Thanks sailors, I will, and yes, my bad, South Beach.

Thanks for the reply, I guess I’ll wait until I get there. We are staying in an Art Deco place in South Miami, so no Fort Lauderdale lol. Yeah, I forgot about the concierge for sure. The hop on hop off sounds interesting but would really like to have a more private outing on a nice cruiser.

Hey All, a bunch of us, 4 couples are travelling to Miami to start a 14 day cruise in the Caribbean. I have seen so many Miami River cruise videos on YouTube and it got me to thinking that perhaps someone on th forum has a boat that would take us on a bit of a cruise. We'd be willing to pay of...

I’m not sure what you mean here? As I understand it, in the galley electrical panel, I have switches for AC & DC equipment. Above that are switches to where I draw power from, either shore or generator. Since I don’t have a generator, there is no switch. At the bottom of my panel is the Link...

Oh, and I should say that I have had the engine at WOT of 4600 RPM when running it this summer to test everything and had no problems. That’s why I’m thinking it’s not a fuel pump problem. Will advise once the damn stores open here to get my filters lol!

Thanks, I did do a visual on the very small air vent inlet in fuel cap, nothing that I can see. I was looking at a Maxam 270 SC and that boat has a separate vent on the side of the hull, I think I like that better. Maybe my fuel cap is not allowing air into the vent?

I’m not sure if I have cool few or not, I suspect I do, I’ll wander down to marina today and have a look. As for check fuel pressure, I guess it’s over to YouTube as I have no idea how to do that unless the Smartcraft gauge has it? Thanks

I am ordering new fuel filters to replace, eventhough they were replaced only about 50 hours ago. As for the air vent, I'm not sure how I check that, its such a small line from the fuel filler cap down. I'm not sure if the little filter covering the airway has an obstruction or not, I can't see...

Well, I had to pay for C-Tow to bring some fuel out to me the other night! Grrrr! I had over 1/2 a tank registering on the fuel gauge, however, the engine just died. I had fuel filters change in 2020, but only used the boat for about 50 hours in the past 2 years. So I thought, oh, I have a fuel...

Hey thanks for replying, I figured it out on Sunday, so this is aftermarket, and when I leave the dock, I don't really bother shutting the shore power switch off near the galley sink below, because I just use DC power. Well, if I shut it off, then select the Link 1000 to Invert, the little green...

Hi All, Happy sailings! I'm new to the cruising world and got myself a great 2005 Sundancer 260. I've figured everything out so far, working on the macerator, not sure if I have it yet, don't want to open the valve in the marina!! Anyway, I can't figure out how to get inverter power to run my...

Thanks for the replies, I looked at the system more closely today, and the large hose from the seacock through a strainer says in the manual that it is for the generator, however, it is not, it goes from the sea strainer to under the block to the water pump on the engine. From there it goes into...

Hi All, I've searched the winterizing section here and all is great info, but soooo many different systems and not everyone is clear on what system they have or what they are doing. As I sauy in my title I have a Mercruiser 350 MAG MPI, its in a 2005 Sundancer 260. I have a closed system, the...

It works!

M34R, but my courtesy lights are bayonet style, not festoon or pin, so looking for that option. Bayonet is the type put in the rear blinkers of older cars, push in and twist to secure the bulb

Hi All, I just bought my first Sea Ray, and I can say, they are a beautiful boat! I am in the process of learning about everything from electronics to winterizing right now! I joined up ClubSeaRay hoping to learn from everyone here, and there is a lot of information, however, finding exactly...

Out of work, not retired yet, lol
