Thanks for sharing this! Any issues with these running off the existing wiring? I feel like I have read that in order to switch to LED lights one would have to do all kinds of changes to wiring and such? Or is it this simple to swap out the bulb?

I have to check as it’s at our house in Florida, but i believe it was the KVH tv6 dome, i think 24 inches wide. However, with the new mobile unit from Starlink you no longer need the dome as i don’t believe the charges are the same for the units. It worked great the old way and works great the...

The new generation is meant to be hard mounted and it rotates as it needs inside the unit. It always stays connected and we have never had any issues with connectivity. We have the roam subscription, but you will have to choose the mobility (i think) option for water or coastal use. I know...

Absolutely love it! Had the old rectangular version prior that i had mounted in a dome. Switched to this when it came out. Was thrilled with both. Excellent service and actually feel like its almost faster than our home service. :D

In my personal opinion: we went from the 44 sedan bridge to the 58. We looked at the 52 sedan bridge but essentially it did not add much room. The two guest rooms on the 52 were very small and master was still the vberth. The 58 with MAN engines runs like a champ and runs smoother and faster...

Just thought about this today: what about putting the prop under the Master bedroom bed? Seems like it would then be pretty centered on the boat and still fairly close to center of gravity?

Also, here are a couple pics of the new captains walk completed on our property that allowed me to move it from the marina to the house full time. Next up is a complete isinglass replacement on the rear half. Other than that I have her in pretty much the shape I want her in. :D

For those of you who helped me out on the direction for the hydraulic platform adjustment THANK YOU! Here is a pic after the divers and our tech did the adjustments while it was in the water. I’m much happier with it now.

Don’t feel stupid! it was new to all of us at some point! This is a great forum! FYI ill be posting in a few minutes on our hydraulic platform adjustment. :D

Spare Prop storage Question: So I have a spare prop stored in the ER at the bottom of the steps under the plywood platform. Has anyone ever moved this to a different location in the ER? It sure would be nice to be able to come down the ER ladder and be able to walk straight to the engines with...

Water Tank Drainage question: I recently added water tank cleaning agent from west marine and did the process to clean the water tank. I ended up draining the water tanks through the valve on the waterheater. I am just curious if there is another way to do this besides opening all the faucets or...

FYI here is the link the lift manuals that show how to make the adjustment in case anyone else is looking for it. Thank you all for pointing me in the right direction. https://www.ghslift.com/technical-info/swim-lift-info

Thank you everyone! I should have known better but so happy you provided the input and makes it a quicker adjustment. Greatly appreciated! Happy new year!!!

Does anyone else feel like their hydraulic platform angles slight down to the aft? I have a 2007 580 Sedan bridge and i cant tell if its just mine or appears that way on all 58s? Thanks!

I have not had any issues with ours; however looking at your picture it may just be a simple fix with with some black tape to fill that in or getting the right kind of black paint and just masking it off and painting in the chipped area. Just my two cents. Good luck!

Hey Chris! Yes! We were actually supposed to close on the sale of our 44 last september the Friday after IAN hit and close on the 580 that monday. We needless to say the 44 was destroyed when Legacy Harbour (downtown fort myers) was destroyed. We had good insurance and they cut us a check...

Does anyone know how to access the plugins behind the tv in the bunk room? We have a 2007 580 and it appears that they drilled a hole through the wall behind the panel. Im guessing it leads to behind the freezer. I tried removing the return air wood vent next to the freezer but it wont pull out...

Hydraulic platform question: Right now i have to hold the white switch for the platform down while I push on and then choose up or down on the remote. If i release the white switch the remote turns off. Is this normal or could something be wrong? I thought I would be able to flip the white...

Hey does anyone know where the Bridge GFI plug would be located? Got down to the boat today and the outdoor plugins are all dead. They did a wash down today and guessing they tripped the GFI. However, i can not for the life of me located the GFI that controls the outside? Any suggestions...

I agree! Quick question carterchapman…did you have your back shade made or was it already on your boat when you purchased it?
