    I have some woodworking experience but I don't think it is imperative. I had to make the box accessible from the side when the drawer is open, so you can easily get things into and out of it. I got some heavy-duty slides on Amazon and had to make sure of the measurements so that the slides...

    Hi Chris, Yes, I built the box and I put it on slides. I made it black so you can't really see it at all when it is recessed. There is a lot of unused room behind that tv, but I figured the best way to easily get to it was with a slide-out drawer/box. I put a little clip of the front so it...

    Here is what I did for the area behind the salon tv above the refrigerator on my 380.

    Amajamar, Thanks so much for the write up about the windshield washer upgrade that you did. It is very in-depth and thoughtful and I will likely be adding it sometime over this summer. Thanks again and it really is greatly appreciated. Paul

    Amajamar, Thanks so much for the great write up about the batteries and your setup. I hadn't thought that one side was for the helm and one side for the house. That makes things seem a lot clearer now that I know just what is pulling down my starboard side so much overnight. I can't thank...

    Hi amajamar, I am very interested to know exactly what you did with your batteries to help with the overnights. We spend many nights on the hook and you seem to have a concrete plan for dealing with this. As I understand it, I have two batteries together for my port engine and half of the...

    Just a mention here about the cockpit fridge, guys. I also switched the cockpit ice-maker to a refrigerator. I had to cut the fiberglass but it isn't a big deal. I went with the Cruise 65, so I also had to build up the bottom a little bit so I didn't have an open space at the TOP of the...

    Nice work there, Chris. Amajamar, I see you have a Garmin network expander under the dash there. Is this because the radar uses one of the network inputs in the back of the unit so you cannot network your two MFDs without the port expander? I am adding a 942 to the center of the dash, like...

    Hey Chris, I was mistaken about being able to find out on the Fox website from the engine serial number which MEFI version ECM you have. However, I unbolted mine from the engine and used the number on the back of the ECM to find the corresponding information on the website which tells you which...

    The Fox Engine Gateways are specific to which computer (ECM) you have on the engine, as there were different versions. You can find out by calling Mercruiser or looking up the serial number of the engine on the Fox website. I have a 2001 with 7.4 Horizons. The data that is transmitted via...

    HI Guys, I have a 2001 with 7.4's. This summer I added the FOX Marine gateways and I can view my engine data on my Garmin via NMEA 2000. Also, they transmit in bluetooth so you can view even more information on a bluetooth device. There is nothing else that you need to see the bluetooth...

    Replying to a post from Doc O Rock from several weeks ago. I replaced my cockpit ice maker with a refrigerator earlier this summer. I had to do a little cutting and run a 12v feed but really wasn't a big deal. Nice to have a beer fridge nearby........

    Rondds, That looks like the cockpit carpet in the picture. Is that right? I'm asking about the carpet runners for inside the cabin. Thanks, Paul

    Hi All, Just purchased a new-to-me 2001 380 DA. The previous owner discarded the carpet runners. Does anyone have a supplier for carpet runners for 2001 380 Sundancer? You know, the Sunbrella snap-in runners for down below... I got a price from the local canvas/upholstery company and I...
