you could try putting a couple bottles of sea foam fuel system cleaner in the fuel and premium gas and run that thru too. seafoam is known as a tune up in a can. maybe theres some crap built up in the carb

well after taking the boat to lake michigan this morning to put it in its normal slip now that the tow vehicle was done at the dealer and cruising around lake michigan i am happy i decided to keep my 250 sundancer. however i would really wish it was a 2010 so i could have the newest boat in...

the boat is running really nice today course not quite as hot and humid either which has alot to do with performance since the air is not as dense or something. maybe this weekend take it to waukegan and see how it does on the big lake

diesel stove? whats that? never seen one

i have been in 2 serious snowmobile crashes and survived them both at fairly high speed, been in a crash on the drag strip and survived. so im pretty much invincible. i dont care how much money i cost this economy until we get rid of the joke of a president we have now in 2012. now my sea ray...

i found a local marina that does air conditioning installations and the owner is friends of the owner of the marina i am temporally keeping my boat at .... however that may change since the chain of lakes is nice. he told me he would install a 9,000 btu marine airr unit with heat as well for...

a friend of mine keeps his boat in the chicago river all year, the marina he is at is under some condo buildings and they have a bubbler system so it doesnt freeze in the harbor area. when it is really cold he has a small electric space heater he puts in the bilge and he uses elcetric heaters to...

well finished with the afternoon ride... it seemed to be about 86 in fox lake boat still ran high 30's... close to 40. looks like rain now so probably stay around the marina or might go home and come back out on tuesday. there are still quite a few race boats on the chain that have to be running...

actually writing this from the cabin now while i eat lunch. it seems to run much better now that the prop is new and the carb was adjusted my portable gps unit shows top end this morning was 41.3 mph now that it is getting to the warmest part of the day it should be interesting to see what it...

i have never been afraid of anything... for that matter i chase tornadoes for my career and i have never video taped a tornado from further than 500 feet from it. so why wouldnt i be on the water at any time.

i have always been the one in the marina to go out no matter what the weather/water conditions are.... i have been out in beautiful conditions more than bad conditions but i have also been out with my last boat in 15's on lake michigan with fog so thick one couldnt see his nose. if things got...

here is a picture if it posts of my sundancer on its trailer waiting for me to pick it up from the marina last a week ago tuesday. it is a really clean 89 just wish i could make it considerably faster like closer to 60 + mph instead of high 30's or low 40's. its more exciting going airborne and...

well today my mom and dad wanted to go on my new boat they wanted to see what i bought. first though i got a new speedometer for it. had my buddy who owns the marina on the fox chain where it is for now install it. he also said that he changed the prop that was on it with the new one that it...

a friend of mine seems to think the sundancer is fast enough at 34 mph. he claims i should be concerned about handleing and stability more than top end. i have always been more concerned about performance than any thing else including safety and security. nothing anyone can do in the event of a...

i just got a crazy idea... maybe this winter pull out the 5.7 350 and put in a 496 in the 250 sundancer. i wonder just how much of a pain that would be.

i just found out why the dealer wants to trade boats.... this 2009 cobalt was a special order one where the buyer insisted on a 496 mag which cobalt does not usually put into the 222 as it really wasnt designed for it and no one that comes in wants to buy it. still doesnt discourage me from...

the reason i bought the sundancer is i have always wanted a cruiser. and i plan on going on lake michigan if not this season, next season for sure. however having the newest boat in the marina woldnt be too bad either and the idea of not ever having to work on it is quite appealing too, even...

personally i like the idea of having a cabin thats why i bought the sundancer it is a nice clean boat with really low hours only has 350 hours on it. i could sleep on the cobalt with the camper canvas if i got it but it wouldnt be a cabin . kinda like the idea of having the newest boat in the...

i have a 1989 sea ray 250 sundancer and was just offered a deal that is almost too good to be true. i know the owner of a marina in fox lake illinois who sells cobalt boats and he offered to trade me my sundancer for a 2009 cobalt 222 bowrider. the deal is my sundancer and $ 12,000 for the...

i kinda thought so, didnt think the 350 had the bravo drives in 89 but then i heard people at the marina its at for another day or so unless i change my mind and keep it on the fox chain started talking about it being a bravo 1 made for a little confusion since im trying to find an owners manual...
