    6.2 Stalling

    Hi all, I have a 6.2 Mercruiser with DTS & a B3 drive in an '07 260 Sundeck. Raw water cooling with new manifolds & risers last year. We use a non-ethanol fuel. Lots of oil in the crankcase. Engine running just fine, however, occasionally upon start-up it will run 5-10 seconds & cut out. I hear...

    Steering Wheel

    Hi, Believe the nut securing my steering wheel could use a 1/4 turn, sometime before we get it back in the water next Spring. Tilt mechanism feels secure & thinking it's merely the nut holding the wheel on has backed off over time. Anyone have experience removing the front cover as pictured ...

    270 SLX Camper top

    Hi, Looking at an '07 270 SLX this weekend to potentially replace our 260 Sundeck. 496 HO, Bravo III, DTS & closed cooling I believe. Anyone here with this generation boat ever put a camper top on it ? We get rained on occasionally & would consider spending the $$ if we can find a well made...

    Seat Foams

    Hi, Anyone know who the OEM manufacturer was for Sea Ray captains chairs in the 2007 model year ? The foam in a bolster is in bad shape & I'll need to find a replacement piece over the Winter. Thank You all.

    Southco Keys

    Pair of # 5008 available if anyone needs them. Bought them new last year, no fit. Since found the correct keys for my application. First reply from someone needing them, I can put them in an envelope & send them Canada Post.

    Wanted-Tweeter mounts

    Hi, Put a complete set of new speakers on the boat last. Everything is by Polk including the db1001 tweeters. While installing the tweeters I used the recessed cups & turned mounting screw too tight, shortly after the recessed cup started to crack. They work with a machine screw through the...

    Sea Ray Outing

    The Admiral has been considering an outing for just the girls-friends since Grade 3, all of them. We've been on the water since '11 & acquired our current 260 Sundeck in '15. While on the water she does most of the driving. I do most of the deck hand chores while directing her on controlling the...

    We're considering The Great Loop in 3-4 years. Big step for us but we can't stop bringing it up! Friends of ours has a sister & husband who completed it about 2 years ago, 12 month trip. We'll be meeting them soon. We're currently running a 260 Sundeck in our local river system & have been avid...

The gaskets/pads that rest between the waketower & the hull have seen better days & I'd like to replace them. Great Lakes Skipper has a hardware kit available that includes the gaskets I need &...

    Polk Momo

    Hi, I need to replace the OEM speakers this coming Spring. The originals are a mix of Polk Momo MMC650, MMC6500 & a 10" subwoofer. The OEM manual for the tweeters with the MMC 6500 set directs the installer to drill a 2-3/16" hole. Anything new I can find new is calling for a 2" hole. The...

    '07 260 Sundeck ?

    Hi, Anyone else have an '07 260 Sundeck with the water sports tower & intergral bimini top ? This differs from the Z5 rack in that it will fold up like any other bimini when not in use. OEM boot for the bimini was missing but dealer had a very nice replacement made from Sunbrella. Couple...

    TACO Stainless Parts

    Hi, Are there any other surplus vendors for popular boat parts out there ? Both Great Lakes Skipper & Flounder Pounder Marine do not have what I'm looking for. Just finished the distributor/local dealer route & was very surprised at the costs. Don't mind paying the price for anything but cannot...

    Z5 Wake Tower

    Have a pair of rubber turn knobs moulded over 3/8" bolts on the rear tower supports. Bolts are seized but knobs will turn with a strap wrench on them. Thinking they have a hex head on the bolt moulded into the knob. I have replacements & anti-seize to go with them. Anyone ever have one of...

    6.2l - No Restart !

    Had a great day out on the water today. 2007 260 SunDeck with a 6.2 litre DTS, Bravo III & 200 hours. It was well over 30 C here today which is like a serious heat wave. Ran like a top out & back about 2 hours each way. Idling around near the ramp waiting for another boat to get out & the engine...

    Acct. Switch

    Hi, I have an accessory switch on the helm, currently not used. Should be a conductor & a splice point from it buried somewhere under the dash. Line side is fed from a 15A fuse, conductor # 508. Anyone know the rating of the spare switch ? Believe it would be a Carling product. Thanks, Steve C.

    Getting water !

    Out twice so far this year & thoroughly enjoyed the larger size of hull. Each time I pull the garboard drain once back on the trailer I'm seeing about a gallon of clean water draining out. Loaded it a little crooked last time so I put the drain plug back in & refloated it without restarting the...

    Bennett o-rings

    Hi, Contacted Bennett direct & was given a P/N for replacement O-rings on my '07 260 Sundeck. None of our local suppliers are able to access the parts. Have you anyone in Canada that offers them ? Thank You, Steve C.

    "O" ring kits

    Hi, One actuator is leaking on my '07 260 Sundeck. I contacted Bennett & was given the P/N for a replacement o-ring set of 2. From there I went locally to a number of Bennett vendors & none had access to that particular P/N. Do you have any suppliers in Canada able to supply this kit ? Thank You
