Disappointed would be an understatement! I would be seriously pissed off if I had to repower my Express with those kind of hours. I would think they would go for a few thousand hours with the right maintenance.

Sounds like a good plan! My Express has a bit over 600 hours on the 7.4L MPFI engines. New long blocks would be what I would do.

Just found out the South Delta opened up at 10:00 AM this morning. Neal

I think Curtiss was asking me about my Express because I posted in this thread. If he wants to take his question to me over to the thread below: http://clubsearay.com/showthread.php/72750-Official-330-Express-Cruiser-340-Amberjack-1997-2003-Thread I'll be happy to discuss my boat. Otherwise...

I am familiar with the panel under the helm and the push-button breakers there. After spending some more time poking around under that area I found three 8-gauge wires cut and taped off. They have the small wire labels on them that indicate they come from the Main DC breaker panel under the...

I have an electrical question I hope someone can answer. On my '97 330 Express Cruiser under the cabin steps I have a DC Main Beaker Panel. There are three 50 amp breakers labeled "control station", "cabin main" and "electronics". I know where the wires go for the control station and cabin...

Agreed! But, it looked to me like the Broker was more interested in promoting his business than your boat.

I managed to trace the end of the transducer cable today and found a 7-pin connector. So, I'm making progress.

I have not yet found a tag on the Airmar B44 transducer cable so I don't know if it was originally installed on a B&G or a Raymarine data instrument. Could have been either one. If I knew what was installed originally I would know if I could reuse that transducer.

Is there a way to contact Sea Ray and find out exactly what electronics were installed when my 1997 330 Express was built? I have a Airmar B44 transducer on the port side that looks original. I am wondering what fishfinder or instrument it was originally connected to. Neal

Perfect! Thanks Windjammer

Agreed. Sounds like one to move some serious weight, not open & close the vent window. I have learned a long time ago that it often doesn't pay to try to go cheap on certain things. Neal

Frank, Thank you for the details. I will remove the actuator this week and take some measurements. The motor is dead, so I cannot power cycle it, but I'm sure I can determine the length of the stroke by measuring the actuator and how far the window opens. Neal

Thanks Frank and the other gentlemen! Do you remember the specs on the PA-14 you bought. Looks like there are options for Stroke, Force, and Speed.
