Hi friends. I’ve been struggling with my batt 2 charge level. 2 new interstate batteries installed in April. Boat sat in water for two weeks or so and the charge on batt 2 went way dow to where it would not start the engine. I ran her for a while and she is back up to 11.5. Batt 1 is at 12.5. I...

Hi everyone. So my 2003 240DA with 5.0MPI went in the water yesterday. She started up and idled fine. Cruised smooth through no wake. But when I opened her up she hit 2500 and would go no further. Right at 2500. Did not seem to bog. Didn’t stutter. Just would not go to higher RPM. No alarm...

Hi everyone! So my 2003 240 DA (5.0mpi +BravoIII) was supposed to be launched last week. Weather delayed that an I am glad it did. Checked the boat this weekend and went to exercise the out drive trim… and it looks like one of the hoses from the pump to the manifold blew or the manifold...

I know this has been posted but I can’t seem to find it. I just got the invoice from my marina and am scared. Over 5k for risers manifolds and elbows for my 2003 5.0 MPI. Does this seem right? See attached picture for breakdown. $450 for bolts?!? I see this same kit with 2 of everything on...

Hey guys. Getting excited for this season. I have the Bimini off my 2003 240DA and plan to give it some love. The frame is pitted or oxidized and I want to do what I can to keep the canvas looking great since it’s black sunbrella and up all the time. Main question: is the Bimini frame anodized...

Hey folks. Out last night and my 2003 240DA (5.0 MPI bravo) failed to get me home. I ran 30min to diner. Got back on. Motored out of the harbor and came up on plane. Within 5mins I was loosing RPMs. From 3200 to 3100 to 3000 came off plane. Shut the boat down restarted and tried again. Same...

Anyone have a Cockpit cover for a 2003 240DA? Getting sick of taking the isinglass off every time I take the boat out. Every manufacturer is not taking order till the fall :-/. Feel free to email direct EJBarone@gmail.com Thanks!

Hey folks. On my new to me 2003 240DA I found what I thought was an issue this weekend. Non of my accessory switches on the “peanut pad” were working (blower , lights, horn etc.). I kinda freaked out and starting looking for replacements stuff (I really like the flounder pounder kit). But...
