Hi, had a number of oil pressure problems last season along with alarms. This year after an oil change and replaced both the oil sensor/sender the oil pressure has been great running steady at between 40 and 50 psi at all rpms. Today saw something very strange. When i punched the throttle...

A guy on my dock is experiencing a leak in his aluminum gas tank. Boat is a bayliner cruiser and is about 15 years old. Since my boat is close to the same vintage year it got me wondering how common this is. I assume it is due to moisture around or within the tank that causes it to rot/leak...

Was out yesterday and my alarm went off and saw the oil pressure gauge go to zero. Stopped and anchored to go check things out. Plenty of oil on the dipstick and no signs of leaks or anything anywhere. Started it back up and idled a bit and watched the gauge came up real slow. Came up to ten...

Hi, two things happened today. Was out for an hour and everything was fine. Was going to pick up a mooring for a bit and when I was cycling between neutral and forward a few timeit took a second for the engine to kick in gear and when it did it made a big clunk sound. Didn't do it in reverse...

Anyone recommend a good canvas shop around the Boston area? Even better would be someone who is willing to work on it with the boat in the water....Thanks

Hey all, Just picked up a 260 da here in the off-season here but haven't had it in the water yet and have no experience with this boat. Have had other center console boats before so not new to boating. I am slipped at MB in Quincy MA and thinking of potential trips next summer like a day...

Hi has anyone replaced a hot water heater? Looking for a source for the heater and any tips on doing it yourself. Thanks Ron

Hi all, I'm new to the site and this looks like a great forum. I did an impulse buy on a 2000 260 DA at the end of this season and besides a sea trial on a very calm river I have no experience with the boat out on the ocean and have no idea what to expect in terms of ride and handling. Was...
