Haven't used the boat much this summer but did a weekend trip last weekend. Starboard motor lost some oil pressure and minutes later the Smartcraft alarm went off showing oil pressure sensor. Can I get this part at NAPA, WM or should I use a Mercruiser part. Also, any idea where it's located...

I have a Kohler 5E genny which last week quit pumping water. I replaced the impeller (which was intact but ripped) and put it back together with a new one. Now it's leaking from the bottom bolt, the one that you cannot fully remove. I took everything apart again and checked the metal cover plate...

Long story short, a good friend has a 2001 340 with 6.2's and one of the ECM's is showing a bad injector. I told him that a bad battery can cause this and he's going to check it out now but if not he needs the board ASAP. Does anyone know where he could find one quickly? Thanks for your help...

I met Kevin on this forum a few years ago and we became good friends. Well fast foward a few years and I ended up with some issues on both my motors. Kevin flew in from out of state on his days off from work, spent 2+ days helping me (he did most or all of the work) and flew back home on...

A friend on mine is selling his 340 and is purchasing a 390MY in Lake St Clair area. I told him I would see if I could find a good surveyor and transport company. He's unsure whether he'll bring it around my water or have it dismantled and trucked down to Florida. Thanks for the help! Perry

Can you use an automotive GM head in a marine engine? What are the differences between the two?

I was reading Boattest.com and saw this article on a new Bayliner 642. Was shocked to see the actual boat and dimensions. Who does the naming for their boats? :huh:

I'm helping a friend who has a 2001 340DA. His windlass is inop. I went into his ER last night and looked for the High Amp breaker but on his it's not resettable. He has a main (red) wire coming in and one going out. No power on either side. I looked around his ER and his layout is much...

We went on a 4 day trip over the Labor Day weekend. I ran the genny from the time we left dock until we reached our destination (roughly 2 hours). It still had good water flow. I shut it down for the weekend. When we went to leave 4 days later I started the genny and no water flow. I figured...

Was this due to union workers pissed off that non union workers were there to help or just angry Ny'ers taking our their frustration on anybody that came along? Very sad to see that somebody who travels a great distance to help out with the restoration/rebuilding of NY get treated like this...

Very surprising? http://msn.foxsports.com/nba/gallery/athlete-campaign-endorsement-gallery-lebron-james-gabby-douglas-derek-jeter#tab=photo-title=&photo=

Now the gelcoat is stained yellow? I tried using deck cleaner on it but it's still yellow in color. I've never seen gelocat stain like this. Should I try a cleaner wax or maybe some hull cleaner (toilet cleaner The Works) :huh: . All ideas are appreciated!

Throughout my readings here I know a few of you have used these manifolds but now when I'm trying to search for the posts I cannot find them. Can anybody give me an insight to these one piece manifolds?

I was browsing Craigslist and ran across this ad. http://tampa.craigslist.org/pnl/boa/2701582436.html

I have never been aboard a Navy ship and was lucky enough to get tickets to view this boat. It was amazing, 419 feet long and will run 40 knots in 4 foot seas (at least that is what they tel you) but I bet it's even faster. Only $440 million to build. No props, it runs off of water propulsion...

I've tried to search this but couldn't find what I was looking for. We were on the water from Friday through Sunday last week and when I started the motors to head home the port motor would not trim down. We anchor in shallower waters so i usuallly put in both motors in trailer mode once...

I haven't been to Sheppards in a while but if the weather holds I will be there. It will be a long haul but what the hell, it's only gas (and money)!

Does anybody have one of these inflatables or give me an idea on the good/bad of an Achilles inflatable?

I have a 2005 280DA. It came with a NEC 15" flat screen ED (enhanced definition) TV. It's mounted to a "black box" which is mounted to the pull out and swivel. The box that SR built looks to be glued, screwed and stapled together. The mount the TV is attached to has two small phillips screws but...
