How much water would one normally find in the bilge? We got the boat towards the end of last summer and I don’t ever recall having this much water there. We splashed the boat in early April and ran it once over to the new marina. I wouldn’t expected the pump to turn on automatically. Appreciate...

I just recommissioned the boat for Spring and am having an issue with the water coming out of the galley faucet. When I turn the water pump on there is a small steady stream of water coming out the faucet, but will not turn on or off, nor will the stream increase if I turn the knob. The...

We have an ‘04 340 and are looking at options for new flooring as we have a golden retriever that will be spending a lot of time with us on the boat. I had been getting quotes for what I thought was the entire boat, but turns out it’s only for the helm and swim platform and both companies have...

Put our 04 340 in the water yesterday and went to turn on the fresh water pump and water started flowing out of the faucet. Went to turn it off and the hot water knob would not twist properly. Sounds and feels like something happened inside the knob as it doesn’t turn properly like the cold...

Just got a quote on MarineMat for my 340 and was wondering if it was worth an extra $500 to get 9mm thickness vs 6mm? Is there a big difference?

I’ve recently acquired a SR 340 and am looking for a new marina to keep it over the summer. We have found a place that we really like, but the only slip available is right next to the bulkhead. I am wondering if there is a reason why this slip is available? Is there anything I should be aware...

We have an ‘04 340 with a Kohler generator that we just bought and I’ve noticed lately that it seems to “burp” every now and then - is this indicative of an issue? I just replaced the plastic coupler and the impeller looked brand new so I know it’s not one of those. Want to be proactive if...

Anyone know what it is? Was leaving Hampton, Va late this morning and saw this beast of a boat.

Guys - can I ask a stupid question? I just bought a 04 340 DA. Generator was running fine and well maintained. Driving up the ICW in NC and the alarm goes off for the generator. I immediate shut it off and when we stop for the day try to turn it on to see if I can diagnose the issue. As stated...

I’m in the process of purchasing an ‘07 340DA down in Deale, MD. Completed the survey over the weekend and the manifolds/risers need to be looked at and/or replaced along with the gen freeze plug on the generator. The owner is going to pay for the repairs but cannot find a local mechanic who...

I just completed and received the surveyors write up on a 2007 Sea Ray 340DA. It was listed at $99,500 and we agreed to a $97,500 price. Seller had invoices for all repairs and service. In the spring he had the bottom painted and zincs replaced. Stereo and GPS/Radar were recently upgraded to...

Currently on a sea trial on a 2007 340 and 3 of the 4 risers are running hot around 195 degrees at cruising speed. The 4th riser on the far port side is showing 120 degrees. Any idea why 3 of the 4 risers would be running hot?

My wife and I are about to purchase a 340 and are trying to decide on a boat name. Our last name is Helms and we are debating between "The Helms" and "The Helms Man!" Thoughts?
