Calling all 360 DA owners

I finished up my galley TV, Except fit the DVD player with WIFI, I forgot at home. I hinged this door, so I could store the coffee pot. Now I need to figure out something for cable management, to be easier for stowing the coffee pot. I found a little sound bar, that was an open box item at Bestbuy. It sounds much better than the TV speakers. I'm very happy with the way it turned out. I hope the concealed hinges I used are strong.



 
Looking good Jeff! I haven't yet determined what to do about coffee (Mandatory), I like your solution. And the sound bar, great idea!
 
So I've run my 'dancer a few times and so far so good, although it still feels rather large to me. I've got two questions I'd like to pose to the members:

1. Water temperature (as in sea water inlet temp) is showing 141-149 degrees and it's more like 49 -55 degrees. Any ideas where that sensor is?

2. Port fuel tank has dropped down to near 1/2 tank and the starboard is about 3/4 (dash gage and smartcraft indicating about the same). Engine WOT are within 100 RPM of each other. Should I suspect sensors before I consider excessive fuel consumption on port engine?
 
Dave....my water temp gauge is very inaccurate like yours. I think the temp sensor and depth sensor are the same....thru hull in the bilge. My depth gauge seems to be accurate, so I have not changed it.

Looks great Jeff, I never thought of a sound bar. I have all the TV's wired into the main system but at times I'd like to just have that TV on to listen. What size did you wind up going with?

This one is a 22" Samsung that I was using as the cockpit TV. I put a 19" Samsung in the stateroom. I'm putting a new 24" in the cockpit. A 24" was just too big, at least to mount flush with the cabinets, in this location. I will just have to modify my canvas cover for the cockpit TV, to fit the new TV.
 
Not sure if this will work, but I took some pictures of my TV panel in the forward stateroom, put it on a PowerPoint slide, and made a jpg out of it. I'm really having trouble attaching pictures on this site. Sorry if this does not work. I'll try something else next time...
 
OK... I cannot figure it our for the life of me, how to attach pictures here. Any hints would be appreciated.
Anyway, nice TV in the galley. Where did you find a 22"? I found a 19", which works, but is a little small. I would need to come up with something for underneath the TV to fill in the space. The DVD fits nicely, but there is still a lot of room.

The 22", I bought about 4 years ago and has been my cockpit TV. I'm putting a 24"in the cockpit now. There don't seem to be many 22" models available right now.
 
Tv looks great finally got my mechanism to work and got it open... with the 22 Samsung flushed to cabinets are u able to open the cabinet to the left without javing to swing the tv to the right? AND CAN ANYONE HELP ME WITH THE VENT MOTOR STILL LOOKING FOR IT? I wouldn't care but my wife's a cook and when she cooks on boat without something venting the entire boat smells like food....

Yes...the cabinet opens with the 22"Samsung. Here is a better pic....

 
Has anyone replaced the fridge and freezer in the 360 yet? I've been going nuts trying to nail down replacements. I have the topside fridge set that's going to be a Norcold NR-751 direct replacement. The two below in the galley are kicking my ass. Seems VITRIFRIGO is the only mfg that I have heard can possibly work in the old ones places. I can't find a customer service number for them other than a "useless webform". I'm gonna keep digging but figured I'd ask around here too just in case.

The make of them are Coolmatic and I have heard that they have been replaced by Dometic, but the ace retro fitter at Dometic says that there is no direct replacement for the SeaRay's he's been begging the higher ups to make them as they would really sell like hotcakes. But he says to look to the Vitrifrigo line.

Hi CCC,

Thanks, That is a great layout for the dimensions all the other versions of the site I was looking at had metric measurements. Google stuck me in the EU English version of the site.
I'll hit it and start taking some measurements. I'm sure this retrofit is gonna put a crunch on the wallet.

Thanks again

Odd question here.....
What is the best way to clean the outside of the curved shower door? Other than standing where the toilet is, we cannot seem to reach all the way down to the bottom of the curved door on the second pane (the one that is by the sink when the shower door is in the closed position during a shower). Also the gap between the two is tough to clean as well. Any suggestions?

I've just stood by the toilet...kind of a pain.
 
Note to self: Always always always check battery connections after indoor storage company puts boat in the water. Never never ever take their word for it. I am stupid stupid stupid!!!

My 360 went into Guardian mode out on Lake Michigan. It seems the ECM does not like voltage directly off the alternator (duh). It shuts the engine down to 1000 rpm and then you will very slowly make your way the 2 miles back to the slip...
