I got the valve cover off in about 10 min. Without removing the exhaust manifold . I used a 1/4 in. drive socket that I ground down to just cover the head of the bolt. Then I used a universal joint on the 3 bolts near the exhaust manifold that were the most difficult to access. The rest were...

UPDATE: I was able to get the valve cover off without issue (10 min). I didn't find oil container seal laying on top of the head. I used my inspection camera and looked in the lifter valley and down the oil passageways. I could see from one side of the head to the other. There is no sign of...

I am looking at a 1997 Sundancer 330, The title says it is 31' 6". So is a 330 really 33 ft.

I would be paying to have the glass work done.

He didn't store it a the Marina. He has only owned the for 45 days. The boat is actually a beautiful one. And your right, he didn't do a survey and got it right in the pooper.

I agree on the sea trial. but this guy will not pay to put in the water since he is loosing his butt.

My surveyor said 20's and if its blessed with good motors, I could at least resell it. The deck work would need to be done also.

That is the number one reason I probably will pass on this boat. The owner will not put it in the water so I can check the engines, A/C and genny. He said since he is loosing his butt, he will not pay to have it put in.

I wouldn't be repairing it. I would take it directly to the local specialist and he would replace the core.

There is not as many as you would think. Most of them would require a large shipping cost. The used boat market is crazy.

My surveyor spent over 3 hrs on this boat. He could not find any structural damage. He said the most likely cause of water intrusion was the hatches. The local boat fiberglass guy said people paint boats for many reasons. He just painted 2 because they were chalked really bad. The previous...

I recently had a 98 330 Dancer surveyed. They survey found that the deck had a lot of soft areas from water intrusion. Also below the windshield is soft. All the electronics checked out and the stringers are solid. This is a well appointed 330. At least I think it is. The seller is offering...

I'm in need of the back cover of my wiper motor. I took it apart last summer to see why it wouldn't work and now I can't find the cover. My boat is a 1990 250 DA.
