    Official 290 Sundancer Thread

    I have just realized this weekend that I'm missing my wrench/crank to manually use my windlass, never had one when I purchased the boat. Does anyone know where I could get one? Also as grill mounts go I've been enjoying my pedestal mount that I mounted on my extended swim platform. I think I...

    The platform cost $ 2474.00 from swimplatforms.com shipped to SC from Pheonix AZ. I also had to also buy another ladder bracket for $ 135.00 from GG Schmitt and sons because there was no way to get to the nuts to remove the old bracket and I didn't want to have to patch any holes. I probably...

    Sounds like you have the accessory bug as bad as I do. I have already been looking at dingys(7' or 8' ??? ) but can't decide on a davit. Need something that can be removed easily as I wouldn't need it all the time.

    The rods are attached to the boat by 1.25" lag screws and at the platform a pan head screw and a bolt all the way through recessed in the top of the platform. Its surrprisingly sturdy. 350 tows fine plenty of power but wish I had DRW.

    red or blue accent lighting?

    I just installed a pair of Aperion SDI Tri-light ( white, blue, red ) in my radar arch. Bought them from Apex Lighting www.yachtlights.com they fit the existing holes and only two wires. Just turn light off and on quickly to change color.

    Into month 4

    I was just through that situation. Had factory defects when I purchased my 290 last year some discoloration around the port side windows. It took them 3 months to get it right after I had them send it back and its still not perfect. I just decided to give up and live with it.
