Can someone point me to the 48 DA discussion about parts. I want to get some backup stuff before my trip. Windshield wiper length? Thanks, Bob

Congratulations, you will love it!

You are right. I've practiced removing injectors on small diesels and purging them. I screwed up but got lucky.

Finished all but generator and starboard filter changes this morning. I had to crack the seal on the primary filter to get the pump to fill it. Actually here is how it went: Turned both Racor fuel lines to off. Drained all bowels of black stuff (not much). Filters looked pretty good. Filled...

No error codes popped up. I think it is an sensor/electrical issue. Occasionally while in gear and idle, the readout says my boost pressure is around 14. The turbo isn't running at idle...can't hear it. Upon restart everything is back to normal. Bob

Thanks guys, I'll change the filters tonight if I have time Port engine No. 46622498 Star. 46622493 Cummins QSB 8.3

Hey guys, it has been a season and a half with Little Victor and we have had a wonderful time with a great boat. Sorry I haven't responded but so it goes with raising a family. The bilge full of water has never occurred again and I assume it was from something from the washer or something the...

Congratulations. I'm loving mine. I've been cruising between 2240 and 2340. The numbers look alright to me. Bob

Well, I couldn't reproduce the leak onto the carpet in the aft stateroom even when taking up to plane. I think I need to relax a little, ie ziekman. Thanks. On the brighter side I took out the family for a ride and anchored for a few hours. They loved it and now call it the fun boat. I'm happy...

Thanks guys. I'll pull tha aft tv and look at the shower connections and check the air pan. I left the water pressure on and can't reproduce the leak. It probably is a small leak that builds up and runs aft when getting on plane. I'll look again this afternoon, time permitting.

This is f- driving me nuts. Can't find out how water got in aft stateroom carpet near opening of washer. No way did the sump over flow or was there any water in front of the washer. Running washer now and nothing, trying to make it drain after running it for 15 min. got up on plane and a cup...

Understood. I wouldn't have thought about overflow into the back bilge but now I understand. Ok I absolutely have no problem with a cheap and easy for the sump. Thank you for taking the time to help. It has been hard to find time with young toddlers at home but I will update after I take a look...

Two pumps! Damn. Thank you. I guess I need to keep my Manuel with me at all times. Bob

Thanks Rich, glad you liked the boat. We had one hell of a shake down cruise. Heavy chop and at one point had a high water alarm go off in the cabin. Slowed boat to check it out while crew held course and planned an escape route. Checked bilges and salon bilge bone dry but reached down and felt...

Thanks JV II. I think you are right. I ran a dehumidifier in the aft cabin and the water went down over a few days and we had rain. I'll investigate further. Is it routine to have to have the cockpit air on to trigger the air conditioner pump? The below deck units don't trigger the pump but...

I have water under the bilge access in the aft state room. We had a lot of rain and figured it got in there somehow. No water in the salon bilge other than what is draining from the fittings on the water manifold when I loosened them or tightened them. Very little water in the engine room...

Thank you. I will take a look. Finding water in bilges and trying to trace back to source.

Wow. Thank you all. As with any, "new to you" boat I have a lot to get aquatinted to. I did send an email to Sea Ray regarding these issues hopping for some guidance. 1) Thank you for the tip about the icing spatula, I'll get one. Once I get access to the motor I will assume the motor will...

Good afternoon. I would like to introduce myself as a new owner of a 2007 48 sundancer. This will be our first power boat after moving over from sailing. I had a very exciting 3 day delivery heading into 3-6 foot seas. I was surprised how well the boat handled in seas and docking. It is...
