I have the same problem when I trailer my boat with A/C. Just get up on lane for about 3-5 minutes with the A/C stopcock open and it will prime the system and it always runs fine after that procedure. Until you trailer it again.

Thanks for the response. When you open the hatch for the genset where do you see the water tank? Is it towards the bow or stern or is it inboard or out board of the genset.
Thanks for the response I am the owner of the 1986 270, Keokie is my son.
KC Sundancer, I recently purchased 1986 270 that has the water tank where the generator would be installed by searay. I am putting a generator where searay would install it. My question is does anyone know where the water tank would be installed in a 270 equipped with a generator.

I have had knocking motor also, Rebuilt motor and then blew up the outdrive. Before doing a lot of engine work pull the outdrive and run the engine on the hose to see if the knock goes away.
I had 21foot searay with saturated wood and foam. I asked Searay about replacing the foam. They said the foamed in compartments were to prevent the build up of gas fummes in a hollow compartment.

dbeattie, I needed a replacement panel for my 1981 260da. My windshield has the maker etched on the glass panels. My windshield was made by Water Bonnet. I googled them and talked to a tech and he said they did not make the glass piece I needed anymore. Water Bonnet referred me to a glass...

I use a Honda 2000 as you have described sometimes. I prefer to put the generator on shore and run a cord to the boats shore power plug. I use a carbon monoxide detector at all times in my cabin. I have an extended swimplatform so I go down the lake with it tied down so fumes will have a hard...
