My speedomter has been acting wierd lately. At times it registers speed, however other times it jumps to 70 MPH and holds there. When I start the engines, it jumps to 70 MPH??? Any ideas?? AGA 2006 280 Sundancer Twin 5.0 Bravo III

That is a great story. No matter what your friends say, you did the right thing. Enjoy her. TG

I also have this issue on my 2006 280 Sundancer. I have spoken to two mechanics about it. Both indicated that it the "nature of the beast".

$60,000 seems a bit high. I purchased a 2006 280 Sundancer with twin 5.0 Bravo III's, 5.0 generator, camper canvas and most opions for $68,000 lst year. Very low hours. I think it is time to negotiate.

Hull lay out, quality of hardware, fit and finish. I also felt that the company could withstand the economic conditions when I purchased the boat. I moved up from a WellCraft Nova. TG

Called my Sea Ray dealer. ordered them by phone and they shipped them to me. No problem. TG

I checked the hoses and found no leaks. The pump is working. I dried the area as best I could. Water seems to be seeping (very lightly) from the bottom of the box were it meets the hull. How would that be repaired??? TG

Checked the connections and found none leaking. Verified that the bilge inside the sump box is working. I think the box may be leaking a bit. How in the world do you fix that? TG

I just washed mine in Woolite, air dried. they came out OK. No shrinkage when I reinstalled.

I think I can (at least) access the cover and the fittings. I should be able to get a screw driver in there. I will let you know. TG

My wife showered in the boat last season. The water around the sump looks rather old. The carpet in front of the bathroom door has always been dry. I can't say that I noticed any water around the sump last season. i am going to check to be sure the sump pump is working and then dry the area...

By the way, I assume this water exits the boat. I don't have a gray water pump out. Does the discharge go into the holding tank??? TG

Thanks. I will remove the cover and check it out. be back at you, TG

I correct myself. The water is around the sump box (under the step in cabin). This sump box has air conditioner condensation hose, discharge hose and shower drain hose connnected to it. Should there be water around it??? TG

I noticed a bit of water around the bilge under the cabin step in my 280DA. Is this normal? Can't remember if it was there last season (my first season of ownership).
