So after owning and operating this new to me SR for this first season I noticed today that both of my orange lights that show my polarity is good are not lighting up.
when I flip to the generator the one orange polarity light that is not on with shore power flickers dimly.
What could this mean...
Got up this morning after a great weekend of boating and found what looks to be my fresh water running out of my shore water inlet bib, I never use shore water and haven’t done much with this system, any help would be appreciated.
I am thinking of installing two large AGM batteries for the house bank in the forward compartment behind the flip-up mirror in front of the V Berth (anchor access) ..... has anyone tried this or see any reason this is a poor idea? The batteries will add approx 250lbs to the tip of the bow.

Just found my shore power female recept is cracked. I was hoping to replace it with a metal version, in fact I would just replace all (3) shore connections on the boat.
Does anyone have any recommendations on replacement parts.
This past weekend was my first out on the boat where we anchored up and sat out and all day. We were anchored up for 7-8 hours, I had the genset running the entire period as we had the ACs running along with the cabin lights/ power and the new stereo system.
To start the starboard motor I...
I am looking to add a Garmin Auto Pilot System to my boat now that the 8616 & phantom 54 is installed. I spoke with Garmin today and they require details about the current setup so I can order the correct components, I then spoke with SeaRay later today and they indicated the boat did not come...
Has anyone found a more modern solution to the OEM helm breaker buttons I just learned how to use this weekend...lol...
I feel like I may push them through the panel at some point.
I have been reading posts about the height of the radar arches on the DAs and how taller folks should look to specific years due to the clear height at the helm, many have stated that if you are over 6' you would have to be on bended knee to stand at the helm.
I am pushing 6'4" and have zero...
Not sure if this is needed by anyone but the good folks at Sea Ray sent this over to me today.

anyone running shadow caster SCR24s? I am trying to decide how many to install across the aft beam?
I have seen boats where you can easily see the light source while other boats just have more of a glow or haze and you can’t really tell how many or where the light source is located.... I like...
FYI, not sure if this known or not but I just got off the phone with Bennett Marine and was informed Tom (Tabman) from Bennett Marine has just recently passed away.
Just purchased a 92' DA 370, while I have been on boats my entire life and owned a few fishing/hunting boats this is my first twin-engine cruiser and I am unfamiliar with many of the boat systems and have been trying to read and educate myself on them. As we have a new boat we are now planning...
