Hello all. Hope everyone in the path of Elsa is ready and prepped. They say by the end of the week when the storm gets to the north east it will be a tropical storm with 30-40MPH winds. I will add extra lines to my mooring chain, but bigger question is whether to leave the complete camper canvas...

Hello All, Boat back in for season. 2001 310, twin 350 MAG, Vdrive. Last year the port engine would only "click" occasionally when trying to start. Seems to be more often this year. Does anyone know if there are slave solenoids on these motors or is it directly to the starter solenoid. I have...

Just replaced my Raymarine original VHF, finally died! Bought a Icom M330-11. Had to make an adapter plate to get it in the original radio spot. It has these connections and wondering if anyone has tips to connect it to my Garmin Chartplotter. The Garmin is probably 8 years old and works fine...

This picture will make most of your heads explode!!! This older 37' was posted on my local Facebook marketplace page. Anyone see the potential issue?? Thought we all needed a little levity currently....

Hello all. Thought I was being pretty smart and using a Nespresso coffee maker on the boat. Generator working fine, showing 115-120volts on gauge, all 120v assecories working fine. But, the coffee maker starts out hot and than goes cold. Very frustrating. Works fine at home. Any thoughts on why...

This is more of a post for anyone having engine issues. My boat hadn't been in for 6 years. I put it in this year after doing much re-commissioning. Boat ran great initially. Once I was comfortable with it idling and cruising at low RPM, I started to wind it up. Would run fine at my comfortable...

OK, was having issues with engine stalling/sputtering when hot. Swapped ignition coils and problem followed the coil. Easy enough fix. But was out on open water and headed back to mooring to resolve. In the meantime, for some reason, this engine threw the serpentine belt and overheated. I limped...

Hello, tis the season for issues with our boats! My 01 310 with 350 Mag/vdrives has been put back in the water after being out for 5 years. Everything has been gone thru maintenance wise. Engines run flawlessly. All pressures and temps are right where they should be. And they ran perfectly when...

Hello All, trying to diagnose my no heat situation on my cruisair sxr10 m10 unit. I have read all of the solutions and the issues with the reversing valve. I think I have figured out that the coil that activates the solenoid is not activating. I do have 120 Volts to the plug when in heat mode...

Hi All, need to replace my water fill tank cap. It is on a 02 31 Sundancer. It is smaller than the fuel and waste tank. I think it is 1.5". I have searched all over and can't find the definitive one. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hello All, First off, I have searched on here but found nothing. I need to replace my Ray210 VHF and want to know what everyone has done. These things are 20 yrs old now and mine seems to have no volume at all. Just out of the blue. Can anyone help?Boat is a 2001 310. Thanks!

Anyone have any leads or suggestions on where to find a used Ray210VHF? Or is there an upgrade to fit in the existing opening? Thanks

Hello all, I have a cruiseair sxr10-m10 on my 2001 310. I have recently read on here somewhere that it is a good idea to activate the heat portion so that the "reverse flow"(?) valve gets exercised. So, today I go out to do this and I am not getting heat. Can someone please let me know where...

Just thought I would throw this out there to help someone else possibly. Most times when I had to start my AC for the first time I would always have to go and remove the discharge hose, get sprayed with water once it primed and than hope it didn't happen anymore. I am working on my boat on the...

I am sure this has been discussed but couldn't find anything specific in the search function. I am considering doing this on my boat. I see you can purchase the raw materials inexpensively but if I do it I want it to have a border. Anyone have suggestions on this? Thanks

Hello All, will post this in electrical section as well. I have a pronautic 1240 3 bank charger. I also have the remote display. I was working on the charger recently and the cable for the remote pulled apart from the connector into the charger(see all pics). I called Pronautic and they don't...

In my quest to get my 310 back up and running for next year I am about to move from mechanicals to cosmetics in prep for 2020 summer splash. Boat has been out for 4 years and spent most of today bleaching/pressure washing the forward deck and hull. Has cleaned up amazingly. But....it will...

OK, I have my "flame suit on", but am curious to know your opinions on a battery question. I picked these batteries up from an FAA site that I worked on. They have a label on them "installed 1/11/2010". I had 8 of them and brought back to shop to see if they would take a charge. 4 have and...

I have been resurrecting my 01 310. Realized I need a new alternator pulley due to rust. I went online, entered my engine serial number and found a mercruiser part number. Found an online seller who confirmed they had the right part.I received it and it was wrong. Contacted them, sent pictures...

Hello All, recommissioning my 01 310 with 350 Horizon/Vdrives, after 4 years of inactivity. Have motors started, but struggling with keeping the serpentine on both motors! The pulleys did have rust and I have tried to clean them as much as possible while attached to motor. All turning parts are...
