Update...found out why I couldn't find the delay relay in the engine compartment. Sea Ray decided it was better suited up behind the helm LoL Turns out the adjustable delay timer was the problem, got it fixed and everything is working properly now. So hopefully this will help someone out in the...

Hey guys, got a question that someone here may have already run into. Boat is a 2015 250 SLX with the hydraulic swim platform option. The sequence of operation is to turn on the Accy switch at the helm, with the ignition switch off, and then operate the platform DOWN rocker switch that's at the...

Quick question for you 310 guys... We sold our 2006 290 DA earlier this year...looking to get back into a cruiser soon. We are looking at the 310 as an upgrade to the 290. One of the things I didn't like about the 290 was the forward berth...is the 310 forward berth any better? The 290 berth...

I measured the screen and I was wrong, it’s the 6.4” version. Not sure if you’re still interested.

Not sure what version it is, but I’m pretty sure it’s the 8.4” version. I can double check when I get back in town Thursday.

So when you say half the time....that was a 30 minute video. You’re saying it takes you 15 minutes to launch your boat on average??? How long does it take you retrieve the boat then?

Can’t have too much data man LoL Makes diagnosing a problem so much easier!

Sounds like you’re good to go

Aw man, you want all the answers that I couldn't find LoL My trailer is almost 33'. I want to say 32'8" sticks out in my mind...but it's been a hot minute since I measured it. The height measurement comes in around 12'4" to the top of the finsih of the fiberglass arch. I didn't have to remove...

Did you happen to notice the amp reading for the charger as this was happening? If it happens again watch the charger and see what it tries to do. When you turned the battery switch on for the port side battery bank, are you turning it 1, 2 or Both? If you turned it to Both and saw a quick...

Your assumption on the battery charger amps is correct, if it's charging at a higher amp reading then the batteries are either low or there is a large draw on the 12V system. Since my boat is a trailer boat, my charger will read high for a couple hours while it tops the batteries off. But once...

Best bet is to turn off all breakers and battery switches. Measure voltage, turn on port battery switch and measure voltage. If you have a drop with all the breakers off then you have a short somewhere. If the voltage doesn’t drop then start turning breakers on one at a time until you get your...

Yes it’s a custom VATB-12625. The trailer is shorter then a normal 12625. The 2006-2008 290 is heavy for its length. So Venture shortened up a 12625 to keep it from being 37’ long on a 31’ boat. Which is nice! I really wasn’t wanting all the extra length that wasn’t needed. So when I picked the...

Thanks! Yeah it wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. Short fish tape really comes in handy LoL

Yes I did...post #1231 I explained how I did it. And thanks! Really happy with the way it turned out.

Well what started out as a simple radio upgrade....quickly escalated into a whole new electrical distribution panel Had my buddy laser cut me a new panel with some custom work. Turned out great and the new Fusion radio is awesome. Plus it is networked into my Axioms so full control from the...

Well the only way I found to run a network cable from the helm to the electrical distribution panel. Was to go towards the stern on the starboard side...into the engine room and over to port above the generator. Then forward toward the bow through the bulkhead were all the other wires pass...

What a crock of crap....if that were the case we’d never be able to repair a leak on any refrigeration system. They just want to sell you a new system. I’d keep looking for a A/C mechanic...doesn’t have to be a boat A/C guy either. Ask your friends if they have a A/C guy in their back pocket...

Wore a hole in the copper? Or the compressor? Why not repair it? Copper is easily soldered...and even a steel compressor housing can be repaired with 45% silver solder. We do it in the field all the time in the HVAC/Refrigeration world. After repair pull a vacuum and recharge. Any good HVAC...

Looks good! Surprised the hole didn’t imprint on the vinyl. That won’t work for me due to the location of hole and I can’t just wrap that area without it looking goofy.
