Hey Everyone, I haven't been here in while but I am truly mystified. I have an 06 300DA that has been giving me some problems with a spontaneously draining starboard battery bank (two group 27s wired in parallel). I won't trouble you with the entire history, but finally I spent the day on the...

Probably old news to you guys and I'm sorry if there is already a thread on this (I did a search, couldn't find anything) I received an email from Sea Ray last week asking me to participate in a survey to state my preference on names for a new model they are contemplating in the 28' to 38'...

Hi All, I don't know if the following request is legal for the forums or not - if it isn't I apologize in advance... The admiral is itching for something a little bigger than our current 300DA - specifically an island v berth. Sea Ray options are an 08 330DA, an 08 350 and an 06 38DA...

I was in Hutchinson's Boat Works in Alexandria Bay, NY on the weekend and they had what was labelled as a 2011 350DA in their showroom. When I walked up to it, I was a bit perplexed because it has the hull windows like a 370DA - the long windows plus a circular light on each side. On the other...

Just in case you're interested: 1. Needed an articulating arm to mount a flat panel TV but wanted it to lock in place when underway. Check out www.moview.com for their WSSL single arm and double arm locking TV mounts. I ordered one online - well made and locks firmly in place with no wiggle...

Hi Again Guys, Sitting here in -13C weather with boating fever. Not a good combo. Anyway, I am going to change out the raw water impellers on my 5.0L engines this year (2006 300DA) and am trying to figure out what size of impeller puller to buy. Figure I may as well get the tool because this...

Hi Guys, Because my 2006 300DA is under shrink and snow and will be for the forseeable future, I am looking to find a diagram of the transom with measurements. I'm working with a designer on a vinyl name/logo and am trying to navigate around the transom locker, light, grab rail etc. Any...

Hi Guys, I'm starting to get the itch for boating season again, so I'm thinking of some jobs I'll try to tackle before the boat goes in again. I was thinking of changing the raw water impellers and have seen some useful threads here with good directions. I just want to be sure to get the...

Hey guys, Just took delivery of my "new" 2006 300DA. In hanging out doing some cleaning on the boat, I noticed the fresh water system pump runs for 5-10 seconds every 10 minutes or so. Seems to me this must be due to a leak somewhere but in a quick investigation, found no obvious signs of a...

I've got to move my "new to me" 2006 300DA from Woodbridge VA to Alexandria Bay NY. Option 1: Dually pickup with triaxle trailer, "conventional" hitch - $1300 Option 2: Big Rig with flatbed - $1800 (incl travellift load and unload) Any advice? Is the big rig worth the extra $500?

Hi All, I don't know if any of you have heard of the Sonos System for streaming internet radio and mp3s at home, but I'd like to do something like that on my 300DA (Clarion XMD4 Head Unit). Specifically, I like the Sonos because I can play mp3s off my NAS (hard drive) and control volume...

Hi Guys, This is a step I neglected to do last year when I joined the forums. My name is Jeremy, I'm from Brockville, Ontario (Canada). Lifelong sailor but last year, I decided that I only love racing sailboats, not cruising them so Miss Alison and I pursued going over to the dark side of...

Hi Guys, I've got a "new" 2006 300DA arriving in a few weeks and the marina where I bought it pointed out that it could use new zincs on both BIII drives. They quoted $950 for this, but it seems to be a DIY job - I'm pretty handy around the house, plumbing and electrical no problem, but I'm...

Hi All, I'm trying to arrange shipment of a 2006 300DA about 400 miles. It has to be hauled out of the water onto a boat trailer and splashed at a ramp at the destination. It likely will be travelling with at least partially full fuel tanks, all the canvas, cushions etc but empty holding tank...

Hi, I'm looking at buying a 2005 300DA that for some odd reason is missing the v berth cushions (the bottom cushions not the bolsters. The owner says they were stolen. Replacing the 2 OEM cushions through Sea Ray will be about $1100. Does anyone have any other reasonable alternatives that...
