bkh Posted June 1, 2019 Report Share Posted June 1, 2019 Hi guys, I have a 2016 2200 TRS and always look at the new models to see what is new and improved to see if I can add to mine. I noticed that both the port and starboard sides have what look like fuel fills? Is that right? That seems a little odd but a nice touch. Also I have heard I think here, that all the lateches in the back and the anchor are friction now. I contacted Jerry at Gemlux a while back inquiring about adding them to mine before pathfinder made them standard and he said as many here have done here it would be a drill and fill and drill, which I really didn’t want to do, Now I am wondering if they may be a direct fit? Can anyone confirm? I also saw the nice side rails, which I actually had pathfinder do on mine before they were an option and I used birdsall seat backrests - the new pathfinder ones are nicer since they recess into the body instead of stick out like mine. Many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneyB Posted June 2, 2019 Report Share Posted June 2, 2019 I put the friction hinges on my 2012 and love them. there is not an exact replacement but it is close and i just filled my holes with 5200. the lids has lock nuts on the hinges so its not like the screws are going to slip when you drill new holes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks. one is fuel fill the other I believe is for fresh water fill. if you look in the gallery it appears that the boat has boat raw and freshwater washdowns.

bkh Posted June 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2019 Thanks for the replies. I will bite the bullet on the friction hinges and drill and fill. Brune90, that makes complete sense on the fresh water fill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillAV8R1 Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 I’m in the same boat (literally and figuratively) and looking to make mods as well. Just added bow rails and next I’m going to add the back rests ... which is turning out to be a little more challenging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
