    2006 290 Sundancer Stereo Function in Cockpit

    Thanks, the seller of my boat picked it up in Annapolis so it was worth a shot. You're right, the '06 290DA is a great boat. Back on thread, the seller replaced the original head unit with a cheap Pioneer car stereo. It works but I'm considering replacing with a Fusion unit. The original...

    2006 290 Sundancer Stereo Function in Cockpit

    Hi, this is off thread. But did you sell a burgundy 290DA to a buyer in Connecticut? I bought one last year locally and it originally came from Maryland. If so, that would be a coincidence!

    Has anyone used sundancercanvas.com?

    Thanks everybody for your input. I spoke with Kevin and placed the order with Cove Marine a couple days ago. Look forward to working with you Kevin.

    Has anyone used sundancercanvas.com?

    They're quoting lead times of 4-7 weeks from order placement and Great Lakes still isn't producing outside orders yet. So, I'm not sure if they're a reseller and am looking into the options. We want to get this done before the start of next season.

    Has anyone used sundancercanvas.com?

    Hi, I see that sundancercanvas.com is now accepting orders. I received a quote from them and am interested in learning more about the company. But there's not a lot of information available on the net. If you've worked with them, please let me know how it worked out. Thanks, Jim

    Koehler 5ECD won’t start

    Hi, Our Koehler 5ECD won’t turn over. When I try starting it the pump turns on and starter clicks once. Then it throws an error code, usually OS or UU. Here’s a quick video of the sequence. https://share.icloud.com/photos/0ZB-mpGxQYF0nuDzTiio7Oh6A#Branford Anyone have an idea of what might...

    Registering a documented boat in CT

    Yep, thanks for that Smokeio. I also have the RI registration with the transfer form completed and signed. Got an appointment at the Old Saybrook DMV tomorrow, at least they don't make you wait in line for hours any longer.

    Registering a documented boat in CT

    I've recently purchased a 2006 Sundancer 290 and will be registering it in Connecticut. The boat is CG documented, is currently registered in Rhode Island and the seller had a lien on it. I recently received the lien satisfaction documentation from his bank. As best I can tell, the first step...

    Guest 22040A Spotlight Rehab

    Turns out that the spotlight motors are shot... it works for now, but just facing forward. So it's back to the drawing board. Since the wiring bus is already in place my first thought is to buy another 22040A and drop it in place. But does anyone know of a more recent spotlight, particularly...

    Official 290 Sundancer Thread

    The seats look fantastic. My 290 needs all new cockpit Vinyls too. Did you have this done locally?

    Guest 22040A Spotlight Rehab

    You’re right, the specs for these bulbs are not readily available. I can buy several Wagner bulbs at the same cost of one OEM so even with the shorter rated life I’m still ahead. But when this one goes I’ll buy the LED and likely never replace it again. Even at the higher price, it still costs...

    Guest 22040A Spotlight Rehab

    Ditto, you have good taste in Sundancers! The guy I bought the boat from here in Connecticut purchased it from the original owner in Maryland. We've got the same configuration including the 5ECD, but mine needs engine work. That'll happen over the winter.

    Guest 22040A Spotlight Rehab

    Sorry I didn't see your post earlier. Was looking for an LED to drop in but couldn't find one. I did find this bulb on Amazon, which is much cheaper than the official replacement. It fits and works perfectly AmazonSmile: Wagner Lighting 4700 Sealed Beam - Box of 1: Automotive. Several of the...

    Guest 22040A Spotlight Rehab

    Hi, I recently purchased a 2006 Sundancer 290DA and am working through some smaller projects. The boat came with a Guest 22040A spotlight that is in good working order after replacing the bulb. When replacing the bulb I noticed the gasket and boot were shot and ordered both parts. The...
