Interested in what you found out about the isinglass

Hi, sorry for the delayed response. I spoke with David last fall. He was very helpful. About $1400 for the front isinglass. Didn’t pull the trigger although I wish I had. Plan on ordering it to be made this week. He said it takes about 6 weeks in total.
 
Hello, the accent lights around window blinds in the bow were working when we did the water test and now they aren’t. Any thoughts what I may have done or not done? Thanks Randy
 
Can a few people please tell me what fuel burn on the Venture, in gal per hour, they are getting with 300 verados at 30 mph. around 5000 rpm.
 
Hi,
Having an issue with my generator and wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions:


Boat - 2103 370 SeaRay Venture
Generator - Kohler 5EKD
Serial - SGM325F7K

Bought the boat last July and the generator worked perfectly until about October. That is when this issue of it shutting down immediately after starting began.

Generator cranks, starts and then shuts down immediately leaving me with a check engine fault.

So far I have changed the fuel solenoid valve, both fuel pumps in the generator and replaced the CO detector in the cabin.

Before doing all of the things above I was getting an AUX error code. Now I am getting a Check engine fault code.

any help or suggestions would be appreciated

Was that for all 6 front panels?
 
Looking for help -
Hopped on the boat to take a family member for an inaugural ride and no power to engines.
Went below turned both ignition keys and no sound(beep) as I am accustomed to. Came up to the helm and all accessories work (windlass, lights, all Battery accessories like stereo etc all work). Trim from the helm, start engines don't work. Trim from the engine well does work.

As I mentioned in an earlier post I am having issues with the generator. The only thing I've done between last week (engines ran fine) and today is I took the cover off of the generator and unplugged the adapter in the back of the generator to see if it would run without the CO and Fire suppression auto shut downs. I have since reconnected that adapter.

my initial thought was a kill switch that I inadvertently hit but I cannot find one anywhere.

any thoughts?

check master fuse panel under captain's seat?
check battery voltage?

Thanks. The battery charger has been on for days and it reads 12.3v with no output. All green lights but the voltage seems low to me as I think it should charge the AGMs over 13v. I know the DTS is finicky with regard to voltage so I am thinking this might be the issue. Just can't figure out why the charger isn't kicking out amps to the batteries if they are only at 12.3

Yes there is something wrong on the charger. Should be close to 13v. Look in your charger operator manual and be sure it is actually ON and set up for the batteries you have. I assume they are AGM. They require a different charging profile than flooded batteries.

Also be sure your shore power breakers are ON too

Switched out the battery charger with a new ProNautica 1240p. Easier than I thought. Still get no response when turning ignition keys to the smartcraft or helm gauges. I've got power to the engines, the breaker panel and helm fuse board. I'm thinking maybe the DTS clean power harness fuse blew but I cannot find it anywhere. Have any of you noticed this power harness in your Venture? Location?
