I believe I am the third owner, and the previous two seemed to care about keeping a boat up so it falls to me now and I will keep up on it.
This week replacing an Exhaust manifold that is leaking, but over in good considiton.

Note: To Paul (Cruise Control) Have you been reading the thread "Differences in F25 and F 26? Any thoughts about my boat...25 or 26

Still looks like a 26 to me. My 26 is 26' 4" long and 10' 2" wide. Does yours measure out the same?

The beam is right at 10'2" but I need to put the tape on her next time I am at the slip....When i bought her, I did measure the beam but just marched off the lenght, so that was not accurate... I Will let you know what I measure. The seller I bought from advertised it on Craigs list as an F26 26 FT

I believe it is a 25. The back deck looks a little shorter than mine, the transom has some sculpting to it, and it has a prop pocket or tunnel.

Fridge and Count Top Questions.....

Post by dollarbill »

I have an Express 30 and although my Norcold Fridge is still working fine... I am thinking down the road when it decided to leave me... How did you get the old fridge out??? I have just eyeballed it and think the passageway is too narrow... And it looks like your set up is shore power only or did you set up a converter.

Counter tops... I am assuming you had the melamaine counter tops... did you remove those or is that something on top... mine are the light colored fake wood and look dated... would like to replace but..... weighing it out dollar wise...


Thanks

I removed the fridge in my F-26. It will just squeeze thru the cabin door after you remove the fridge door.
