    2007 260 DA Speedo not working

    Hey folks. Was out Saturday and my Speedo is not working. I did just change out GPS and had to wire so the first thing I will check is any wires coming to/from speedo. Aside from that, where is the speedo pickup in the water? Outdrive? Hull? Thanks a million

    2007 260DA Ignition issue. Need help!!!!

    I was cranking over the motor and everything just died. There is no longer power to ignition. Is there a breaker or fuse I am missing?? If I bypass hot wire, cranks fine. Driving me crazy. The wiring schematic calls for a fuse in position 2 but no fuse and no wire. This is driving me MAD!!!!

    Where are all the boats????

    Not sure about other marinas but my marina in Westbrook, CT is pretty sparse this year. Last year, there was not a slip available. This year...probably 15 slips open on my dock alone....Strange because from a business standpoint, North America is up a healthy percentage from last year...Weather???
