Dasch, I had 8.1's in my 340 and I always kept running through the AC Delco plugs that were recommended for them. I finally tried a Champion 13 RS14YC6 recommended by my mechanic and they have lasted several seasons with NO PROBLEMS. In fact the new owner just replaced them recently and I wanna...

Hell, I don't own my boat anymore but i'm just as curious too. Might be good on my jet ski...

VesselView Mobile is out now, you can view it on your smart/dumb phone. Mercury part # is 8M0115080.

Did you ever find a mechanic?

Trying to help my good friend and we have come to the realization that we have to get the boat to a "Certified Mercruiser" technician. We are done with parts swappers. Anyone recommend one somewhere between New Orleans and Florida?

Hey Rich, if you don't post pics, it didn't happen...

Same here, I cleaned them up and went back with some 4200.

Steve, you can mail that mic back to Raymarine with $75 and they will replace it for you.

Cliff, come down to the dirty south where it's 105-115 with the heat index AND 100% Humidity. I walk outside in the morning to go to my truck after just getting out of the shower, and I'm already sweating like a whore in confession, sweating like five fat asses in a Volkswagen!!! :smt089

Just be aware that the blue hull boats are beautiful, when they are freshly detailed. And they do require regular washing as well. There's a guy over there that has about a 6 month wait to get you in. Im sure there's a canvas guy on the north shore, but I have a guy on the south shore that I...

I may be wrong on this one, but my Boating buddies have a 2001 380 and a 2000 380AC and they are both equipped with 7.4's from the factory which are the 454's. If this is the case, the 380 you are looking at has been repowered / updated to the newer 8.1's (496's). I have to admit, I'm partial to...

Last I checked, those pods come as one piece and are 3-400 bucks each and they come from the dealer.
