The Must-Have Center Console Enhancement - Robalo 266 Cayman

My Robalo 266 Cayman is almost done. I have a bunch of updates to share. Fishing SW FL in my new Robalo 266 Cayman and learning what’s working and needs modification is a fun ride.
I'll be running all over SW Florida with this beauty! This will be a Tarpon Hunters dream boat. Is it the BEST? Let me put some hours on it and get back to you!!!!

small world - same boat, same color from. thesame dealer and i definitely recognize the waterways your in! im in SW cape. great video and great inspiration for that folding captains seat storage.

[@CanalLifeSWFL]

Thanks!

[@jazminenichols908]

Helpful content. We purchased a 266 this week because of your reviews, would love to see more videos of any additional mods you make! We are located in Crystal River Florida.

[@CanalLifeSWFL]

Awesome!!!! I love it!!!! Did you get a sky deck? I couldn’t because of a bridge.

[@jazminenichols908]

@@CanalLifeSWFL No skydeck, but I would have loved to! We have the 425XTO motor and our dealer told us that the MPH doesn't display on the Yamaha gauge. Are you able to see that info on yours?

@@jazminenichols908 YES! check this out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHTPqpKIoc9rl6M

@@CanalLifeSWFLwow, clear as day. I wonder why they say it can’t be done LOL… time to make some calls

Informative segment, good job 👏

[@CanalLifeSWFL]

Glad you liked it!

[@Lucas-LeFever]

Just a heads up, be careful with that cupholder/rod holder setup on the gunnel. I find that they are not very secure and I would try to avoid using them while you're running in bumpy conditions. Rigging looks awesome man!

[@CanalLifeSWFL]

Appreciate that! I have two sea sucker mounts that hold six rods (3 each) vertically, plus six on the leaning post/t-top when on the move but I can get lazy from time to time! Good heads up!!

[@Lucas-LeFever]

@@CanalLifeSWFL For whatever reason it happens if the butt of your rod isn't the T shape that locks in. The spinning rods for example, they'll freely spin & eventually just bounce out lol. Ask me how I know, now I have PTSD lol.

Very nice. Love the workstation!

Glad you like it!

[@arnoldtrevilla]

Love your channel . Question I see you have one power pole . I’m getting a power pole pro 2 on mine 10 foot. Single one . Is that enough to hold the 266 without an anchor ? Thanks again for your great videos and ps Robalo needs to get you on their payroll lol you do a good job

[@CanalLifeSWFL]

Thanks. I have two power poles. One would be ok but you will swing in the current a little. Since I fish a lot of bottom rigs, I didn’t want that. Appreciate the kind words.

[@jeremyplayford2654]

Did you ever find a buyer for the tidewater ? Asking for a friend lol 😆

[@CanalLifeSWFL]

At consignment now. Check out Boats World Lake Placid.

[@FromLasVegasU]

Hey Dave, Love the new rod holders. You definitely needed them. Can you get Cuban Public Access TV with that antenna? Love the side scan and I need to get that as well. Wow, impressed with all of the add ons. The make a lot of sense. Does the rack you strapped on to the back of your seat bounce with the waves?

[@CanalLifeSWFL]

The rack is real tight. So far so good! Was an awesome idea my buddy had. The power of a good beer is amazing!😻

[@lennyledet4637]

Why did you get rid of the tidewater ?

[@CanalLifeSWFL]

I wanted a bay boat that had a head. I take a lot of kids out a want to do more.

[@lennyledet4637]

@@CanalLifeSWFL. Nice boat. I am torn between tidewater 2500 and Everglades 243.
