Removed my after coolers and had them sent to the local shop for pressure testing and cleaning. Mechanic advised that they did not look very healthy, with some water corrosion detected. Advised to source some new ones just in case they were shot. Can anyone point me to a reliable source for some...

I own a 2001 400SD with 3126 Cats that are due for their 1000 hour service which my understanding includes a major valve adjustment. The only local Catapillar service centre recently bumped their hourly rates to $220/hr and their quote for the service was for 12 hours and close to $3,000 inc...

I have heard the term Cored Hull in a few threads now and am wondering if someone would be willing to explain what that means? Is it a bad thing or does it just mean more prudent maintenance? And would my 2001 400 Sedan Bridge likely have one or not? That last question might be better directed...

We have been cruising the San Juan's, Gulf island's, Sunshine Coast and most parts of Desolation Sound for 7-8 years. Each year we try to creep a little further North and explore new areas. To date the furthest north we have explored is Dent Rapids, Hole in the Wall and Octopus Islands. Our home...

I've seen a few threads where these have been replaced. Mine is workin fine but I'd like to replace the LED PANEL as I have a few burnt out. Anyone have a defunct unit with a good LED panel display they'd like to part with? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm in my second season with my first "big boat", a 400 Sedan with a westerbeke 8kw gen. As this is my first boat with a generator, I'm still a newbie when it comes to it so forgive me if this is a silly question...Can I run the genny while underway to help quickly charge up my battery bank...

I have two SHURFLO 3.3 GPM water pumps in my 2001 400 Sedan. I noticed yesterday that my #2 designated pump fails to kick on, and my #1 pump seems to be doing all the work. Both pumps feed independently from the fresh water tank but then tie in together for the accumulator, etc. I turned pump 1...

I have a 2001 400 Sedan. I noticed today that I am missing the filter/screen out of one of my inline water filters. there are two lines coming from my freshwater tank to two separate water pumps. Just before each pump is a round water filter with a see through cap. Inside is a washable mesh...

Can anyone tell me the boatzinc.com equivalent part number for the zinc in my Westerbeke 8.0? I tried to search the forums with no luck. Westerbeke's part number is 011885 but they are very 'vague' in giving any description or size in the manual or on their website. Thank you.

Anybody have some fuel burn/curve numbers for the CAT 3126 350 HP's for my 2001 400 Sedan Bridge? Just thought if someone had them handy, or knew where to find them, it could save me an hour on Google. I realize commissioning, weight, etc., will all have an effect but it would be nice to have a...

Well I'm in the process of switching over to LED bulbs for my overhead salon and galley lights on my 2001 400 DB. Due to the age of the boat and the brittleness of the light fixture from years of being over heated by those MEGA-HOT halogen bulbs, I keep breaking the small tabs that hold the...

Hello Searay-ers! My 2001 400 Sedan Bridge does not seem to have an outlet for the built in vacuum on the bridge. Am I missing something? Is it hidden? Sure would be nice to have one up there…Anyone plumbed one in?:huh:

My wife is attempting to remove the Salon curtains in our new to us 400 Sedan Bridge (2001) for a much needed cleaning. She can't figure out how to remove them and I am not at the boat with her. Anybody have some quick insight?

I just found out that my shower & drain sump box on my new to me, 2001 400 Sedan Bridge is overflowing. At closer inspection it looks like either the float switch or bilge pump in the box are dead (or maybe both). Anyone know if these are connected to a breaker/fuse on some panel somewhere? Thanks!

I'm looking at purchasing a 2000-2002 400 Sedan Bridge and I was hoping to get a history of sale prices for this model over the last year. I need some help from someone who has access to the boatsold.com website. I've been all over Yachtworld, Boat Trader and Craigslist for the last 24 months so...

Just made an offer on a 2001 400DB and am now looking for a good CAT mechanic to do our mechanical inspection in Vancouver, BC. Engines are the 3126TAs 340hp. Thank you!

After selling our 280 Sundancer after 6 years (our first boat) we are now getting serious about purchasing a '00-'02 400 Sedan Bridge, Sea Ray of course! Living in the Pacific Northwest, we don't have many local options available to us and none with the preferred 450hp Cummins. Our wish list...
