    Feedback ---31DA 2000

    I would say most people have dripless shafts. I’m in Lake Michigan. I’ve never changed manifolds. The members here who are in saltwater say every 3 years. I change transmission fluid every other year, some say yearly but I don’t put a lot of hours on each year. What’s also important is...

    Feedback ---31DA 2000

    I have a 2000 31DA now. I like the cockpit as it can seat quite a few people. The ER is tight, but changing oil and fuel filters is easy. You have to take off the exhaust hoses to change the impellers. Mine had a cockpit icemaker which is great, but it was not an oem option. A prior owner...

    Cost To Operate

    I average about $2,500/yr for routine maintenance and repairs, if they come up. This year was more due to a new camper canvas. That was $4,500.

    Official 370 Sundancer thread

    I had a leak on my 370DA and thought it was the port vent cover too. I rebed it and that was not it. It turned out to be the rubber gasket to the water fill hose on my cockpit ice maker. It got old, hard and cracked. Drove me nuts about a year before figuring that one out.

    Vacuflush 1006 Help

    I know your frustration. I bought my 2000 310DA 4 years ago. I have the VG2 system. The flush took the vac system maybe 1 minute to stop. Then it got longer and longer. I replaced the duck bills, put in a new pump and vac switch. Nothing made it better. My SR dealer replaced the duck bills...

    Fast food rant

    I have been business traveling for 35 years. I’ve got a lot of restaurant stories. Here is a top 2. I get into town after 6 hours of travel and it’s 8 PM. I go to a Panera. This location has the ordering kiosk. I order a turkey sandwich, chips, chicken soup and a soda. I get to the hotel...

    Bananas on a boat?? Any other superstitions you know or believe in?? Your experience?

    We used the champagne bottle in a mesh bag that you can buy. That worked out well.

    Bananas on a boat?? Any other superstitions you know or believe in?? Your experience?

    I’ve written this before, but it’s been some time. I renamed my 2nd boat (330da) and did not perform the renaming ceremony. Every year, I had a big $ repair. I mean $1,000s. One was a cracked port shaft tube for no reason. I didn’t hit anything. The shafts are aligned and hand new cutlass...

    Cruisers 50GLS at Skipper Buds

    Look closer at the stern lines. They x-cross over the outboards. I bet they come out of the water more, but the lines would get hung up in the props.

    Buy a car from a vending machine?

    Caravana got in hot water in Illinois last year. Their operations were suspended for a time, if I remember correctly. They were taking forever to get titles out. People could not register their vehicles. Then were fined when the late title came in and they could finally register them.

    07 310 sundancer cieling sag

    Glad that there’s no moisture. At 15 years old, it’s a possibility. I had the start of a leak in the forward hatch in my 370DA when it was about that age. That’s why I know what fixed my sagging liner.

    07 310 sundancer cieling sag

    Unfortunately, your problem may be that the skylight could be leaking. The ceiling is sagging because the glue is not sticking anymore and it’s wet. Have you noticed if it is more humid in the cabin? Take the ring off the skylight and see if the fabric is wet. You’ll have to remove and rebed...
