    1985 300 Weekender Fuel Tank Cleaning

    I restored my 1978 weekender, complete. One thing I overlooked was the ruddersupports. With inboards it is important the rudders are supported or the may not track true. I found my rubber supports where rotted right through and it has always been a fresh water boat. the packing was allowing alot...

    A simple upgrade to a hand pump or electric head with a holding tank would be way less money and a very nice upgrade

    255 sdb power options

    I had them in a 1984 260 and beat them daily, they where great engines. Change the ignition and get rid of the voltage regulator I think. There is some electronic issues that is best replaced and then they were very good engines. Shop for the work also!!

    Thinking about a 1970's weekender 30

    In My opinion when you are looking at a boat more than 15 years old you need to look at it individually. The boats made with a core hull have problems that solid glass hulls of the 70’s don’t. You can buy a 1978 that is better than a 1988, by far. I personally know of late 1980’s boats that have...

    Cetol or Teak oil?

    I use Cetol and will never go back to oil. I am going on my third year with only touch up except for my platform. Cetol is better hands down, looks great but so easy and long lasting.

    Can get a '76 srv 300 for $3000 Is it worth it?

    http://clubsearay.com/forum/showthread.php?t=26607&highlight=jffacets I have found an unlimited amount of enjoyment from my 1978. I planned to strip it and completely refit it when I bought it. When you are done you have the widest 30’ boat Sea Ray ever built. New ones are a different kind...

    Bad first day of the season for Atlantis :(

    I lost my port engine through that very sequence. It bent a rod at high rpm so it was cooked. It was an autopsy on the fried engine that reveled the cause. I really didn’t care because I was installing two new engines in a total refit anyway. It may be worth it to look into short blocks, marine...
