Hi all. I have a '94 Sundancer 290, and am having an ongoing steering problem. The steering wheel seems to "default" to hard right, meaning that if I put the wheel in what should be the neutral position, the boat turns right, pretty drastically. Turning the boat left, or even keeping it...

I had my 94 Sundancer 290 winterized and spring commissioned by the marina, and things are mostly well. I have some questions about/ issues with power steering and trim tabs, but I'll save those for another day. My biggest issue right now is water that I'm pretty sure is coming up through the...

Hey! I posted this in the general maintenance thread, but someone suggested I post it here - here's hoping someone here can help! Thanks in advance. "And possibly power steering fluid in gear lube reservoir! I had a friend "help" me out by topping off some fluids, and I'm worried that I now...

And possibly power steering fluid in gear lube reservoir! I had a friend "help" me out by topping off some fluids, and I'm worried that I now have the wrong fluids in places. Specifically, I think there is gear lube (bluish stuff) in the power trim reservoir, and I think there *might* be power...

I have a 1994 290 Sundancer. I'd really like to learn how to do basic maintenance and diagnostics, as the labor charges are putting me into the poorhouse! I've got all the manuals and have been playing around a little, but I'd really like someone to come down and work with me for a day to learn...

Due to a miscommunication with the marina, my 1994 SunDancer was never winterized. :( I keep it in the water in DC, and we had a seriously crappy winter. I've been to the boat, and it appears to be in okay shape (that is, it hasn't flooded, or sunk...), but I have no idea how to be sure it's...

Hi all. I'm a first time boat-owner (and a woman), docked at Washington Marina. I bought the boat from my dad last year, and had only ever run the boat on a TVA lake (Chickamauga, TN). The waters here are new to me, and I would appreciate any and all advice! Once I get more comfortable, I'd...
