lake test it and it actually performed great as is. Lake was really tough so I can’t give true top end numbers but it had plenty good enough hole shot to satisfy me and I got it...

Looking at a new to me boat, an older hull not known for speed, recently repowered with a Mercury Racing 250R. I’m interested in the boat due to the new 4 stroke, but I’m reading that the Sportmaster...

I agree, and I’m not looking for a huge amount of top in speed. From what I understand, though, that racing engine has a different lower unit which can actually be terrible for performance in a...

Yes. Trying to get answers from people who know the boat and maybe also from those who primarily know the motor. Thanks

Trying to arrange. Dealer has been a bit hesitant to offer a lake test up front, wants me to pay first. I’m not willing to do that with my current understanding of potential issues with the motor....

Looking at a new to me boat, older hull not known for speed at all ( Champion 206) that has been repowered with a 250R. I was initially very interested due to the repower with a new 4 stroke, but I...

I have an opportunity to pick up a champion 206 that has been re-powered with a 250 R. I am interested in the boat because of the re-power with a new four stroke, but in reading about the 250 R it...

I have an opportunity to buy a 206 that has been re-powered with a 2020 mercury 250 R. Boat itself needs a little care but seems overall ok. I’m very interested in it because of the repower, but in...

Skeel is accurate. The All Aboard Marine ststem
is very nice. I had it for a while without the all sync portion, and it deploys and stows with the trolling motor but is directed by hand. With the...

Thanks

So, what’s the answer to this a now? In particular, is the new Echmap UHD series going to show any better picture than the Echomap Chirp series if used only with livescope? Im
kind of in the same...

BCB, by ‘subtle’ do you mean the performance issues should be minimal and overcomeable? I’m mainly concerned with getting on plane and with stern sitting to low when fishing. Not to much concerned...

I’m looking at a 1993 P2 that has been repowered with a Suzuki 200 4 stroke. It also has had 2 power poles added. It’s a nice looking rig, but I’m concerned that a boat of that age isn’t really...
