    Where is your bilge heater installed on 420DA

    Although I own a 2000 model 460 with cummins diesels, I installed 2 Woverine heaters on my oil pans. They are awesome. They use very little power (400 watts each). They are only approx. 1/8 inch thick and are about 5" x 5". The beauty of these are is that they heat the entire engine which in...

    lost my anchor and chain today

    I just went through the same ordeal on Sunday afternoon. I have a 460 DA with 285 ft of chain and a delta plow anchor. After 2 hours of tugging from every angle, I was able to let out enough chain to pull at 180 degrees (in a 25 knot wind) from where I was and pulled up a huge tree stump. After...

    Boat lift for 50ft.

    Hey Mick, Tom from Tulsa here, thats awesome...! I would like to see the hydraulics...Would that work in a typical slip? Everyone out here uses those hydrohoists, if they make one that will lift 33000 lbs, I"m not aware of it. Plus I wouldn't be able to afford it looking at the prices of...

    Bent bow rail

    Thanks to everyone for all the responses. It sounds like removing the bow rail bolts is harder than repairing the rail. The bend portions are on the upper side so no welding is needed except from upright to upright since the bend on both are in the middle between the uprights....

    Fresh Water Pump runs non-stop

    My 460 has dual pumps in line, I found if i drained water from a point lower than the pumps, air would come out and solve the problem for a bit. After closer examination I found a slight leak on the intake side causing the air bubbles thus the pressure drop...Hope this helps

    Bent bow rail

    I own a 2000 model 460DA that had a slight dent and bent about 3 sections back on the port side. I decided to leave it since it was not all that severe. Well, Memorial day weekend I was tied to a friends dock. While having dinner a huge storm came out of nowhere causing the boat to rock...

    Drain sump box & a chlorine tablet ??

    I found that dumping a 1/2 cup or so of simple green in the drains before I leave the boat for the weekend really keeps the sump cleaner and disolves some of the "goop" that accumulates.
