Hello all of you Mid TN boaters. I am struggling to find a mechanic that can work on my 9.0BTC Westerbeke. Any suggestions for a good one that will come to our marina?
Thanks - Joe
Too bad Capt Rusty is tied up this coming Monday. I will be just down the street from the plant. Would love to stop and say hi.

I have a subwoofer enclosure that I am coating in resin to waterproof. Not really sure what to paint it with after that for a final finish. Hoping the group can help steer me in the right direction.

We took off last Wednesday morning (July 27th) for a 5 day adventure docked in downtown Nashville. We started the first night with a Journey concert at the new Ascend amphitheater which is located just south of the dock. The rest of the week through Sunday we spent relaxing and having a great...
Anyone on the southeast side of Lake Michigan doing anything this weekend? I am stuck in a hotel with nothing to do and would love to hang around a marina.
I have a buddy that has bent his starboard shaft and is replacing it. The price quoted seems a bit high unless they are planing on pulling the engine. He has a 2009 330DA with the 8.1s. Any insight as to the need to pull the engine for removal?
Looks like it is time to change the duckbills on the boat. I see a couple of different sizes and would prefer to order the correct thing. Any easy way to determine which to get?
I have been having a bit of trouble with the starboard engine running rough at start up, but good with power on. Finally had the old girl pulled out today so we could take a look.
And found this when we tore into her.
I was noticing some water under my engines and figured I needed to tighten the stuffing box on my shafts. I finally got my head down to where I could take a look and to my surprise I have dripless seals. Unfortunately they are no longer dripless. I have no experience with these and looking for...
Let me start by saying yes, it was a stupid move.
I recently removed the 2 inboard wet exhaust hoses to gain better access to the bilge pumps. They were in need of replacement anyway so I cut them off. Idiot me did not measure the ID before tossing and now I have ordered too small of a...
I have been searching high and low for the wiring diagrams for my boat. Mainly the DC circuit due to a grounding problem. Anyone have a lead on where it might be found? I have searched the Sea Ray website and google all the options I can think of.
Well, here I am stuck in Japan on a business trip and the weather back home is beautiful. I have been missing the water all week and can't wait to get back home to spend some time even if it is only in the slip. :smt089
Only saving grace is one of the people on the trip is a SeaRay owner as...
Just purchased our first boat (see sig). Been having a great time out on the water with my wife.
Really glad to have found this site. The information on here is incredibly vast and I have been reading all I can for several days now.
Look forward to learning a bit more and meeting a few people.
