    Lost all power to boat-where are the fuses?

    2004 270 Sundeck 8.1, accidentally touched the wrong battery cables together when installing a new battery. Stone dead at ignition switch and resettable circuit breaker next to engine ECM. I hear of a fuse on the starter, which is virtually impossible to reach, and a 15 amp ignition fuse on the...

    270 Sundeck gear lube transom fitting replacement

    The plastic fitting through the transom that runs from the gear lube reservoir to the top of the Bravo 3 drive is notorious for cracking and leaking, and it is my turn. With that porky 8.1 in the way, I dreaded even looking for a way to get inside the engine compartment to remove the E clip and...

    Steering cable replacement completed.

    2004 270 Sundeck had stiff steering. It was nearly frozen when I first came in contact with it, and after disconnecting the clevis and cotter pin and greasing it, it would reluctantly turn, but it wasn't right and stiff enough to be dangerous. Looking at the cable, the length, 17 feet, was...

    Better shifter assembly available for 270 SD?

    I have the OEM throttle and shifter in an '04 270 sundeck 496 mag. I wish it had the magic DTS system, but it is too old. Are there any options to change out the shifter to something sexier, smoother, less cumbersome? A fancy pistol grip? I don't know what new products are lurking out here...

    Power steering stiff. Any way to lube it?

    2005 Sea Ray sundeck, low enough hours that it has probably sat too much. The steering is stiff. I flushed the PS pump reservoir by sucking out all fluid in the pump reservoir with my sacrificial shop vac, the one I use only for oil, brake fluid, and nasty stuff. I add new synthetic Power...

    Black, in new condition. Was a spare for a 2008 240, never on the boat, stored indoors always. Tell me what it's worth, or trade me something interesting.
