    Service fire suppression system

    I have a 2000 310da with 5.7 v-drives and was wondering if anyone has had their automatic engine compartment fire suppression system serviced? I bought the boat a few years ago and other then the green light on the dash, have no idea what condition it is in. Thanks.

    Anchor windless trouble

    As I was commissioning my 2000 310 for the season, checking to make sure everything was ready to go, I discovered that my anchor windless does not power down. It was fully functional at the end of last season. It powers up from both dash and foot control. When I push down on the dash control, I...

    Replacing AM/FM antenna

    I purchased a new AMFM antenna to replaced old cracked one on my 2000 310 DA. Antenna I bought came with a typical single pin plug at the end of the cord. When I went to take off the old one, I found it connected via a single cable attached with a terminal end lead held in with a bolt. Any...

    Engine blowers no longer work

    I have a 2000 310DA. I have a bit of a mystery. All season long my engine blowers operated normally. A few weeks ago, after a day cruise that included some rain and 4 footers, the blowers stopped working. I have checked the breakers on the main panel and they are in. I opened up the switch...

    Starboard tach reading higher then port

    I have a 2000 310DA with twin 5.7 v-drives 375 hours on both. Recently my starboard tach is reading 800-1000 revs higher then port at all RPM speeds. I believe the reading is false because the synch gauge shows them synched, the boat tracks true with the rudders amidships and the port and...

    No hot water

    Hello all, today I moved my boat from its winter home to its summer mooring about 4 hrs away. When I arrived at the mooring and went wash up, I realized that I had no hot water. The water pressure from the hot and cold tap was similar and fine, although the water pump seems to run a lot. This...

    I am replacing the tv/VHS combo on my 310 da and would like to know if The plug in the compartment where it sits is 12v only? I run of battery most of time with no generator. I do not want to wire in a 12 v unit and destroy it if I plug into shore power. Thanks.

    Securing overboard waste discharge

    I have a 2000 310DA with a macerator and overboard discharge. I understand that I need to secure the system to avoid accidental discharge. I have seen newer boats with a key lock to secure it but my boat does not have that feature. What do others here do to secure their discharge system? Thanks.

    Carrying auxiliary gas for tender

    I have a 2000 310 DA with an 8' inflatable tender and a 3.5 hp ob with an internal tank. How do folks here carry gas for their tender? I do not like the idea of carrying a gas can on the boat. I was thinking about a siphon pump to draw fuel from the main tank as needed. Thanks.
