    smart craft gauges

    My gauge keeps reading "totalizer", and only displays the engine temp and trim setting. By the way this is on the Tachometer. Is there a procedure to change the display and readings?

    230 SLX Thread!

    I was wondering if anyone can help me with a bravo 3 question? I just got a new 230 slx 350 bravo 3 and used to have a 210 select 350 alpha 1. I notice with this bravo 3 it needs almost no trim while underway, is this normal? My old 210 alpha I could trim up halfway while underpower. Is there a...

    Ski locker water

    I expected some big thing, however all they did was tilt the boat nose high on the trailer, then any water would go towards the rear/ski locker. Then they would shop vac any water they could get. After no more visible water was showing they dried it out with fans and a dehumidifier. After that...

    Ski locker water

    Yes, you are right he did mention inner liner and from what I understand the water was/is getting between the inner liner and hull. The true test will be when in the first part of Sept. when I pull the boat out of the water for winter and see if any water is in the ski locker area(under the...

    Ski locker water

    Here is the latest update. Last week Sea Ray sent a Tech out to my local dealer and took my boat for a few days to try and remedy this water issue. What he found was after taking boat out to lake and testing he found water coming in from the rub rail area where the top of the boat is connected...

    Ski locker water

    The inner liner goes all the way from the nose thru the ski locker into the engine compartment everything is designed to go thru the ski locker or end up in the ski locker. Thats why I caulked the three plugs on the floor because it seems like a screwy design to have non watertight holes in the...

    Ski locker water

    Thanks for clarifying I wasnt understanding now I got what you mean. As far as the anchor locker goes it is an open cavity and would drain directly into the ski locker. I dont see any signs of obvious wetness in that area nor any cracks or holes. The way water would enter is from the bow cover...

    Ski locker water

    As far as cracks by the bow/anchor area I dont see that as a possibility in this situation. I'm still thinking the transducer or drain plug. After caulking the ski locker last year I'm fairly confident that water did not soak the foam from above the floor leaking down but came from below.

    Ski locker water

    My ski locker looks exactly like that with the exception I have an additional three holes in floor of ski locker right down the center. The holes are spaced about 2 feet apart and have are the same size and have the same plugs as the two on the side as shown in you picture. The holes in my floor...

    Built in cooler is in passenger dash and has a line that drains outside of boat. Drain line is hooked up and not plugged.

    Ski locker water

    I thought it was fixed last year so I went ahead and caulked the holes in the floor of the ski locker so rain or surface water would not soak DOWN into foam. As far as the anchor or from seat cushions go they all drain in an open cavity at the bottom of each. I can see all the way down into the...

    Also I am dealing with the dealer and they have been attentive however the problem has not been fixed properly and I was hoping from people here on this site with various experience might know where the most likely culprets are so I can get this fixed once and for all.

    Ski locker water

    Hi to answer the question before is that I'm only in fresh water not salt water. I have also checked that nothing is leaking water out of boat while on the trailer figuring if water was inside boat it would also come out of the boat when not in the water. Nothing is showing any wetness on the...

    Ski locker water

    Right now the boat is about level on the trailer and the water is in the foam in the ski locker. There was no visible water in the bilge or the ski locker. If the boat is in the water how would you check to see if water is coming in if you cant see below the false floor into the cavity where the...

    Ski locker water

    Thanks for the reply. The part that is confusing is there was no visible water in the locker until I pulled the plugs out of the floor, then the water started to come up thru the holes. As far as external holes the two big ones are the transducer and drain plug. Could the transducer cause this...

    Ski locker water

    Here is an update. I caulked the three holes in the floor of the ski locker so if any water came in from washing or rain would not get into the foam or floor. Now the water has built up and has no where to go and has bubbled the three plugs. I released the caulking and removed the three plugs in...
