    Need some help deciding which boat to purchase next.

    Thank you everyone. I definitely want a hydraulic platform or a lift that I can put a jetski. Anything I should look for on a 42/44 DA?

    Need some help deciding which boat to purchase next.

    I absolutely agree with that. The one thing I didn’t like and what others have said is if you entertain it would be broken up a bit. That’s why I liked the express bridge, with access to the bow from the bridge felt a little more connected.

    Need some help deciding which boat to purchase next.

    Thank you both. Any idea how the 42/44 DA rides/performs if a wave runner is on the platform? I would be purchasing a spark due to its light weight. I’m hoping to find either boat with an extended hydraulic platform. I called a company and they told me 30k to add one . Is there another cheaper...

    Need some help deciding which boat to purchase next.

    Good evening guys! About 2 years ago I sold my 340 Sundancer as my son was born and we just never got around to using it. I am now in the market for a boat and I’d like to hear some opinions; I’m somewhat torn on either a Sundancer or Sedan bridge. I’ve looked at 2007 44 Sundancer and noticed...

    I have these props sitting in my garage and want to get rid of them. They are Nibral 3-blade 18 x 22 that came off my 2003 340 Sundancer. I am not on here much so if you would like pictures or inquire about them send me a text 954-599-4427. They are boxed and ready to be shipped or picked up.

    Oil cooler failure, will it ruin engine?

    Took the boat out on Saturday to test everything. She ran perfect, Oil and Water temp was normal and ran smooth as can be. I will send an oil analysis myself to see what it comes back as. I am assuming if the oil is good than there is no damage done to the motor.

    Oil cooler failure, will it ruin engine?

    That's the fun part. When buying a boat there is absolutely no way of knowing this. At least in this case the problem wasn't huge and it was repaired immediately. Someone can have a serious problem and cover it up.

    Oil cooler failure, will it ruin engine?

    The guy is passing on that boat. The surveyor told him that the salt water causes rapid wear and will shorten the engine dependability and life. Said its like sand in the oil. The water evaporates leaving crystals which wear bearings and bushings.

    Oil cooler failure, will it ruin engine?

    Had my boat sold and the surveyor found water in the starboard oil. Had the mechanic go by and it was determined the oil cooler went bad. The surveyor told the buyer that this would remove life on the engine. I've spoken to 5 different merc mechanics and they all told me that's BS. Any take on this?

    A/C Strainer basket replacement and cleaning of shells in strainer.

    Thanks guys. There is very LITTLE room down there to scrape the inside of the strainer. I've heard using diluted acid which turns the shells to powder. It's hard enough to pull the darn basket out. I've searched online and saw a few different options. The plastic one I have now does not have any...
