    Mooring set up/rigging preferences?

    Sounds like it was a good plan similar to what I have done. Dinghy’s are always welcome. Used to pull it off with my wife and two little girls. During the season the sailboats would be thick as thieves and never helpful. I spent a lot of time helping all boats when I had the Zodiac along...

    Mooring set up/rigging preferences?

    Such a beautiful spot. We used to frequent it in a 32’ Grand Banks the low walk around decks made it much easier. The bow line I would pass through from port cleat to Strbd like a bridal but would run a single line to the stern buoy. All was easier when I brought the Zodiac for the stern. You...

    34' mid 2000s cabin layout preference

    We have and love the 340 sundancer with long settee. Overall a great roomy boat. Plus V drives not out drives. Can’t go wrong and resale is very good. Good luck.

    1991 310 SD Starter question

    A simple but often overlooked is the shifter position. If off a tiny bit you won’t start. Look for something knocked off while doing your service as it is odd for that to be immediate after crawling around down there. I’ve had even good boatyards cause problems by accident. Good luck ! PS may...

    Lost My Anchor!

    5/8” or 9/16” is correct size. All chain is an option too.

    Anchor splicing in NJ/PA?

    I just re-spliced mine,rope to chain. Any Rigger or sailing shop should have someone. It is really a thing to practice a bit and not much different than an eye- splice. Buy a good Fid and practice.

    Parts catalogue / maintenance manual

    You should never use automotive electrical parts. They aren’t ignition protected. Those are mercury engines not sea ray. You can very easily find the parts from them. Try to find the engine serial numbers and year and models. Also you can have it rebuilt or exchanged if you are in a good marine...
