    anyone try to repair a cabin door handle like this that's loose?

    I had the same on my 260 DA. I removed the metal trim on the door and peeled off the vinyl, used a hole cutter to cut a 2 inch hole in the back of the door to get access to the nuts. Once tightened, I filled the hole with the cut out wood, sealed and then re-attached the vinyl and trim. It's not...

    Raytheon Ray210 VHF Replacement

    Hi Laurence, I recently replaced mine on my 260 DA with a Raymarine Ray60. Unfortunately the cut-out at the helm was a little too big but the radio slotted straight in to the surround plate for the 210 very snugly so I left the surround in place. Next time I am at the boat, I'll take a picture...

    Replacement canopies for 260 DA

    I agree. I don't think the original design was the greatest anyway but without original templates, it's unlikely a canvas maker could match up replacement sections so it looks like a whole new canvas set is going to be needed.

    Replacement canopies for 260 DA

    Hi, I recently enquired about replacement bimini and camper canopies for my 2000 260 DA on the Great Lakes boat Top web site. In their reply, they advised that they no longer keep patterns for this model/year. I'd like to get original pattern replacements, so was wondering if there were any...

    260 DA seat/sun lounger

    Hi all, I have a 2000 260 DA. I have lost the T-bar handle for the cockpit sea which converts to a sun longer. It doesn't appear on the Sea Ray parts list. Could anyone tell me what size the thread is so I can make a new one. My seat has alway been very difficult to pull down, due to the...

    Steering Wheel adjustment

    After replacing the tilt helm with a new unit, the steering is a lot stiffer as there is no play from the helm unit but there is still some movement due to the rack. I think hawkerjim's hydraulic solution is the way to go for me. cheers David

    Steering Wheel adjustment

    Hi Jim, I have a 2000 260DA with a similar problem. I posted a question on the forum recently but it was probably badly worded as all that responded assumed thre was a problem with the cable or with the outdrive leg. My problem is with the Teleflex performance tilt mechanism which has a lot...

    260 Sundancer Thread.........Comments questions and answers

    , I did mine while the boat was in the water. I had a couple of bungs ready to seal the hoses once I'd pulled them from the back of the pump. As long as you are quick with the correct size bungs, very little water gets into the boat. I would strongly reccomend that you take good notes...

    Slack in steering helm

    Thanks for all of the replies. My mechanical knowledge is possibly not as bad as some of you think, maybe my question wasn't worded very well and I may not have made it totally clear. The slack is actually in the helm itself. The universal joint linking the steering wheel to the shaft of the...

    Slack in steering helm

    I've been a member of this board for a few months and decided it's about time I made a post rather than just digesting the wonderfully informative content. I have a question regarding the steering on my 2000 260 DA. The boat has a teleflex tilt helm unit and rack steering. There is quite a lot...
