Anyone have a furuno 711c autopilot? I'm trying to decide on a new autopilot, I like the 711c but have reservations about buying one because I think it's discontinued from what I've read. I'd like to know if anyone has one and if they like it, Thanks! Dan

Hello Searay owners, The autopilot quit working on my 390 express and I traced it to the circuit breaker, I flipped the breaker on but it kept tripping, long story short I ended up taking the pump out and opening the end piece that encases the electronics which include a small circuit board, one...

Now i know why my fuel consumption is so bad, all this stuff on the boat adds up! I'm getting ready to brave Mexico bay NY in the am, the highest wind Windfinder shows is 10mph at 8pm Saturday and it's northeast so that would be hittin me from the side going from Cape Vincent to Rochester, the...

For a while i could just jiggle the shifter until one of the engines will start, i figured it's probably the nuetral safety, but i think it's not now. I've been jumping the solinoid to start the engine but it sparks huge so i never know if i'll live another day that way, I jumped the nuetral...

:smt100 Hi Everyone, It's been a while, anyone know where to get a shower faucet repair kit for an 89 express if there is such a thing? I'm guessing the pink stuff did in the washers or o-rings or something in my shower faucet, it's all messed up and leaking when I turn it on. any tips on...

They launched my boat Friday, I went to start it, and they both fired up after only about ten seconds each. normally, it would crank for about 25 seconds before the fuel would make it to the cylinders or something.. so anyone know why it would normally take so much cranking to get them to start...

I put the caps back on and put 7 or 8 of them under the v-berth mattress, helps keep the mildew under control, I toss a mildew bag under there as well.

I've been thinking about this for years, and the older I get the better it sounds. Getting behind the engines, between the gas tanks and the engines to get at the drain valves is a real pain in the a.. what if I took the brass fittings off the manifolds and blocks and installed new fittings with...

My boat neighber (who's not into computers or internet) has 1981, closed cooled, 270 crusder engines. The other day, the stbd engine overheated, he let her cool down, then started it, it ran good but there was no water coming out of the exhaust, so today he replaces the impeller and water comes...

not that I'm unhappy with the 390, but I'm thinkin about a 97 500 Sundancer or similar year. Is there anything special to watch out for on the 500DA? I drive slow a lot, so I'm not sure what would be the best engine, but I'm hoping someone will know. I'll be in Alexandria bay, New York, tomorrow...

Since 2006 I've been wondering what one of this boats costed new? and how the options effected the price. I'm sure even now I couldn't afford one.. Thanks, Dan

Recently, the birds have become worse at hanging out on the front railings on my boat and making a mess, anyone have a technique for getting them to go away. I know, it's probably imposible, but worth a try, Thanks, Dan

I've been messing with the GPS (I have no chartplotter) and got it to talk to the autopilot. It doesn't seem to like me putting in the year 2010. So I'm thinkin, would a new chartplotter talk to the autopilot or would it be like the Jettsons talking to the Flintstones? The two units I have...

The other night, the power vent stopped working, then yesterday, the 110v outlets on the port side stopped working too. I tried turning off all power to the boat, switching power selector switch from circut 1, to 2, to generator, but nothing's working for me, any idea's? Thanks, Dan

I have an area in the forward berth where the headliner is coming loose, the area is about 10 inches in diameter. Does anyone know a way to address this? Thanks!

It's countdown time in the Northeast!! :smt038

I was wondering I could get some idea's on how to fix the threads in the block and manifolds, I have one of each that i cant get the stock (new) brass plugs started in. I looked up into the manifold with a mirror and can see that the threads are gone, smooth now. The block drain really scares...
