    Engine Overheating While Leaving Marina

    Last week, experienced the same... Same type of 'seaweed', but pickup from water. High temp, overspeed alarm (was towing) and idle speed ok... Noticed different sound, as no/less coolingwater.. Cleaned the intake just from outside, after all fine.. Just remove growth and do a test run

    270 Sundeck - junction box for smart craft gauges

    Don't expect you have junction box, as no need for single engine.. or do you have more than one SC1000 gauge ? Any pics of your present wiring behind the dash?

    Installation Mente Marine ACS RP - Sundancer 240 (2004)

    WOW! Best investment every! Did some trail runs, force 4, choppy sea.. As advised used Gain setting 1 (less nervous corrections)... All directions worked very well and not active during turn or less than plane speed. If you fed up trimming your boat all the time, this is the solution! Press...

    Installation Mente Marine ACS RP - Sundancer 240 (2004)

    Wires can also be seen behind dash cover under steering wheel. Removed two tie-raps, so length sufficient to reach position ACS. Removed plug from ACS (two small screws) and connected wires as per manual. Under dash, on right side, installed Negative (-) Connected plug to ACS...

    Installation Mente Marine ACS RP - Sundancer 240 (2004)

    To trim the boat, not an issue. But more to prevent concerned faces when sailing with guests :) ans also makes sailing more relaxed, looking for automatic solution. After some research, picked ACS RP from Mente Marine (http://www.mente-marine.com/). Liked the communication with MM and decide...

    I have same model (2004) You can find the screws a bit covered by upholstery... You can feel the difference when checking.. Top, approx 1-2 cm from top, 4 screws and my boat 3 screws bottom (2 left - 1 right)... Not sure if still have all screws :-)

    NMEA 2000 Smart Craft Integration

    Yes, you need NMEA backbone, and starterkit (Gamrin / Lowrance/ Simrad) is perfect start. All your devices are connected to the backbone, garmin and gateway (and other N2K devices) The backbone need to be terminated at both ends and need a powersupply (12v)

    NMEA 2000 Smart Craft Integration

    You need nmea / SC gateway. No need to rewire depthsensor, as data will be available. See my installation: http://www.clubsearay.com/index.php?threads/upgrade-plotter-sonar-nmea2000-smartcraft.78151/

    Raymarine Dragonfly4

    In the past I had DF5Pro, nice small unit. But if you have the budget, buy the largest screen size possible :-) Just quick note: DF4 has not chart option, only the Pro! You Navionics subscription on your iPhone isn;t the same. You need to purchase seperate for DF (or package deal)

    Smartcraft SC1000 data to display on Garmin 840xs

    Compliments of the season! You will find more info of 'similar' upgrade I did here: http://www.clubsearay.com/index.php?threads/upgrade-plotter-sonar-nmea2000-smartcraft.78151/ To be sure what you need, maybe better to open your dash and check. But based on some assumptions: - OEM SC1000 - No...
