PS: I was told that if we have a friend that has a built in genset I could run my
extension cord from one of his outlets to my special shore power adapter and charge up
my batteries like if I was hooked up to a shore plug.
The question is will my friend or friends let me do that and will it...
Thanks Team. My wife thinks the solar thing sounds great but she does agree with all of you, why waist $129 and not have it work the way I think it should.
We do have a 3000watt compact portable Gen with that special shore power plug and it runs threw the 2000watt inverter. My wife feels that’s...
I am looking at getting a 15 watt 12v solar panel to help out the batteries. I do not have a gen set nor do I like running my portable gen to top off the batteries.
I dont allways have power available because we like to anchor out so I thought this would be a good investment.
What do you all...
Thank you guys for your input.:smt038
I could shoot myself for not using the proper meter; I used a regular meter that does not measure true amps, I used my amp clamp meter and it looks to be doing ok, I was reading 13-16 amps. Being a guy that serviced HVAC equipment for years I am...
I am using my Fluke meter on the amp side.
Touching white and to load on one side of the breaker and then white to line on the other side of the breaker.
I am also getting 28 amps from the line side of the breaker to the first out let that is the GFI.
One thing that does make sence and its...
It doesn’t matter what boat, what matters is the panel breaker should trip.
Put it this way. Take your home wire. Black white green. Keep the white wire and green wire and don’t cut them, Take that black wire that is 115v 30amp and cut in half, take your panel breaker the is 15amps and hook...

I have 115v 28amp coming into my panel from shore, from the panel I have one circuit breakers for all the outlets and that is set for 15amps.
I am getting 115v 28amps to the panel but I am still getting 115v 28amp out, it does not matter what side I test on the breaker pole, it’s the...
check eveything while engines are on and while they are off and just look around.
They do have a dye you can run, you shut off you sea cock and use a 5 gal buket and
put the dye mixed with 4 gal of water and urun it for 1 minute.
Take a black light and look around and see if your gaskets are...
If anyone in here have a copy of the PARTS manual I would love a copy of it by fax or email if it's in PDF.
I looked up the Sea Ray and they only go back to 1989
and every time I want to find something I have to email them what I am after. :huh:
Please let me know if you have one and if...
I went nuts with Sea Ray until I got an older guy that worked for Sea Ray before Brunswick Boat Group took over.
I was looking for the portlight for my 1984 34' Sedan Flybridge and the parts files on SeaRay sight dont go back that far. I emailed them and the first guys did not know anything so I...
:smt021I am looking for 4 windows that go in the forward stateroom.
I have a 1984 SRV 34 Sedan. The person before us painted the small windows
and it looks like crap. I got one clean but the window is not thick glass but Plexiglas and it’s just as bad as having the black paint on them.
Is...
RazorRobb, you should think about getting a bigger boat so you
can enjoy Seattle better. Just an Idea:huh:
