    From what I have been able to see in the forum, it appears that the location of the galvanic isolator is behind the AC panel. I dropped my panel tonight and found nothing.

    Mystery coolant leak

    7.4 L MPI FWC motor in the 98 270 DA has started a mystery coolant leak. I say mystery becasue I filled the overflow to the 'cold' line and ran the boat for about 5-6 hours. After the motor cooled down (and for a couple of days) the coolant level in the overflow pretty much stayed at the same...

I have confirmed that I have a solid 'glass hull, no coring and I am having a heck of a time finding a spot where it will read. I have tried the vaseline to the base of the...

    Anyone using dock bumper/dock guards in place of fenders?

    Just bought our first Sea Ray, a 98 270DA (traded our Maxum 2400scr) and love the boat. Our new slip is in an old marina (but in a sweet location- False Creek downtown Vancouver for those that are familiar with the area) and the slips are not very wide. I have about 10 1/2 feet at the narrowest...
