    Insurance Broker

    Can anyone give a recommendation on an Insurance Broker in the area? I currently have Geico/BoatUS but I think there has to be other companies who can do better. I am hoping a broker could help me "shop around". My 380DA is in the water year round behind my house in Palm Coast. Thx!

    Hurricane

    Good luck to all as Ian approaches....Extra lines, fenders, full tanks, charge all your portable radios etc etc The ONLY nice thing about having a boat in the water during/after a Hurricane is that you can crank the genset and live aboard if your house power is out for some time. Stay...

    System Monitor Interface/DDU and plug

    From my 2000 380DA with 7.4's Was fully functional when I removed it last month but as you can see the DDU is damaged at the reset button and the display is very hazed and hard to read. The interface functions as designed with "All Systems Normal" displayed until alarm beeps with engine...

    Maxwell Stainless Steel windlass switches

    I got tired of the cheap white plastic windlass deck switches and upgraded to the Maxwell covered stainless steel ones. Very heavy duty and makes the foredeck look better. Simple remove and replace installation.

    In the process of updating the original SR Systems Monitor to a simple LED light with alarm. I see my Hurth V-Drives have a transmission overheat sensor on them but I am not sure if it triggers an alarm thru the system monitor? I think it is "Normally Open" and I tried closing the circuit to...

    New .316 lower lifelines SR380DA

    Was tired of looking at the rust stained white PVC jacketed lower lifelines so I decided to upgrade. Took down old lifelines and measured pin to pin overall length. Realizing the aft turnbuckles were redundant I took them out of my measurement for the new ones. I made new ones out of .316 1x19...

    As part of my (possible) removal of Hurth V-Drive to replace the rattling Drive Plate while in the water, I decided to build a Heavy Duty prop puller to keep on the boat. I just completed my DIY Hookah system so I jumped in the water to check dimensions for a prop puller. There is ample room...
