On my boat, I have 12v to the vacuum generator for the head system all the way to the motor. Voltage drops to zero, however when the motor tries to start. The motor is new, and verified good, I ran it connected directly to the battery. Also I have tested and have voltage all the way to the...

I need to find a Kohler Tech that will come to the boat in Tampa. I have a 5E that will not start, just cranks and does not fire. Any advice is appreciated.

One of my engines will only start if the throttle is advanced about 50%. The other engine starts just by hitting the iginition switch. It does not matter if the engine is warm, or cold. It just wants some extra throttle to get going. Once idling, it is fine. Techs have looked it over, and...

The boat is 03 280 DA. I have Vessel View Mobile installed and reading data from both engines. I am considering insalling a vessel view display (703). When we installed vessel view mobile we ran the cable from the engines to under the dash, for better reception, and any potential changes in the...

What is the best way to determine air draft. I have 2003 280 Sundancer, and need to know air draft for an upcoming lighted boat parade in Tampa. Need to be under 12 feet

My 2003 280 Sundancer has a new issue... Sunday, just after getting on plane we all of the sudden lost speed, and stbd engine revs went high, alarm sounded. No odd noises, no smells etc. Engine remained running, did not overheat etc. But when I tried to put into drive or reverse, engine revs...

Somehow, the bow rail got a pretty good bend in it. I am not sure how it happened, but that's really not important now. The bend is just forward of the second stanchion on the port side. Looks like maybe the boat got hung up on something when being put into the high and dry, but I am not...

The boat is an 03 280. The button on the helm lights up when the blower switch on the generator panel is activated, and turns off when shut down. However, the button on the helm will not activate the blowers. All other functions on that switch pad appear to be working (trim tabs etc). Since the...

Where is a good place to go for fireworks on the 4th? We are out of Apollo Beach. Thanks

Need help finding a stbd blower vent cover for an 03 280. Mine blew off while being transported to my marina. I have been looking everywhere. If you know of an active Ebay sale or other source, let me know.

We are moving up from a Sundeck to a Sundancer 280, and I am looking for good day trips and short overnights in the area. We are in Apollo Beach and are new to cruising. So I need to start the boss off with easy trips to get her used to going further than our normal day on the Sundeck. Thanks...

Hello Wise Sport Cruiser People - We will be moving from a 240 Sundeck. We are empty nesters and the thrill of dayboating, tubing and entertaining kids/teens is over. We want to spend a day and or a night on the boat, and I want to pee standing up (Can't do that on Sundeck). Also want the dogs...

Trying to make the title searchable - Have an 05 240 Sundeck. New engine installed by Marine Max prior to my purchase, have put maybe 10 hours on it. Yesterday ran across Tampa Bay to St. Pete at moderate pace (3200 RPM). Had a great lunch, went to start the engine. It started, idled briefly...

Just picked up this 05 240 Sundeck. Traded in my 01 225 Weekender. Enjoying the new boat and layout which is just about perfect for Tampa Bay.

I am trying to troubleshoot the main deck speakers on my 2001 WE 225. The RCA plugs are connected, but the speakers in the cockpit are not working. I assume there is an AMP somewhere, but cannot find it. Also is there a fuse for the amp in the main fuse panel?

We have a 2003 Sea Ray 225 Weekender and have been operating out of Maximo in St. Pete until this season. We now operate out of Apollo Beach (Lands End). Love the boat, happy to find this forum! Anyone from Tampa out there? Makin' Waves...
