Last ditch effort to find a used port switch pad for my 340. Same pad for 280,300, and 340. I have a trip coming in mid July and either find a used one or have to order from FP and get the job done prior to the trip. I know if I buy a used pad I will probably eventually have to do the FP install...
I have searched and found little on this. This weekend I noticed some cracks on the helm between the sliding door and the window actuator. I think I was so bummed about it I did not think to take pictures at the time to share. The area is about 4" circumference and is almost like paint pealing...
Looking at picking up the Newport series and noticed the infrared is not much price difference. Has anyone went to infrared and regretted the move? Pros and cons? They talk them up in lititure but looking for experience to guide me.
First fall winterizing, while pulling the batteries I found this wire tied in the bilge. The previous owner had all work done including winterizing and he has no idea. The end with the O rings resembles the lower unit shaft and I was thinking a plug for when units are off? There was only one...
I posted this on a different thread with out much response and hoping I can get some input here. I have searched around and have not found anything on this so maybe you guys(or gals) can help. Took a trip for couple day up the St Lawrence to Brockville this past week and had a couple problems...
I can not find anything when reading posts on leaks about how to properly seal the rail sanctions. the tube from the rail to the sanction is hollow and I believe water can run down the horizontal rail to the vertical rail fitting and get into the hollow tube. My question is this... I believe I...
Ok, so its only a drip from the port wiper. It has rained a little:smt043this spring and the water drips out of the plastic casing and onto the cabin hatch. I have pulled it off and just dont get it. I am thinking there is a rubber boot seal of type that I will need to replace. This weekend she...
Soooo....a good buddy of mine is between boats and looking hard before spring and I am kinda enjoying the hunt along with him, dont we all:huh: He is very particular about the condition of the vessel, arn't we all:huh: but I mean VERY. So he finds one finaly that merrits the possibility of his...
Ok... so I went to the Rochester NY boat show this weekend and they had a fairly good selection of small cruisers. Monterey, Chaperel(sp), and Sea Ray. Having a 1990 250 I was excited to go through the 250 sizes and must say Sea Ray has its own feel that I love but all seemed small and felt like...
have a friend who just purchased a raytheon used 95 or 96(yr) unit and asked if shortening cable would effect the performance of the unit (sorry but he is a bayliner driver:smt021)
Just bought a 90 250 da. Love the boat! had it last two weekends and have to pull it this weekend for the winter unless I can figure out how not to work and take it south...not likely. Short period of time to get to know her but looking forward to spring. The boat has a "macerator" as well as a...
Just bought a 1990 250 da with 7.4 and bravo III. Previous owners did a great job with her. Has extended swim platform, electric head, windless, led lights..... after years with a 255 four winns I am amazed how much more boat I feel with her. This is a great forum and can not wait to dig into it.
