I would be interested in opinions regarding rudder cavitation. According to my mechanic, it is typical of boats to have some rudder cavitation. I noticed some markings on my rudder when we hauled out, and was wondering what the group thought of this. Props are fine, and no unusual wear/tear...

I have searched the forums and saw some people have replaced the rubber gasket that lays on top of the window. I contacted Sea Ray and was able to get the Taylor Made part number, but my local Sea Ray dealer informed me the entire hardtop would have to be removed in order to have it replace...

I just purchased a 2004 Sea Ray 48 MY. I noticed this past weekend the power steering reservoir was getting low. What is the process to de-pressurize, and refill? I search the forum and the links for the manuals are no longer valid. I know once I have refilled it, I use a tire pump or air...

Noticed the battery switch would not "energize" for the generator in the salon electrical panel. I opened the engine room, and "energized" the generator where it will stay on with no issues. Generator fired up with no issues. If I "de-engerize" the generator from the salon electrical panel it...

I am DTV subscriber today, and the marina has a DTV dish that has open ports I can connect to. My question is can I just hook the coax in transom to the DTV switch and turn off the Glomex and receive a DTV signal to my receiver? Normally at home I just run a straight coax line from the SWM to...

Could someone point me where I can purchase the dockline straps that are use to hold docklines in the transom? The Sea Ray part # is 185538 (Rope Dockling Strap only White with Hardware).

Unfortunately, this post is a quick vent about the USCG. On the 4th Jul, USCG flagged me to be pulled over for a "Safety Inspection". They wanted to tie up to me which I was wary about as Lake Michigan was kicking up some waves near Milwaukee, however USCG wanted to tie up and board me. Upon...

I just replaced my hot water tank on the 360 last weekend as the old one was rusting out and started to leak about an inch of water. This week I noticed the hot water tank compartment was dry, but the compartment to the right of it seemed to have condensation in it. Not alot but enough to use...

This past weekend I removed the old hot water tank from the aft seating area on my 360 since it started to leak. Not sure what Sea Ray was thinking by placing a hot water tank in the aft seating area. Horrible design in my opinion. New one is installed, and aft storage is dry once more. Two...

Does any know if I can replace the muffler (part #1598564) on my starboard side while the boat is in the water? My gut tells me yes since it is above the water line, but wanted to see what everyone else thought. Thank you!

I was wondering if anyone could help me identify this part. This is the bottom portion that holds the sunpad down. http://i1316.photobucket.com/albums/t604/cstory73/20130429_090345_zpsa04f5a88.jpg

Looking to see if anyone would like to sell a sunpad that fits the 02 360. I have been looking around online and haven't found anything yet. Tried the normal Sea Ray part websites with no luck. Thanks!

To all, Looking for suggestions.... Cruising today at 3100 RPMS doing about 22MPH on calm Lake Michigan, and all of sudden Starboard engine loses powers and RPMs come down. Immediately bring both engines down to idle. All guages (temp, oil, battery) reading normal. In idle the starboard...

Noticed my starboard drive was dripping just a little this past weekend. I wasn't too sure if I have drip less or packing so I looked up the parts for my 2002 360 and according to the manual it says packing. Only 171 hours on the engines. Can anyone weigh in and confirm or deny what seal I...

This will be my first year preparing the vaccuflush system for summer. I stored my 360 in heated storage this year, so no winterization needed besides emptying the head and rinsing out before I stored her for the winter. I did take the suggestion of using some vegetable oil to keep the rubber...

On my 2002 360, I don't have a bow thruster, but I do see where it would go in the hull. Question, since it looks like the hull is prepped already to have a bow thruster installed, how hard would it be to put in a bow thruster? Always thought it would be a "nice" to have on those windy days...

I am wanting to clean the glomex antenna and the radar to remove the acid rain buildup of dirt and grime. I was thinking of using CLR with a sponge to see if I can get both units white again. Any suggestions or precautions I need to do? Thanks!

So this is my first boat that I had documented with the Coast Guard. I received the certificate in the mail earlier this week, and I know I need to put the official number in the bilge area starting off with "NO" first. Two questions I have: 1. When mounting the numbers in the bildge area...

I have two quotes to replace the enclosure (Sea Mark Sumbrella fabric and 30 gauge isinglass) on the 360. One quote is 4200, while the other one is 5400. Same materials and same type of isinglass (can't get the Strata glass as we take the enclosure off alot, and having kids makes it impossible...

I have a 2002 Sea Ray 360 Sundancer (with Merc 8.1S with only 196 hours), and during the winter oil change the mechanic noticed the port engine's transmission sensor was disconnected. Mechanic said tranmission fluid was in great condition. They are going to screw/ground the sensor back to the...
