Alpha Gen2 Drive.
When I put the boat away last Sunday I had the drive down while flushing the motor. After flushing I used the trim up till the drive stopped. I did not use the trailer button to bring the drive fully up.
Tonight I went out to get the boat ready for tomorrow and when I hit...
I just picked up a used 740s. It is connecting to satellites, however changing map orientation doesn't change the boat icon direction on the screen.
North Up
Track Up
Course Up
All of these settings do not change position on the map. What am I missing in the settings?
5.0 EFI in a 2000 215EC
While in idle but under way the RPM will increase about 200 and then drop back to normal. It doesn't do it all the time, however it is starting to become more frequent. Is this a sign that the IAC is going south?

I need to install a new dash remote for the stereo. Does anyone know how the factory ran the Clarion wire from the stereo in the cabin to the helm?
Thanks!!

Dock mate has a 320 and the fresh water pump constantly cycles and blows water out the side vent. Any idea what is causing this?
Thanks!

I had 2 cans of this fail on me tonight. Both cans would not stop spraying. I have spray on the back of the boat, the underside of the swim platform, my arms, and ruined a pair of jeans. I returned the cans. Had to argue with the manager but finally got the refund. Sending an email to West also...
One of the threads for the anode behind the prop is stripped. Can I use a helicoil to repair the thread? All the helicoils are SS and the carrier is aluminum.

On my top the rear support pole has an inner pole that is supposed to slide. The inner is frozen because of salt residue. Any ideas on what to spray or soak them in to free up the inner pole?
I have them soaking in the tub with hot water, doesn't seem to be working.

I have contacted Sea Ray several times to get the correct gel coat color for my 215EC. No one is emailing me back. I am looking for the hull color as well as the dash color. I have not contacted Spectrum yet.
Does anyone know the colors for a 2000 215EC?

I am in CT and will be registering the boat in SC, will be moving there in a few months.
Does SC check the book value of a boat when registering? I understand there is a cap of $300.

I am getting new tires and rims for my trailer. I already have new tires, and still need to purchase the rims. The 14" rims come in 4.5, 5.5, and 6 for width. My tires are 205/75/14. All 3 rims are compatible. What width rim would be best?

The plastic support ends on the poles look like they are locked into the pole. I have one that is broken. Can they easily be pulled out and a new one pressed in?
It looks like the one in the pic.

I've been having an issue with the STBD shaft seal. A few weeks ago it started leaking while above 2500 rpm. Backing down and it will slowly stop. I read that burping them and sanding with 400 wet dry paper should stop a leak. I did that tonight, went out for a ride and everything seemed...
My STBD motor will start fine from a cold start. Run it for 5 min or even less and it wont restart. Holding the throttle wide open and it will start after several seconds of cranking. After a few seconds it smooths out and runs fine... I dont think its vapor lock. I am going to rebuild the carb...
