Just thought I'd pass this on. I keep my boat at Chesapeake Yacht Club. It's located in Shady Side, MD, on the West River. I love that place. It's got a pool, restaurant, fuel/pumpout, nice grounds, and a nice view. To put the location in perspective, the place is 2 hours away from...

I was noticing this weekend that the water pressure in all the faucets was pretty low and the shower was weaker than usual. Since I was on city water, I figured my pressure regulator was acting up. I've seen other posts where this seemed to be the case. Just before leaving, though, I checked...

Hey all, there's a big crab festival every Labor Day weekend in Crisfield. It's a lot of fun, it's all about crabs, and there's the boat docking contest everyone should see at least once. The place to stay is Somers Cove Marina. http://www.dnr.state.md.us/publiclands/eastern/somerscove.html...

I was winterizing the boat yesterday and I couldn't get the spin-on secondary fuel filters un-screwed. I have a strap wrench and the filters wouldn't budge. The wrench wasn't slipping, either. I just gave up as I was expending way to much effort trying to get that done. After thinking about...

I thought you guys may find this interesting. I saw "some" of a 2008 330 Sundancer today. It's sitting at Prince William Marina and it's shrink wrapped so I could only see the hull. It's got the same hull ports as the 310 so I can only assume the styling will be similar to the 310. I...

I've got a couple of messages I sent as replies to some private messages. They still appear in my out box, though. Is there a way to kick off a "send?"

Thinking of moving up to a 44 DB with the QSC500 engines. Any advice or things to look out for? This would be my first experience with a flying bridge and diesel power. Thanks in advance for any input.

I went to the boat to run the engines and generator and while running the generator I noticed the anti-siphon break was spouting water into the bilge. There's a clear, 1/4" hose attached to the break and the water was flowing through it in a steady stream. It was a good stream. The hose is...

I was going through old boating equipment after trading in the 300. I found two vent covers I had made after last winter as part of a winter canvas package (front hatch cover, flag cover, fender covers, etc...) These things are high density foam with a navy blue sunbrella cover, shaped to fit...

Hello all. I'm new to the board and new to my boat. I've only had her out once and the smartcraft was showing .8 MPG from 3200 RPM all the way to 4000 RPM. The boat felt really happy at 3800 RPM. Will this be a reasonable cruise RPM if I don't want to abuse the engines? I know about the 80%...

My name is Larry and I just bought a slightly used, practically new 38 Sundancer. My wife and I used to have a 300DA, named "River Gal," that we kept at Fairfax Yacht Club on the Potomac. We'd been talking about getting something a little bigger and went to the Annapolis boat show, just to...

My first post. Just testing. :thumbsup: bold [/list]
