So, I posted a thread a few months ago stating I was considering getting out of boating for a while. Basically, over the last 3 years I think we used the boat about 10 times as a family, sleeping on it once. Over that time my mother passed after being ill all summer & my mother in law passed...

Hi Guys, I have a buyer getting my boat surveyed Wednesday in a rather poor forecast. I'm guessing his moisture readings on the deck will be moot but, was wondering what else to expect. I was under the impression that compression tests were to be done cold but, here is the response the buyer got...

I have finally started to face the fact that my best boating days may be behind me. Its not an age related thing as I'm only 58 but, rather a lifestyle thing. To date, I have used my boat once this season, for a raft up in a local river. Last year I slept on the boat one night and did 4 day...

Hey guys, I have a '97 330 DA with twin 454's carbed. My sync gauge took a crap a few years back & it wasn't a big deal but I did have my mechanic replace the gauge. That didn't fix it & after further research I found there was a module behind the dash. My mechanic never ordered it nor did I &...

Hi guys, I have this table base that my brother gave me kicking around in storage. I have no use for it. Free to the first guy that wants to pay shipping. The unit is pretty light. If no takers it heads to the trash.

Hi folks, My factory in dash depth finder has taken a crap. The display had begun flashing the past few years while under speed & now the display looks like the hieroglyphics from the Predators arm bomb. What have others done to replace it? My garmin was acting up too so these two are my top...

Hi guys, My sync guage has been inop for a few years. I had the marina change the guage last year to no avail. I have 7.4 gas motors with carburetors. Do you think this module will do the trick? How can I troubleshoot it? I think it is under the dash panel. TIA for any help you can provide...

Hi All, My buddy got a deal on a 24' cabin cruiser but it has no air conditioning. A quick search seemed to reveal that the hatch units are discontinued? What are people using in its place? TIA. Todd

Hi Guys, For those of you that have done this before on this model, how hard was it to access the nuts on the underside of the stanchions? I find myself in need of doing this project as several of mine are now loose. I would've posted in the 330 thread but I find a new thread seems to generate...
