Ken: Kelvin did a great job and it is better than new. Our 480 was inspected in the yard in December and there are no problems. Lots of interest but no offer yet. As for the rib competition, I have lot before I start due to the 'come-off-the-bone' exclusion. But - they sure taste good. We...
Just finished this a couple of months ago. The panel does have to be removed. There is a raceway for the previous clarion system, white plastic. Pull from the panel to the dash. It is very easy, 10 minutes if you have an assistant. Be very careful putting the padded panel back on the wall...
There is a 'like-new' 1999 480 DB with upgrades, a fresh water boat in the California Delta. Call Peter Moore at 916-343-1028. Peter is an honest long time Sea Ray yacht salesman.
I know of what I speak, I am selling it.

Ken hit the nail on the head. How will you use the boat? We are stepping down from a 480 DB. I resisted the Sundancer concept but we have decided on the 2006-2007 Sundancer. The 420, now a 44, is plenty of boat for 2 people, and occasional guests, 2 more couples easily. The cockpit is huge...
I found a Marinemax with a parts department that will actually call you back: Marinemax Houston. Switches have been ordered from Sea Ray and will be shipped to me.

I will wait for one week before I declare victory. As Humph indicated, one of our Sea Ray Club members is a 20 year professional in vermin control. He thinks we have eliminated the invaders, one dead resident that I got and a roamer that is probably checking all of the boats in the area. On...
I have not posted for some time. Rats have invaded the boat. Access was obtained through the space used by the power cord. Anyone know of a product to block this access point. Same for the access hole to the area for tv cable and water hose. Or, any thoughts on how I could make one?

Ken, thanks for the information I canceled a previous order for a sealed unit that was expensive and would have required extra work. I ordered two bulbs to ensure an adequate fit. I will experiment with color later. We are finally recovered from the invasion of the 3 and 7 year olds. We...
Has anyone found a replacement for the Ancor Festoon End Cap Bulbs? I assume it is the entire bulb assembly and some resourceful member of this group has probably done the research.
I am replacing two on the bridge.
