Most critical alarms will be constant and reduce RPM's preventing major damage. I honestly don't know, but there are alot of smart people on this board that might not frequent the "sport boats" section. I'd re-post in the "Gas engines" section and you will get better exposure. Best of luck

We must hang out on the same message boards...Check the drive oil bottle mounted on the engine. When it gets low it will give one quick beep every now and then.

Should be an easy fix. Nothing more than regular maintenance. What engine do you have? If its the 496 I can walk you through it.

I just went through a similar issue and it was indeed the hose coming through the transom. Not sure what kind of boat it is, but I did mine without pulling the engine. Since it's a PITA to install the plastic bushing/retainer I went a different route. Check out the IM654 kit...

I'm curious why you are selling them? Did you have 3x3 originally and upgrade to these? I need to figure out what pitch I need going from 3x3 to 4x3. Thanks.

Welcome to the board. Great boat. We have had ours almost 10 years now and I still get compliments on it every time we're out. If you haven't gotten all the manuals and such let me know and I have the pdf's as well. Whats ironic about this thread is I've seen very few 270's with the tower...

Bennett Thanks for the response. I do think the problem is more "waiting for the Gauge" than anything. Did replacing the sender and limit switch help? Is it normal for the gauge to lag behind? If they are all like this it must be a smart craft thing because I've had alphas, volvo, and...

Thanks Dennis. This one has me stumped. I won't be back in town for another week or so but I will physically observe the drive and post a video for you to see. Appreciate the help

Ok who can help me understand the trim sender and limit switch. My boat has always "trimmed" (up or down) way too fast. You literally have to do it in 1/2 second bursts and then wait for the gauge to catch up. Usually 2 half second bursts and the trim is past the level (1/2 way on the gauge)...

Got to be a 270 with the forward arch tower...He has good taste in boats.

Ordered my SD with the tower and have no regrets. Sure I have to drive to the taller section of a couple bridges to pass but not a big deal...It's all about the ride anyways. Of course the tower is good for watersports and keeping the rope up but there are many benefits I didn't expect. While...

There is a Valet place on 105 Just E of Papas (cant remember the name). I stored at the Palms Marina (end of 830) for several years. Great amenities, but not the cheapest. It's owned by the same people who own EZ storage. When we lived in the Woodlands the Palms was great since it has the...

Does anybody know where the factory stereo amp is? I've looked everywhere and I cant find it. Tried following the wires from the back of the head unit, but loose track of them between the bathroom and the rear lounge. I know the boat has one because I had issues with the wire terminal at the...

Like stated find out what kind of fishing she does. I'd get her a custom rod made with her name in it and some pink lacing or whatever she's into. This guys Rods are Awesome and his is a great guy. http://billystixrods.wordpress.com/welcome-to-billystix-custom-fishing-rods/ There is no...

Need a new head in the boat. Has anybody tried one of these? Great price:grin: http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_11151_10001_431312_-1?cid=E_mybuys#.UGnmfJhlWSo

Where do you boat? I'm up on Lake Conroe...Welcome and nice Boat!

I have a 270 with a factory tower. Unlike the 240 it's a Fwd raked tower so I'm not sure how that would affect your canvas setup. The tower has it's own bimini (actually 2 that are connected with a zipper; one goes FWD. and one aft). Monster builds the tower for Searay...I only know this...

You want to see some bikinis...Just look to the ads on the right of every page you load here. Chuck the way I read it is it's ok as long as the site makes $$$ off it. What say you?

I'm in for one...Been wanting to get one for some time now. How will he handle the billing / shipping. Thanks

If it makes Y'all feel any better my local lake is >2' low making it hard to get out of some of the marinas. Many lakefront homes can't even put their boats in off their lifts because the water is too shallow. Were seeing islands pop up everywhere. To make it worse the wind has been blowing...
