Anyone been down this road yet? My fridge is about 5 years ago and like everyone else we have absolutely loved it. Went to the boat this weekend and freezer is thawed, ice melted and all the fridge items are hot. The light is on, you can hear it running. I have it powered off for now hoping a...

I was rolling on Interlux Micron Extra yesterday morning. A bee buzzed my head in the barn and I leaned back quickly. In doing so my roller barely grazed the gelcoat above my tape line. Crap Had some On&Off on the boat but it didn't phase it. I assume this is something a pro will have to wet...

Hello friends, during this past off season I had a company redo my bimini, side windows and aft cover. My boat is older and during the reno they suggested I go to the welt and Flex-A-Rail track system like newer boats utilize. They would glue/screw the track along the fore and aft of my arch and...

In the rear corners of my cockpit and in the rear corners of my hatch gutters I have a plastic bulkhead fitting that accepts a 1" hose. These fittings help channel washdown water through said hoses through the hull. All four of them have cracked and broken where they thread together on either...

Looks pretty clean, priced well. Anyone know the boat? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1996-Sea-Ray-450-Sundancer-420-CAT-diesels-fresh-water-650-hours-clean-boat-?cmd=ViewItem&item=180912768742#vi-content

Silly question, and I havent even taken the old components apart yet but I have to ask. Im replacing a defective Koden radar radome and mount with a dual mount holding a new radar system and a KVH sattv dome. I know the receiver powers the KVH through the coax cable, 40v I think? Instead of...

Took all my cockpit upholstery apart to have the shop recover it all. The back portions have a thin piece of wood as a frame and support for where the backs attach to the boat. The wood has a mild musty odor but are in good condition. Id like to seal the wood with something while its all apart...

I have a vintage express cruiser and like all older expresses I have the long windows that run the length of the salon. Like all older expresses these windows leak. The PO sealed them internally so they no longer slide and only once a year do they seap a little water. I am in the process of...

I am in the market for a sedan bridge boat. It seems most people who own 480s have stepped up from a 400. The thought of buying a boat, the surveys, haul outs, locating, transportation, etc all stress me out. On one hand the 480 is borderline out of our budget but is do-able, especially in a...

I guess its never really crossed my mind until I have read some posts on this forum, but where is your a/c unit located? It seems most SeaRays have them under a seat in the salon area correct? I assume they are sealed off pretty well from the bilge? Reason I ask is, my main a/c for the salon on...

Norcold died in my boat. Had local place go check it out to see if it could be repaired. I talked to the guy on the phone who was very nice, he said he tried for 30 min to get the old one out for inspection but it sounded like the compressor wasnt running. He couldnt get the fridge out and said...

Thinking about Sat TV for our express. We have two kids, one on the way and they want Spongebob and dad would like to watch some football every now and then. Ive searched and most seem to like the KVH stuff. There are just so many different models and options. Heres the background: We're in KY...

What are your feelings about the 10% rule and boating? You know, where you are only suppose to buy a boat that costs 10% of your net worth. With this in mind are all these members with $400k-800K boats really worth 4-8 mil? If so let me know what you're doing please! I would truly love to step...

I have a question, and concern, about the vinyl products out there. I am looking at either the Amtico or the Lonseal products. (Someone told me they were the same, but thats another discussion). Is it just me or is the thought of vinyl flooring on a boat really scary? I've pulled vinyl out of...
