Thanks Jason....so just fill the water tank and the toilet should work...sounds easy enough. Bruce

I want this head to work underway so I would fill the potable water tank? I didn't know if it had a intake valve from the hull some wheres...

I believe I have a vacuflush system on this vessel. It has a large white canister mounted on the bulkhead next to the holding tank and a fancy small Wildon pump below it. I just installed my new macerator pump and not sure what provides water to the toilet...I turn on the head switch on the dash...

Thanks Scorpio...I am going to give it a try now.

Hello, I removed all the old track material and cleaned everything real good. I have the new tracking material in hand which I purchased from Taylor last year. Is there a trick to getting the new track into place or does it simply involve putting the window in place and sliding the new track...

Hello Gents, I finally got my engines back in the boat and she is running good after a 15 month delay. When I filled both tanks with 50 gallons to get it out of the marina within 4 days I notice my port fuel gauge slowly going from half full to empty...yet after sounding the tank with a rod I...

ED, Not sure if you got my last reply so I want to ask again...Can you tell me what charger to buy as a replacement for my set up? I understand there are no 24V systems on the boat. Can I get by with a 3 bank 15 amp charger or should I go alot higher? Doesn't the alternator and dock power...

Re: 1989 Vintage 34 ft Sundancer has battery charger issues. Anyone able to troublesh I can see the writing on the wall having to get a new charger...Which Xantrex would you suggest for a 3 battery set up? I'm still now sure on the output but believe everything is 12 V. Thanks

Re: 1989 Vintage 34 ft Sundancer has battery charger issues. Anyone able to troublesh Jason, Your boat and mine must be pretty much the same originally except the genny. Do you have any 24V systems on the vessel? I think I screwed up and said series when the two on the stbd side were actually...

ED, Your are correct everything is red to red and black to black. 12V. What threw me was when I checked the old charger output and it read 28V. Can you tell me how the 3 batteries are set up for and what purpose on the boat? I assume the 2 on the stbd are for the engines and the house? Is the...

Hello Gents, I'm still trying to chase down my issue with my old professional mariner charger. Only one of the 3 output legs was putting out 28V. The two stbd batteries are attached in parallel which is 12V. I assume this goes to a box on the fwd bulkhead which splits this to 12 V for each...

Re: 1989 Vintage 34 ft Sundancer has battery charger issues. Anyone able to troublesh Mike makes sense to me. I have the two stbd batteries charging is parallel but only the stbd engine would roll over. Hope the port engine is not locked up. Once they all get a full charge I will try turning...

Re: 1989 Vintage 34 ft Sundancer has battery charger issues. Anyone able to troublesh Hi Jason, I have the boat at a Mercruiser dealer now since they are rebuilding the carbs and going through the raw water impellers and draining the 11 yr old gas. I will just add this charger issue to the...

Re: 1989 Vintage 34 ft Sundancer has battery charger issues. Anyone able to troublesh The converted in the main panel is just used to bring up the batteries correct? I will look harder for the fuses in line from the charger to the battery terminals. Next time im at the boat.......Thanks

Re: 1989 Vintage 34 ft Sundancer has battery charger issues. Anyone able to troublesh Jason, the one battery on the port is for the port engine or generator? Two on the stbd, fwd and aft are stbd engine and house? Which battery does the gen set run off? I will check for the glass fuses near the...
