Same here!

Oh ok, I see it. The owner is out of town, but said his brother can do a virtual tour, so I'll try schedule that ASAP. I just walked away from a Formula based on the engine survey results, so I'm probably a little extra cautious right now...but I agree - in all my searching very very few 380's...

That would be great, thanks

Thanks for the advice. I agree - in all my searching I haven't seen many at all with diesels. That's why I'm also looking at the Formulas.

Upgrading from our 01 290 Sundancer, and considering an 04 380 Sundancer - about 800 hours on Cat 3126 diesels, spent first 12 years in fresh water, had 500 hour service, and some various upgrades. Boat's in Florida, and I'm on Long Island, so planning a virtual tour soon. Obviously, I'd have to...

Oh that’s great to know, if I get that far, thanks! This boat is on the Occoquan River. Is that nearby?

Understood, good point. I had insurance lined up for the Formula 40PC that I just walked away from due to the issues discovered by the engine survey. But they were concerned, since I was coming from a 29’, so I’ll check again since this ones 42

Great, thanks! I’m new to diesels and just started researching this boat. I think it’s always been in freshwater but I’ll ask.

Upgrading from our 01 290 Sundancer, and considering an 03 420 Sundancer - per the broker it’s a freshwater boat, twin Cummins 6CTA diesels, current owner has his and previous owner’s service records, on a full maintenance schedule, including washes, waxing, bottom cleaning, and engine room...

Nice job!

Just kidding, it sounds great!

No pics? Lol

We love the marina, and the location is perfect, but the service dept has been a huge disappointment. They did say it was the internal pressure switch that failed. Anytime I use them for service it’s a headache. Going forward, I’ll try to do everything I can without them.

The marina replaced the pump. I wish I would’ve gotten to it first and saved about $500.00…the one time they beat me to something, LOL

This is the supply side. It looks like one fitting might be part of the hose. The other fitting spins freely inside the pump housing. Looks like maybe it clips in somehow?
