    Official 390 E.C. Thread

    It turned out great! Is there any chance I could get a copy of those specs you used to make this tab?

    390 E.C. vacuflush trouble shooting

    Ended up replacing both the kinked hose and the pump motor. Ordered a new Sealand "whisper" motor, but it seems to be as loud as my previous one.

    That trim tab turned out awesome! Do you still have the specs for that? I would love to add this to my list of projects for the fall.

    390 E.C. vacuflush trouble shooting

    Hi everyone, I have a 1988 390 Express cruiser that I purchased last fall. I love the boat but have had constant problems with the vacuflush clogging. It finally stopped flushing completely last week therefore I went out there yesterday and replaced the duckbills thinking that might be my...

    390 E.C. Windlass Discussion

    Did your plasteak insert have the same shape as your bow? My piece fits width and lengthwise but does not match the shape of the bow, it just isn't a great fit. I could send it in for modifications but don't want to wait for the return as I'm trying to get this project finished before the marina...

    390 E.C. Windlass Discussion

    Thanks for everyone's advice, just ordered my Good F850C today. Although I had originally thought that my original windlass was a Good, it was actually a Powerwinch model 602. Good still will provide me a trade in value for the old windlass (sorry Kevin). I am also waiting on a new plasteak bow...

    390 E.C. Windlass Discussion

    Did they charge you for the modification? I just measured using the dimensions that the plasteak company provided, and it appears that it should be an exact fit. However, it would be nice to know that if it doesn't fit, modifications would be made free of charge.

    390 E.C. Windlass Discussion

    When you ordered your plasteak bow insert did you have to provide measurements or is the insert crafted to fit older model sea rays?

    390 E.C. Windlass Discussion

    I purchased my 1988 390 E.C. back in August and had all kinds of problems with the windlass (rope only). I am assuming that this windlass is original to the boat and although it does work, it gets jammed up and the rope slips through the wheels often. I was told that the E.C. often came with...

    Replacement Express Cruiser seats

    Thanks Frank, the base on mine must have cracked because I can't imagine why they would have removed it otherwise. I've researched aftermarket captains chairs but with the wide beam on the 390 all of the aftermarkets have all been too small. Thanks for the suggestion about the dual bucket seats...

    Replacement Express Cruiser seats

    Thanks for the advice everyone. I may just end up reupholstering the seats myself like some of you suggested. I've been getting estimates from local custom shops ranging anywhere from 4 to 7 thousand for reupholstering.

    Official 390 E.C. Thread

    I just bought my 1988 390 express cruiser 2 months ago and figured that I'd save some money and change the oil myself. I purchased a jabsco motorized oil pump and removed the oil through the dipstick tube (was informed this was easiest and cleanest way to change the oil). Unfortunately I was...

    Official 390 E.C. Thread

    Hello all! I'm just wondering if anyone can tell me where I might find an original stock seat for a 1988 390 E.C. (drivers seat). Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I purchased the boat this summer and the previous owner had replaced the original stock seat with a much shorter, odd looking...
