    I wish they put it on my '88. I really, really, really do... :mad:

    Opinions Of This Boat

    They sure did, but they sure shouldn't have. I had an '88 268 Weekender with that package (see my sig). Blew the drive twice. Sold the boat after that. I believe they changed to a Bravo I in '89.

    Down the rabbit hole, smiling all the way....

    I owned a 1990 310 Express Cruiser for more than 10 years. It was the perfect size and had a great balance of cockpit space vs. cabin space. It was very big to be called a 310 and starting in 1992 Sea Ray rebadged it as 330. I'm sure you'll lover her! Welcome aboard

    Engine alarm beep

    Glad you got it sorted. Before you get a new PCM check your PM.

    Engine alarm beep

    Jeff, I was having the same issue since I bought my boat last August. Single beep, rpm drop and almost instant recovery. Almost like you turn the engine off and then back on. This was happening randomly, infrequently, at first but it got worse and started happening regularly. Doing my own...

    280 Sundancer twin V6 or one 496 Magnum

    Well, don't know what might have changed from 2002-2006 but my numbers are accurate. The speed came from a handheld GPS the surveyor was using and my own first-hand numbers are from the SmartCraft gauges. They do vary given changes in load and sea conditions, as I noted, but they don't vary by...

    280 Sundancer twin V6 or one 496 Magnum

    While I agree with you in principle, the 280DA is kind of unique in that it was offered with the option of a single or twins. You can't argue the fact that with twins it is twice the maintenance and double the cost, whatever that cost may be. That may or may not be significant to a prospective...

    280 Sundancer twin V6 or one 496 Magnum

    Hi Steve, So I bought a 2006 280DA with a single 496 just last August. It had 495 hours when I got it and I've only put about 25 hours on it before our season ended. To give some insight into performance, it got up to 45 mph on the sea trial, which impressed the hell out of me. My rather...

    What Is An EIM Worth?

    It's all good brother! As I said earlier, my only issue was that Blink is not the supplier to Sea Ray, Kinequip is, as is shown on the EIMs I actually have installed in my boat. Additionally, the eyebrow version I saw at my Sea Ray dealer were also made by Kinequip. Just found 2 more pics of...

    Already did. Post #35 shows the switchpads. Here are the EIMs:

    What Is An EIM Worth?

    Anything is possible, however, Kinequip makes all 3 types of switchpad/EIM designs; peanut, eyebrow and kidney. I have the kidney style in my boat and I've seen the eyebrow style at the Sea Ray dealer. It was also made by Kinequip.

    What Is An EIM Worth?

    Woah, touchy, touchy... I was ONLY replying to YOUR claim that, "Blink Marine brought the original EIM manufacturer and also they are manufacturers of the new replacement units that Sea Ray are selling." That is NOT true. Unless you have some additional information. Please, enlighten us.

    What Is An EIM Worth?

    The replacement switchpads and EIM from Blink as described by argus1 are NOT the ones being sold by Sea Ray, as far as I know. I know this for a fact because I have the ones sold by Sea Ray installed right now in my 2006 280DA. They are manufactured by Kinequip in North Carolina. I have had...
