    House battery short life

    Hey , Thanks for getting back . I haven’t checked before leaving the dock , I will do so with the new battery. I assume you asked this question to make sure that the house battery is getting charged from shore power ? The battery is connected to the engine alternator. It is a flooded battery...

    Keep head valve open while cruising

    I agree I don’t like doing it either but the way sea ray build their boats they make everything so inaccessible I can’t imagine how they’ll be able to fit a tank . I’ll speak to the dealer though to clear my conscience. I’m already worried about the day the pump needs work

    Keep head valve open while cruising

    Thanks I’ll speak to the dealer about it . I haven’t seen a single marina around here with pump out facility but you’re right at least with a holding tank I can choose when to empty it . The last thing I want is for someone to flush when we’re swimming around the boat .

    Keep head valve open while cruising

    Thanks a lot lazy daze , this is exactly what I was looking for . Should I install one anyway ? And when do you recommend I close the valve ? Over here we use boat 12months a year so we don’t winterize.
