    Mid-90's 270 Sundancer Thread

    Hello, I bought a bravo 3 lower unit(got a good deal on it) to change out my Bravo 2. Heard good things about Bravo 3s handling and planing. Since I only boat in fresh water and trailered 99% of the down time, figured why not. My outdrive ratio seems to be 2.00:1 according to SeaRay prop matrix...

    1997 Sundancer 270 7.4 Gauges won't illuminate

    Hello, For some reason the gauges on my Sundancer don't come on with the nav lights. I fiddled with the dimmer switch - nothing. Can't see any breakers tripped and I checked them all. Nav/anchor lights and switch work just fine. Any ideas on where else to look and what else to check? Gauges...

    1997 Sundancer 270 7.4 not charging batteries

    Ok working backwards, tested the alarm by grounding the gear lube monitor wires. Works. On to the oil pressure switch wire I went. Grounding it to the block worked and now I had continuous alarm, like I should, on key on. Which leads me to believe oil pressure switch is bad? But it still reads...

    Hello, Have a 1997 Sundancer 270 with 7.4 Merc. As of few days ago, alternator not charging batteries and my alarm stopped sounding during startup. Used to be you turn a key alarm is on until you fire it up. Now nothing. I check the alt with DVM, seems to be putting out 12.5 at idle, at the...

    Searay Interrupter Switch wiring

    Hello, Could someone please tell me how the interrupter switch should be wired? Some shoddy mechanic decided to take it off the boat... I got a new plate with the switch, but I don't see any wires that need to be connected to it. I know one side is group the other one either to coil or...

    Replacing spun aluminum prop with SS

    Looks elongated. It isn't so much installing it, it's that I REALLY don't want to drill more holes in the transom... So unless I can somehow match up the longer tab hinge with existing holes, I would be a bit hesitant.... I figured on the hydrofoil. I think they work pretty well on the smaller...

    1997 Searay Sundancer 270 Transom Leak

    Well I need to do the bellows, I figured since I have to paint it all I might as well do the swivel... Oh well. Was hopping to get the leak fixed before going to the salt water, but looks like that is not going to happen until i come back. Thanks guys! Tons of good info!

    1997 Searay Sundancer 270 Transom Leak

    So, swivel shaft seal seems to be general consensus then?

    Replacing spun aluminum prop with SS

    That is a 3rd time I am hearing about increasing the span of the tabs, I guess I should stop hearing and start listening. Are they aluminum or SS? I can probably have a metal shop weld another plate under the original tab, that way I wouldn't have to remount the cylinders or worry about...

    1997 Searay Sundancer 270 Transom Leak

    Won't let me go to this page, tells me I do not have permission. Also swivel shaft seal sounds rather expensive

    1997 Searay Sundancer 270 Transom Leak

    Yeah, any ideas on what could be leaking? Engine isn't running in this video, just being in the water makes it leak.

    1997 Searay Sundancer 270 Transom Leak

    Hi all, Notice I have been getting a lot of water in my bilge. Enough to trip the pump... Decided to investigate, found the leak and made a video, but can't tell for the life of me what is leaking. Could use another pair of eyes on it. It's above the u-joint bellows... Engine isn't running. I...
