Fellow Captains, Recently had a repower on our starboard engine. It was time and it had low compression on two cylinders. Genuinely very happy with it now - couldn't ask for better. However, I'm a tinkering type and have some questions. New engine has been going through break-in as...

Ahoy! If you’ve seen some of my other posts you’re aware that I’ve been fighting a bum 454 in my 95 330DA. I’m afraid there’s no saving it and I’m currently sourcing a take out. My questions are- 1- with my boat being v-drive, is there any difference between a v drive and stern drive 454...

Hey Guys! Interested in upgrading my electronics. We're on the Ohio River - no need for anything to bananas or offshore capable. But I have an opportunity to upgrade our Chart plotter and add a fish finder, so I'm going to take it :) Only real stipulation - I want an In-hull transducer...

1995 mercruiser 7.4 - it’s in a 330DA. Had to remove the carburetor - reattached and can’t get fuel now. wondering what I’m missing as I feel like it’s simple. Everything worked fine before. Tried starting fluid and engine will only run when it’s sprayed in. Is there an O-ring between the...

Alright Fellow Captains, I must tap into your infinite wisdom once more... I swear this boat needs an exorcism. Background: Purchased boat - batteries were dead. Said whatever - replaced all four. Haven't used it much between now and then aside from when I've been at the marina completing...

Ok - little background. we just recently purchased our 330DA. Had a compression test done, had the boat looked over by a mechanics - everything checked out. On sea trial one of the four manifolds / risers got hot. 200 degrees compared to the other three at 95 or so. we negotiated it into...

Alright - little background. We previously had a 26' Bayliner Ciera. Single engine, two batteries, no generator. It was basic - wasn't much that needed explanation. Never had any charging issues or the like. I knew the microwave, refrigerator, and outlets only worked on shore power. When...

Looking for some help and part numbers here if anyone can help. I have an issue with my starboard 7.4L where the risers/manifolds are reaching about 200 degrees on the port side bank. Other manifolds / risers are around 90-95 degrees. Engines are raw water cooled. Temp gauge is showing it's...

Hey gang! the wife and I are going to be having the cockpit of our 330DA reupholstered and we’re looking for inspiration. Let’s have the CSR members show off their custom jobs! Cockpits, cabins, let’s see it!

Hey guys! we’re going to look at a 1995 330 Sundancer this weekend and wanted to get some pointers on what to check out. it has the twin 454 v-drives. Only real concern I have initially are the really low hours. 240 on the engines and 640 on the generator. Seems quite low for a 1995. Any...

Hey gang! The day has come - we're upgrading from our tired Bayliner to a glorious Sundancer 290! I'm trying to figure out the specs on the 1998 5.7s - what's the horsepower? Appreciate any help!
