Just bought a 2004 292 looking for a few things...
 

Just picked up a 292 and I'm in need of a moring cover. I would prefer it with long sides but not a must. Anyone selling one or recommend a good supplier?

Also, I'm looking to upgrade to add on hydrolic steering. Any recommendations? I had it on my 26zx Donzi and even with a short water test I can tell I'm going to need it on this.

Now I just get to stare at it under shrink wrap until April!!!!

Also looking for a blue steering wheel to replace the white one.

When I had mine I added the IMCO steering, full with their helm. And yes you do need it. I
have pictures if you want to look at them.

I was in your old boat a few weeks ago at Pier57. I saw the install 1st hand.

As I was looking for a 292 I was very suprised to see that they didnt come standard with hydrolic steering.

Anyone have any good contacts at Formula? I have a rear seat seam that is pulling on it. I was looking for a replacement skin if they offer them.

Thanks

Hi Coopsmirage-- Congratulations on the new boat- can't wait to see the pictures.

Regarding a cover. I know this on the other side of the lake/world but I highly recommend

Mark Biddleman
Bidelman Road
Three Rivers, MI
(269) 244-5307

He has a very small shop and does covers for everyone that is within 100 miles of the place. We have personally had new covers made for 2boats (Cobalt and Browning),purchased an awning/shade and had two vents cut into a new boat lift cover. I know a little about McHenry Illinois and the prices that these guys charge up there - are thru the roof! If you call Mark - just tell him George with the Cobalt -- he will know me!

All the best

Congrats on the purchase. If you go full hydro steering use an Imco helm. The helm beauty ring covers the existing helm hole, I had to make a plate to cover the old bolt holes plus I had to fill in the old helm holes with wood plugs to center the new helm up.

Add on kit will not solve the steering issue with the 292.

I will post an email that you can use to contact Formula. when I get home.

I added a link to a picture on the original posting.

Sweet looking bird.

Nice looking bird, was a repo a cpl years back when i was selling my 271 and was on my hit list

Ok. How do you get up to the anchor locker to actually get the forward anchor set?

The mirage and the Donzi both had one large hatch to exit onto the deck. Not a chance in hell I'm going to squeeze out one of the tiny deck hatches.

It would look like the boat is giving birth to a full grown man if I tried!

Thanks
