    Oh ok, I see it. The owner is out of town, but said his brother can do a virtual tour, so I'll try schedule that ASAP. I just walked away from a Formula based on the engine survey results, so I'm probably a little extra cautious right now...but I agree - in all my searching very very few 380's...

    Thanks for the advice. I agree - in all my searching I haven't seen many at all with diesels. That's why I'm also looking at the Formulas.

    Upgrading from our 01 290 Sundancer, and considering an 04 380 Sundancer - about 800 hours on Cat 3126 diesels, spent first 12 years in fresh water, had 500 hour service, and some various upgrades. Boat's in Florida, and I'm on Long Island, so planning a virtual tour soon. Obviously, I'd have to...

    Oh that’s great to know, if I get that far, thanks! This boat is on the Occoquan River. Is that nearby?

    Understood, good point. I had insurance lined up for the Formula 40PC that I just walked away from due to the issues discovered by the engine survey. But they were concerned, since I was coming from a 29’, so I’ll check again since this ones 42

    Great, thanks! I’m new to diesels and just started researching this boat. I think it’s always been in freshwater but I’ll ask.

    Upgrading from our 01 290 Sundancer, and considering an 03 420 Sundancer - per the broker it’s a freshwater boat, twin Cummins 6CTA diesels, current owner has his and previous owner’s service records, on a full maintenance schedule, including washes, waxing, bottom cleaning, and engine room...

    We love the marina, and the location is perfect, but the service dept has been a huge disappointment. They did say it was the internal pressure switch that failed. Anytime I use them for service it’s a headache. Going forward, I’ll try to do everything I can without them.

    The marina replaced the pump. I wish I would’ve gotten to it first and saved about $500.00…the one time they beat me to something, LOL

    This is the supply side. It looks like one fitting might be part of the hose. The other fitting spins freely inside the pump housing. Looks like maybe it clips in somehow?

    Tank is full, I ran the pump briefly and checked faucets, and engine compartment. I’ll run it again and look around the locker also. Thanks Jeff.

    Ok thanks. I’ll disconnect the supply side hose tomorrow, and check out those fittings. Thanks for the advice!

    Ok thanks for the clarification on the pump being on or not, with dockside water. I guess it’s just coincidence that this happened that day. That’s the clear filter that I think the previous owner did away with. I thought I heard it sucking air on the inlet side. One fitting that was in the...

    I'm pretty sure this has been discussed, but I searched and couldn't find it. When I turn my fresh water pump on, it runs continuously, and doesn't pump any water. I don't see an inline filter, so I think the previous owner may have removed it. It's hard to tell with the pump noise, but it...
