Evap canister and tank vent help

Hey All, having a problem and cannot find any help. My 220 is starving for fuel. It runs fine on an external tank to the fuel separator nipple.

The shop looked at the pickup tube, feed lines and anti-syphon (I’m going to replace them all) but nothing jumped out. When checking the vacuum relief ...

Cover advice

Anyone order an aftermarket storage/trailerable cover and was happy enough with it to recommend it? Looking to get one for our 2015 220 that will hold up and not break the bank for now (>$500). I found the Taylor made semi-custom from west marine, as well as carver style of various material types ...

Re: Let's see your Tow rigs with your boat!






Those are sharp!! Did you look at the SRT or just wanted the R/T? If I didn't get a boat I'd be driving a Charger Hellcat right now. Love those things.


I wanted the SRT, but we tow the Durango behind our MotorHome and the SRT is not compatible so I was stuck with the R/T, but it gets the ...

Re: Trailer opinions for 220

Talked to the dealer today, they will replace the bunk mounts and raise the boat when I’m back down there in October. Man, I’m so glad, it was eating me alive!

Re: Trailer opinions for 220

Yes, it’s saltwater down there, but it’ll be more freshwater when I get it home. I’m not all to happy with this dealer, but they were the only ones with a decent selection of used boats.

Haha, no, that LRC sticker came off before I bought it. My OCD couldn’t take it!

Re: Trailer opinions for 220

You can see what a taller bunk bracket on the same trailer will get me, so that’s the plan. Found the pics on the marinas website.

Re: Trailer opinions for 220


Jeff it sure looks like your trim isn't up as high as AJs. Are you sure it's up?

A7 covered this already, but you should have a trailer trim switch somewhere. I have a remote trim on the transom, and it'll raise it higher than the shifter trim will. I'd get that sucker right up underneath your ...

New member from the east coast!

Hello All!

Currently residing in east central Pennsylvania, near Reading and when I’m not home, we are in Destin/Fort Walton Beach FL. Recently picked up a used 2015 220 with the 225hp Volvo V8. Couldn’t beat the price for a little fun on the water. It’s our 2nd boat (previous was a 77 Crestliner ...

Re: Trailer opinions for 220

Thanks all! The outdrive doesn’t go any higher as it’s against the platform when full up. The bunks are at the highest settings already, but I was looking at replacement brackets from West Marine to raise it another 2 inches and have them installed when I’m back at the boat. I cannot put the drive ...

Trailer opinions for 220

Grettings All!

Recently picked up a 2015 220 and the dealer added a needed trailer. I believe the trailer is too low, but they tell me “it’s fine”. I’m looking for others opinions on the setup. To me, the skeg seems way to close to the road, and it’s already rubbed the road/inclines a few times; as ...
