I'm selling my boat. A beautifully maintained 440 Sundancer. This is the one with the 420 Diamond series Cummins motors. You can see more details and pictures on http://www.yachtworld.com/boats/1994/Sea-Ray-Sundancer-440-2829793/Isleton/CA/United-States
Trust me, this is a great boat!! I...
Ok, the dual trumpet air horns were functioning perfectly last week. One week later I go to sound my horn as I'm entering the fairway leaving my Marina and all I hear is a "ehhhhhhhhhh"! Actually the sound was more of a very rapid vibration with a slight swoosh noise from inside the cockpit...
My searchlight on the very end of my bow pulpit has stopped working. I've read a number of threads on here with many good options in terms of repair/replacement. However, my question is how do I get this sucker off of the bow to work on it? It would seem that the best access is through the...
Just thought I'd pass on my best wishes for a great Thanksgiving day to everyone here on the West Coast regional forum! I actually want to wish everybody on the CSR forum best wishes. I've been a member now for exactly one year and I have gained so much knowledge and great advice from members...
This is for any of my west coast brethren that have cruised the SF Bay during fleet week. I plan on cruising to the bay next weekend and hopefully get a chance to see the Blue Angels show from the water. I was wondering if any of you have any advice as to best positioning or other helpful...
Just thought I'd reach out and ask if anybody in the Sacramento/Delta area knows of a AC mechanic that specializes in marine applications? My forward V-berth AC unit has apparently given up. I am hoping it is something easy to fix.
FYI... It is a Marine Air Systems 10K BTU reverse cycle...
Well I took my boat to the yard for some prop work and a general going over (take a look at stuff and if it's obvious let's discuss options). The mechanic finds an oil leak on the port cylinder head to block mating surface and declares that the gasket needs to be changed. Estimate including...
Just seeking some probable causes. We were cruising along running 2250 rpm when there was this large bang/pop and sudden loss of power in the port engine along with copious amounts of black smoke from the exhaust. When I throttled back all returned to normal. No unusual gauge readings...
I posted this in the Sport Yacht forum, then thought that perhaps this is the better place for it... Thanks in advance for any help!
1994 440 Sundancer
All right, I know I must me missing something. The alarm on the dash turns red and indicates that the fwd engine room bilge pump is activated...
1994 440 Sundancer
All right, I know I must me missing something. The alarm on the dash turns red and indicates that the fwd engine room bilge pump is activated. It does not go out. I go to investigate and sure enough there is a lot of water in that bilge (another issue). However, the pump...
So I seem to have a leak in the fresh water system. Whenever the system is activated (pressured up) my forward bilge fills with water. This is the bilge under the aft berth sofa. I can see the water running into the bilge, but can't find the source. It is coming from the port side. When I...
So I took my boat to the boat yard for a bottom job, new seacocks, anodes, installation of a new stereo and a nice wash and wax job. Next thing I know, the boat yard is calling me to tell me the starboard engine will start, but not stay running. Now I just finished a 500nm trip from San Diego...
Alright, I'm not sure if this is the right forum or not, but here goes. I've purchased the new Fusion MS-IP700i stereo, Fusion 5 channel amp and wired remote. The question I have is how do I run the cable from the starboard radar arch to the dash area just adjacant to the companioway below...
Friday I start an adventure! I've just closed escrow on a 1994 Sea Ray 440 Sundancer. The boat is in perfect shape and ready to cruise north. I've hired a captain to tag along (well more then tag along... provide instruction, etc.) as this is my first foray into the big blue waters! Plus it...
So I just purchased a 1994 440DA. Completed a power plant survey, hull survey and sea trial. All systems worked flawlessly and no issues of any merit were found! The one problem though was that no one on the boat could find the water heater. The owner, the surveyor, the broker, myself...
