Anyone by chance know a part number?

Thanks John See you around the marina soon. Jason

Does anyone know if there is a sending unit to send the outdrive angle to the rudder angle indicator on the SmartCraft system? I hate to admit I lose (forget) my steering angle OFTEN when trying to dock. Thanks, Jason

fully agreed

By naming the marina by name I am getting good feedback from people who HAVE used their services and advice regarding a specific technical issue from a fellow boater who is in the same marina. I will take that backlash (Thanks Frank!) I will edit it out as I am NOT trying to be obnoxious...

I am sure suckered was an inflammatory term and should not have said that. I just felt and still feel the labor charge did not reflect the task at hand. None the less they took care of it. "R" has promised me they will get to the bottom of the ATC problem as well. So when that gets taken...

Bridog. I did not realize the volume of posts related to the allowed content. I was asking if this seemed like a 3 hour job. Sorry if you take it as "calling out".

CW and FW .. generally I have had good results with the big stuff: (out drive leaking gearlube) and hard grounding with bottom work and out drive work. We seem to run into issues with responsiveness and resolution of the little stuff: several AC issues, CO detector repeatedly going off, the...

fwebster: The true irony to your statement is that the Friday BEFORE they "fixed it" on Monday I teed in a 5/8 tube and garden hose adapter between the sea water pump and the heat exchanger. The pump could not pump up the 1 foot length of hose I added. The garden hose produced flow...

I talked to the service manager and he reduced the labor charges to 1 hour for one man and 1/2 hour for the helper. I am satisfied with that as it seems realistic for the job.

310 Sundancer. AC not working so dealer (removed name) took a look at it. "There was a clog at the outlet of the heat exchanger that we flushed out." :smt038 On this system there are 4 hoses and hose clamps on each. Sounds like no parts used and charging for 3 hours of labor, so over $300...

I am glad I found this tread. Maybe it will solve my bilge pump problem that has been addressed 5 or more times since Junuary. I printed it out and gave it to the mechanic.

We are looking at buying an '08 this weekend. When going on a trip, is there some sort of bike carrier that is produced that hangs off the stern or do I just need to strap then down somewhere? If there is anything I would love to get it ordered.
