It makes a lot of sense to start preparing. Especially since we are close to send of season here in NY. If it starts creeping up the coast people are going to have sandy flashbacks and start panicking. My wife and I already have a list and are starting to check things off. Lets hope its just...

I had a 2000 215 EC from new. Loved it! The biggest 21.5 on the planet. I added trim tabs and that helped the port to starboard lean because I'm a big guy. We ran that boat everywhere.. Put almost 100 hours the first season. Plenty of power, plenty of room. I wished mine had the extended...

I have a friend who went up hard in the "normal" channel in moriches last sat at high tide. I would call sea tow or Boat us and ask for there local knowledge. Sea tow was very helpful to me last year. Seems to be a bit dicey. Slow is the name of the game as always. have a great trip

I'm looking to upgrade the electronics and Im wondering if my Mercruiser 496 MAG (2008) can be interfaced with a new Raymarine A68, so I can show all my engine functions on the screen. It currently does not have smartcraft on the boat. If so what cable is needed? Thanks ED

You really need to be aware that the 240DA has a decent about up top, especially with the enclosure up. The wind loves to throw it around with docking. I had a 2003 since new and just sold it. We cruised all over with it. You will also become a trim tab professional, that boat needs a ton of...

with regard tot he backing issue with the carpet, has anyone used flex seal?

Your boat looks great! With regard to the backing stuck to the floor. Mine came off a lot easier after I let it stay wet for a while and then used simple green and a stiff brush. Maybe mine was not as bad. Good Luck with it.

We finally did the sea trial on this boat on Saturday and it ran great. We did find a slight leak on the cool fuel module where the lower raw water hose hooks up and the trim gauge was not working. I know about the issues with the cool fuel module and I know the trim senders continue to be an...

thanks for that info.

Hello all I am working on a deal on a boat that has a 2008 Merc 496 MAG bravo 3 drive. The boat has 219 hours on it. I have copies of current owners maintenance records that only are for one year. It includes usual spring make ready stuff. In august of 2014 the gimbal, universals, o ring...

This is why I asked this forum and why I will still stay with this forum. Thanks for all the detailed well thought out reply's. We are back and forth now and it seems the seller will be "paying" for the boat to be up and running and ready for survey. Another point, I already know the bills are...

BTW... the agreement is a standard Yacht Purchase and Sale agreement like the standard template you find online.

I can see both sides of the equation. I am trying to be fair, but protect myself from a bill at the end that I shouldn't be responsible for. Lets assume the Survey goes fine, sea trial goes fine and I accept the boat. I pay for the survey and launching the boat, and then I pay again to have it...

I have sold my Sea Ray and will be joining the Formula family, but I still lurk on this site because I love the banter. I have an agreed price on a boat that is being represented by a broker on behalf of the owner. The broke send me a purchase contract that looks pretty standard except that its...
