    240 Sundeck Thread - Questions and Answers

    We use VesselView Mobile on our '05 240 - if you want the dash gauges & mobile to both work you'll need a splitter: https://www.greatlakesskipper.com/sea-ray-boat-junction-box-kit-1818950-1351459-mercury-878492k14 On our dash the SmartCraft display is in the tachometer, so we needed the harness...

    240 Sundeck Thread - Questions and Answers

    The strips in the holds is a great idea, very functional and looks cool! We just added RGB LEDs in multiple locations, but didn't do the holds ... uh oh, another project ... Lazy Daze is right about the nav lights, the LEDs likely require a specific fixture to meet USCG guidelines. We installed...

    Help me with my JL Subwoofer Choice

    SVT54, sorry to bump a 2-year old thread, but I'm in the process of installing a subwoofer in our 2005 240SD - did you install yours in the location you circled in the photo? If so, how did it turn out? Have you had any problems? I was told a potential downside is having the sub there would...

    Hello Ike, last weekend I noticed the drain at the bottom of the cup holder in the back of my 2005 had some debris stuck in it (courtesy of grandkids): After cleaning it I poured in some water to flush it, and discovered it does not have a drain hose attached. It was dribbling right next to...

    We just bought the 8 pound version of this package, and it fits the locker perfectly: https://www.westmarine.com/buy/west-marine--traditional-anchor-rode-packages--P005_159_001_006?recordNum=1 It comes with 15' of chain and 150' of rope, which is adequate for us.

    240 Sundeck Thread - Questions and Answers

    Thanks, John, I really appreciate the help as we are slowly but surely getting everything stowed where it belongs. Now we also know this is not where the stern table pole is stowed: This is in the underseat hold just forward of the battery compartment, four vinyl loops with twist stud...

    240 Sundeck Thread - Questions and Answers

    Hi Everyone, we've been enjoying our 240 for almost 3 weeks now, and have discovered a couple of "mystery features" I hope someone can help with: In the starboard helm storage, under the rails for the cooler there are 6 blocks of wood (or whatever the material is) screwed into the deck. What...

    240 Sundeck Thread - Questions and Answers

    Thanks, we're really thrilled with the space and the way it's used. We've transferred everything from our old boat, and most of the holds still look nearly empty. I'm sure we'll change that in a hurry :) I need to decide where to mount our fire extinguisher - can anyone offer suggestions? It...

    240 Sundeck Thread - Questions and Answers

    Another first-timer (to Sea Ray, that is) here ... we closed on a 2005 240 SD with 144 hours a week ago today, had our first lake day yesterday. We still have lots of figuring out/fitting out to do, but it's such a huge step up in both size & quality from our previous boat that it's hard to be...
