I just replaced mine last week, they are 1.5" with Vdrives.

I have a 2000 310. I am looking for the engine cover power set up. mine has gas shocks now and would like rto go to the power cover set up

One of the parts that blows me away is " depreciation schedule is not a document that exists" , this lady has been telling me for a month the the value of the parts is determined by the depreciation schedule that I now find out is made up in there head. What a scam. Why would you charge $2500 to...

These are quotes from my adjuster when I questioned her on what the depreciation schedule is and why non wear items were depreciated. When I read it I could not believe what I was reading. This was after the engine was found to be an late build 2009 not a 2000. The estimate sent to her had all...

If that's your boat in the picture that is a sweeet boat. what YMM is that? That looks like what I would want when I retire in 5 years.

I believe it will be. I would love a bigger boat but then i wouldn't be able to tow it if i wanted to. i want to plan a Bahama trip. from Ponce Inlet to the Bahamas would be way to long a trip. It would add 150 miles to the run and would have to follow the coast to fuel up, but if I trailer it...

as fuel prices increase the big block will be a pain on the brain.

ITS NOT A BIG BLOCK ITS A 5.7 300HP

I have dropped things at Fastenal for others. it is a good place to look into. I can get you a weight if you would like. If the motor is for you or a friend your the first that has asked so you have a few days to see what you can do. I do not want someone wanting it to sell it to make money. Its...

Yes I do. If I didn't have a trailer and own a crane shop I would be so screwed right now.

starboard engine coming out. If someone needs a long block just pay the freight and you can have it.

first picture is the new port motor ready to go in, the second is the damage to the ports motor cyl 5 and 7, the last is the prop, rudder and strut damage to the port side.

I agree with having to keep the boat for a while but if it turns out like I expect it will i see no reason to trade up for a few years. I am going to look into Chubb, i will have to call to see if they can write the insurance on everything I have. With SkiSafe they screw you everywhere they...

My slip id in Ponce Inlet Fl. and the tide current is very strong. With the changing of the current direction I think I was thinking that it would help.

Have you priced a new 30 plus foot boat lately? I like the older Sundancer line and the cost of doing what I am doing myself is not bad just a lot of work. I may have 15k into it and like Carpediem said, I will know what I have. I got a supper deal on the boat because of it being the end of the...

I have decided to put some time and money into the boat while its out. i am replacing the following and if anyone see something i missed please let me know. All items below are already bought. 1 - both motors with exhaust risers and manifolds using all OEM Mercruiser parts. 2 - all hosed and...

Things changed last night, i have decided to do all the repairs myself to keep from having to lose 25k. I have already bought two reman Mercruiser long blocks and a list of other items that need to be changed while the motors are out. I pulled the port motor out and started moving everything to...

Yes I did, I thought the same thing so I went through it line by line. I also thought it was high but I am not seeing where they are asking for to much or adding any major components that should not be there. I don't blame the insurance company for not wanting to pay for all hoses and clamps but...

I was shocked at the cost to repair the boat. I went line by line and the labor times were very fair , part pricing was fair. Mercruiser long black is $4500 plus 30 hours labor is $4000 then start adding gaskets that say Mercruiser, fluids and tax your right at 10k. Now add OEM risers and...

I would be afraid to total it. I may get a check for 5k. I get that a motor wears but I don't get how the depreciated the whole claim 14k just to start off. Rudders, props and prop shafts and not wearable parts like a motor. I had a remanufactured engine quoted not a new one. I can see a new...
