    No Trim Guage on my instrument panel

    I have a Sea Ray 176. The engine is the inline 4 cylinder 3.0L MerCruiser sterndrive. I do not have a trim gauge that indicates if my outdrive is up, down, or in between. Is it possible my Sea Ray was sold without one? I have all the books with the parts. I looked for the trim gauge part number...

    Are their any Sea Ray junk yards out there ?

    I need a trim gauge for the dashboard of my 2003 176 SRX and some clevis pins for the tubing that supports the awning. I don't think there are any Sea Ray dealers near me anymore.

    Has anybody ever contacted Sea Ray about your boat ?

    I read that Sea Ray keeps a record of their boats. Has anybody ever done this? I will contact them and see if they can tell me the original engine number and any warranty work done on the boat and see what they can tell me.

    I haven't bought the Sea Ray Sport Yet

    The boat I'm looking at the Sport 175 with the 3.0 L is in the shop getting pre summer tune up. After the owner gets it back he'll put it in the water for me and we'll go from there. after a test drive. I am focusing on fresh water boats only and white hulls. I like the 175 because I don't want...

    Has your hull faded ?

    I'm boat shopping for a used boat. Many are garage kept and look beautiful after 10-12 years of age. I plan on keeping the boat on a lift. It was suggested that I buy a white hull and stay away from the colored hulls because they fade...with the dark blue being the worst for fading. I've seen 2...

    boat shopping - question about carpeting

    HI. I'm looking at some used Sea Ray boats like the 175 Sport and a few others. All are about 18 feet long bow rider style with the 3.0L Mercruiser Alpha One. Do the carpets come out of all of them ? It seems some have carpets that snap into place and can be removed which I would prefer. I plan...
