Hi guys… I still have The two original fresh water pumps on my boat. I noticed that number one runs all the time now, and number two doesn’t run. I was going to swap them out but I’m just wondering if we really need two of them on the boat. If any of you have swapped these and went down to one...

Thanks Bill! When you did the panel, did you buy from FP MArine, Techographic, or elsewhere? I was pricing new panels the other day for electroncis upgrade too. I wasn't going to replace this side one, but now might as well.

Have any of you ever replaced the back lighting strips on the panel that is to the right side of the helm seat. On mine, I assumed it was bulb(s) that were out. I pulled it out yesterday and, of course, it wasn't the easy/simple fix I was imagining. Across each the top of each row, my boat...

I too am looking forward to pics and info on the new electronics. Over the past two winters, we tackled some of the big items with the tyical, little ones. we did new canvas, new cockpit flooring, and last year was re-doing all the cockpit seating. The only thing left is to redo the...

Bill, I will be at the Chicago show - but only on Thursday. Its the best show wee have around here, so its worth the drive for us. Even Milwaukee is a dud compared to what you see at the Chicago show. Three of us guys will be there, spending Wednesday night there, show Thursday, then home. I...

Question for you all regarding the catch/sump basin under the salon floor. Even though I clean it out, we seem to always get that smell that backs up through the sink in the galley. Our has a poor design, they have the pump and the switch on two different levels, so no matter what, its never...

It Looks great! What's next? You cant stop now, you can squeeze in one more little project before launch

Does anybody remember this topic back in December, these new cup holders are fitted and deeper to hold the big Yeti and others as well. Pretty cool for me, as My big Stainless cups fall over in those little rings on the boat, not a good fit either for kids. I bought a bunch to replace the...

We bought our 460 with CATS, 985 hours on them. All comes down to the maintenance records. I wouldn't be afraid of those hours one bit. I would be more afraid of a boat that age with less hours on it, as then you are looking for problems of failure from lack of use, which will cost you way...

I won't drill a hole, I just find it a good idea when I'm laying there cleaning out the sump container :mad:

While I like the look of a clean hull without any thru hull fittings, I must say this is a good idea. I don't know about you guys, but our catch basin is a little deeper on the one end. It always has water in there, even though it isn't that much. If you leave the boat and come back after a...

Seeking advice from any of you on the Vacuflush/Holding tank on my boat. On my '99 the main/forward head runs to its own tank in front of the port engine. This past weekend I changed my vent filters as I thought their was more of a smell that shouldn't be there. This one was wet whereas the...

We brought ours back home yesterday as well. Always a good thing to see her at the dock where she belongs. Ice took forever to melt off of Green Bay this spring. As I told my best boating buddy last night who just moved up to a sweet 420 Sundancer this year, only 18 more Saturdays before they...

Promariner-Pronautic-1250p-50-Amp is the one I just installed over the winter. I also put in another Pronautic charger to replace my original bow thruster charger. So, I hope these new chargers last the 18yrs my originals did.

I too bought and put the stainless foot covers on the bow for the winch. Only $65 each! You can call/email MMI Marine/Magna Marine in California. Kevin Ruiz was great. When searching, some people only list and try to make you buy the entire switch to get the covers, which drives up the price...

Does anyone have any experience with replacing the cutlass bearing in the strut? We have done a bunch of other upgrades and preventative things on this years winter list. I brought my props back from being redone and they said they'd recommend changing the bearings now too. It makes sense as...

I would also be too nervous to pressure wash the entire engine compartment. I use a 50/50 mix of bleach and water on the hard stuff, keeping the bleach away from any fittings, etc. or anything it would cause more harm than good by using it. Otherwise degreaser and water works wonders. Just...

Hello...you need to dress this profile up a bit my friend. Its worse than your Facebook page.

looks awesome...

We also are extremely pleased with our Corinthian carpet/matting. We chose the AquaLoc thicker rubber backing. So we have no snaps or even Velcro in place to hold it. One thing we hated about the larger piece for the main portion of the cockpit was it was too many pieces. We had the standard...
