Welcome! My thoughts below: AJ's were pretty low volume and quite popular with the fishing crowd. I think you'll find their prices are going to be a bit higher than similar age Sundancers. I suggest you look up 270 Sundancers and AJ's to get an idea (boattrader, yachtworld). For a family...

If you're using their compound you should expect swirls. You need to follow the compound with a polish (Smoove Bubble Gum) to remove the swirls. I use white presta pads for compounding, green for polishing.

That's a pretty cool box but I am dubious of it being Sea Ray. The Sea Ray script doesn't exactly match the Sea Ray mark. I would have bought it anyway, though! :)

You know you're gonna need to share the actual list of items with us if you want anything worthwhile out of this thread, @Blueone :)

Isn't the transom on a 98 going to be all glass?

I don't know if the 400/410 share the same fresh water tank but it's quite common to develop cracks at the top of these tanks due to the design. Many/most of us avoid filling the tanks full when we're going to be running any kind of distance to prevent this, if possible. You may want to...

Dang....

I've been a staunch supporter of Duracells (Deka) from Batteries Plus for the past 10 years or so. Cheap, can count on them for 3-4 seasons (or more). I had one bank that needed to be replaced but decided to do all 4 while I was in there. 2 were from 2019, the other 2 from 2020. My generator...

Replaced 4 of my 5 batteries yesterday (left the generator). Man...I'm sore. I'm getting tool old for this crap. Boats launching everywhere! I guess I need to wrap up this waxing thing eventually.

I just dropped 4 of these in my boat yesterday. Two that I replaced were from 2019, the other two from 2020. Only one bank needed to be replaced but if I'm going through the pain of doing it, might as well do 'em all.

Don't take it personally. Some of these guys have been boating since the days steam was the preferred power source :):)

Sounds like a good start. I don't know if I'd replace the plugs and wires if she's running fine, but it certainly can't hurt. Stock the cooler and get out there!

I have two of the NOCO jump kits, they are awesome. But neither are on my boat. If you have one engine running and the other will not start, you hold the emergency start toggle down while starting the other engine. If all is working, this is the easiest way to jump the other engine. The next...

I don't think prop choice effects how smooth the ride will be. You may want to be more specific with what you're experiencing and/or trying to resolve.

My 99 340 had the water lift mufflers installed. I was under the impression that this was the "official" fix for the reversion issue? But I also thought the reversion issues were only with the horizon motors. Do you have the horizon's?
