I was putting around @ 1500 rpm and throttled up to 4ooo and the boat kinda lumbered around a little. Once on plane I was able to back off to 3500 to keep on plane. I did adjust the tabs to trim out a bit. The prop is 15-1/4 x 15p and I have a spare 14-1/2 x 17p. I have 60 gallons of fresh...

Took the old girl for a test run yesterday. I'm a little confused. Came out of the channel and started to power up the throttle and eventually got up on plane and ran around 24 mph on gps. I'm not used to a boat this size and this heavy. When I powered up I brought the rpm's to 4k and to me...

Finally hauled and splashed my first Sea Ray. Lots and lots of hard work finally pay off. Cant wait till this weekend!

This is my first year with this boat. Don't really know too much about what is stock or not. It seems like a nice piece of hardware. I have posted a picture of the transom assembly but if you look close you will see the bottom of the reservoir. If you would like when I get home tonight I...

I thought the remote gear lube reservoir was factory. Everything has Mercruiser on it except the hose.

I have the mercathodes and they are working. I have some more work to do, but today I tig welded in a aluminium plate. Everything seems to be sealed. I have to clean out the remainder of the metal and clean up the bottom paint mess. Then I can finally get to the bellows which started this...

What type of paint should be used on the outdrive and all the brackets? Mine looks like somebody sprayed an ablative outdrive paint. I'm going to give the plate a try if it doesn't work then at least I tried.

We told by mechanic today that the motor has to removed to replace a deteriorated transom plate. My 250 DA has a Alpha One drive. I was poking around CSR looking for similar posts. It seems my transom plate has corroded just below the grease fitting. My question is... Can I carefully...

Nice catch, I'm having the same maintenance done on Friday and I will be sure to double check.. Glad to see everybody was safe. Enjoy the rest of the season, it's still early.

Thats what I thought, the previous owner had that work performed last spring, I have the reciepts. He never did the bellows?? Just doesn't make sense. I just purchased the transom service kit which includes everything you mentioned except the cable. I want to do the job myself but I'm still...

I was inspecting the 3 bellows and they seam hard almost crusty. And I have the boat scheduled to be hauled next week. I just purchased my 250 DA in Oct last year and was just going through all systems. I have never worked on a stern drive before but I have the manual and i'm not afraid...

I'll double check tonight, but I think I just have 2 wires to each pump

I currently have a bilge pump in the engine compartment and one just outside the head. They are on switches one is labeled bilge and the other is step down pump. Apparentlly they are both tied to the master ON/OFF switch. I'm going to keep the boat on a mooring this year and would like to...

Sorry Sold

Clean working Alcohol & Elec 110v stove by Seaward Princess Model. PM me with an offer

The corian is a little heavier, but not by much. I think the whole top is around 50 lbs. I did leave out the stove. I have a water tank on the starboard side that I don't use. if needed I can always add a little ballast. I won't know till I get hauled, hopefully soon.

Thats funny, I just upgraded the radio this weekend. Were you reading my todo list?

Just did corian and the sky and your imagination is the limit. It's easy to work with and it looks amazing. Check out the galley counter. http://clubsearay.com/forum/showthread.php?t=28749

What type of parts are you looking for. I have the alpha one manual, Mercruiser manual and the sealoc manual.

The corian slab was around $250 and the laminate was around $40. the rest is just labor
