    Selling my 1999 400 SDA /CATs, and buying a 47DB. Now I need indoor storage for some winter detailing. Any ideas anyone? Thanks, Tom

    Thanks so much for your reply. I've seen a lot of crazy claims, and yours is right about what I thought the boat should do. Going on my sea trial in Lake Michigan and will let you know how it goes. Boats ride a bit deeper in Fresh water...so I'm curious to see if that makes a small difference...

    looking at buying a 47DB this week as an upgrade from my 40SDA with 3116 CATs, 350 hp each. Can anyone comment on 47DB cruise speed, @ what RPM, fuel consumption, etc. I'm finding numbers all over the map. I'm spoiled by moving around at 23-25 mph at <20 GPH in my SDA, and anticipate doubling...

    Two batteries, $275; New Charger $400, maybe it's the isolator

    This is a vert good thought, and it also fits well with the symptoms. The schematic does no show fuses, but some may have been added. I'll do a continuity check of each battery cable to see if that's a possibility. Today I ordered a ProMariner isolator for twin engine setup. The new ProMariner...

    Two batteries, $275; New Charger $400, maybe it's the isolator

    It was getting late, so I didn't spend much time with my VOM. ProMariner suggest fuses between Charger and Batteries, but I don't see fuses in the schematic provided by Sea Ray. Today, I thought I would take some measurements at the charger lugs. ProNautica looks to be very sophisticated, but...

    Two batteries, $275; New Charger $400, maybe it's the isolator

    I'm almost at the point of Breaking Out Another Thousand. The two starboard batteries were dead and not taking a charge so I bought two new batteries: Cost $275. Then I read that I might have killed the batteries (I'll spare you the details) so I bought a new state-of-the art ProNautic 63140...
