A new radio in our 220SD has me with some leftovers. I bought the MW1 remote for 120 thinking it would be easy to cut a bigger hole in the helm, but it did not fit, so it is new in box and never been used. I am offering it at 95 just to get rid of it, as I missed the return window by 3 days...

Quick update that hopefully helps others in the future. Engine has been pulled and in addition to the fuel pump, we have replaced the oil pan (it had a pretty soft spot in it!) and we are also replacing the power steering cooler (PS had some water in it). I am basically having the tech go...

Thank you! I have been reading about it and am considering an additional mod based on all of my learning.

Thanks Northern! Merc part is on order.

Very nice! We are new to the Sun Deck also and our '03 220 SD is very fun for all activities we wish to enjoy on the ICW south of Sarasota. Cheers!

Thank you to all for the great insight! This forum is truly great in so many ways. I did confirm it is the old style and is tucked away underneath Port side. I am going to go ahead and get her pulled, as I want to see what else might need addressing. The boat is in really great shape and I...

I have read numerous posts and so finally will pose my question(s): After what appeared to be a vapor lock on my Merc 5.0 MPI ('03 Sea Ray SD 220), my mechanic has recommended a new fuel pump -- after sea trial , fuel pressure not as good as when cold and pump sounded like it was "struggling"...

Thank you Jeepguy.

Anyone with a 220SD know the best length transom tie down straps to use? 2 or 4 footers? '03 Boat will be on an ACE bunk trailer (if that matters). I don't have my trailer yet (on order) and want to get my straps ahead of time. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for your insight! We are now part of the Sea Ray family with a 220SD. Can't wait to enjoy the salt life! Now we need to find the best beach, sand bar and fish platters to try. Cheers to all!

Hello from long time lurker now on the market for a family boat to be used on greater Sarasota intracoastal waters. Can't wait! SR 220SD is perfect for us, but the I/O is a little scary. We are used to freshwater outboard. I have read sooooo many CSR and other source input about saltwater...
