    Replacement Portholes for older Sea Rays

    We got some big gusts last week and my poor 1988 S24 Sorento took some dock damage. The waves were pounding and when I got to the docks I noticed the fender line got rubbed, broke, and the boat rode the dock edge for a while which broke the plastic moldings around the 2 porthole windows. Mainly...

    Merc 5.7 quits going into reverse.

    Hey, thanks for the link! I've been doing some reading and searching online and this is exactly what everything points to. However, I have read that unless the prop is under load it's hard to tell whether the fix is 100%. I wonder if that is why in your link instruction they indicate turning the...

    Merc 5.7 quits going into reverse.

    Hello members, The title of my thread pretty much tells my story. I was motoring into my slip this weekend for the first time and when I went to put her into reverse, the engine cut out. No problems starting in throttle only mode, and no issues going into gear as well as running in forward...

    Bimini question

    Thanks Sid. Sometimes I forget that up here in Canada we're on the 10" foot. ;)

    SS Airborne

    I think I asked that exact question a few weeks back! Ha. When both my forward and rear bilge wasn't working I thought "fuses" but I was wrong. Both are wired and secured directly to the battery. I'd let others chime in on this, but my guess is you've got a wiring issue (it might have gotten...

    Bimini question

    Your 195 has a 7'6" beam and the 205 has a an 8' beam. There's only a 4" difference between them so at the very least you should entertain the idea by trying a loose fit. Bimini's pop on and off so quick it shouldn't be a big deal for you. Looking at the specs of both boat on SR's website, it...

    Marine GPS mount options - What have you done!

    I'm really interested in buying a GPS unit, and I've looked at few and I think I know the one I want. My problem is that there isn't much space in or around my dash/instruments on my 88 Sorento 24 - the windshield and top of the dash are only inches apart. I really don't want to put it over on...

    Anyone else with a 1988 SeaRay Sorrento S24?

    I've just picked up a 1988 SeaRay Sorrrento S24 and have come to realize that there doesn't seem to be many of these around. I've already had a few people say "You mean an S25, right?". No, it's a S24 but not even the SR website has any manuals for this model. So, I was just wanting to see if...

    Newby SeaRay Owner with electrical questions.

    tobnpr - Thanks. Nope, she's an S24 and I've only found 1 other member here that has the same boat. I guess it was a rare or limited model or something. I've already visited the SR website and looked through every available PDF manual and nothing is even close to my boat. Quite frustrating...

    Dave - did you ever find manuals for your 88 SeaRay Sorrento 24? I have one as well and it must...

    Dave - did you ever find manuals for your 88 SeaRay Sorrento 24? I have one as well and it must have been rare boat because I can't find anything on SR's site. Jeff (jeffquigley@eastlink.ca)

    Newby SeaRay Owner with electrical questions.

    Yes, I know the front bilge had water in it and when I turned on the batteries and hit the switch, nothing happened. So I'm assuming that one is fried. There was no water in the engine compartment so I'm guessing (if the bilge works) that it's a float one and since no water, no need to come on...

    Newby SeaRay Owner with electrical questions.

    Hello all, I'm new to the site, and new to SeaRay's so please bear with me! I've got a new/used 88 Sorrento 24 (Z24?) that I just picked up and of course it needs a few things before I can get her on the water. Currently, both bilge pumps and the wiper are not responsive when I turn them...
