    Sundeck 260 (2014) switch broke, can't take off darn panel

    I unscrewed all the rings to the toggle switches, went to the storage compartment, took off panel behind steering wheel and I can see 4 impossible to reach screws. So if those come off w/ some ridiculous contortion using a deep well socket, is there some other impediment like caulk or a ninja...

    This is so stupid but... I can't get the bow ladder tucked in.

    I've flipped it both ways, made sure it's completely telescoped compressed, but I can't close the hatch over the damn ladder. What am I doing wrong? I tried a little too hard to close and chipped fiberglass off the damn hatch too. ARghghhghgh. Thanks! Scott Boat is a sea ray Sun Deck 260 (2014)

    Why does the lord curse me?

    Engine died. 2014 260 sun deck. First time, I jumped off the front, grabbed the ladder and swam it 500 feet to Marine Max where I bought it, left it there overnight, next day they said gear lube is low.

    wood deck?

    Got the carpet, snap-off, on a 260 sundeck. Did anyone take off the carpet and add wood instead? I've seen some Chris Craft boats and I love the wood shingle look.

    How do you fish on your sun deck?

    I have a 260 sundeck. It has cup holders so I'm thinking maybe there's an adapter I could put in to hold the rod in place. Any ideas so I'm not having to constantly hold the rod?

    bilge pump, drain plug on 260 sundeck

    So had a 'ride along' with a captain to explain the boat to me. He said not to worry about taking the drain plug (they dry dock the boat when you're done). But he also said not to worry with a boat lift either. And not to worry about the bilge pump unless there's a lot of water collecting by the...

'Red right returning' means that if I'm coming from the gulf of mexico to smaller body of water, red is...

    What activity do you enjoy doing most on your sundeck?

    I'd like to fish while the boat's moving, water ski, scuba dive, not sure how practical any of this is.
