    Boat Alarms

    Does anyone have experience with boat alarms? Recently we've had a lot of theft at the marinas on our lake. Someone is coming in at night (assumed from the water) and sealing chart plotters, audio / video equipment, engine parts, etc... Having an open bow boat, I realize I'm limited on what I...

    Small Anchor

    Can anyone recommend an anchor that will fit in the anchor locker of a new 270 SDX. I decided to forgo the windless for the bow boarding ladder, but I'm having a heck of a time finding an anchor small enough to fit in the locker under the bow seat. At this point I'm regretting not getting the...

    New Sea Ray Fonts

    It appears that Sea Ray has updated the font that are on the transom (model / number) They look lighter (more narrow) then the fonts on our SLX. Does anyone know what the new font they're using is? I need to order our registration numbers, and would like for them to match if possible.

    Winterizing Outboards

    What's everyone's thoughts on winterizing an outboard. I'm in the south (Georgia) but we do have freezing tempatures. I've always winterized our boats, but excited about the year round boatability (especially since we get random 70 degree "winter" days) of our incoming outboard. Just wanted to...

    Gauges not working

    So everything was working fine a week ago, today I noticed my Speed and Trim Guages are no longer working. They don't show any readings, needle just sits at the bottom. I checked fuses (didn't see any specific to the gauges) and everything looks ok. Any idea where to start troubleshooting? It's...

    Depth Finder

    I have a 2011 Sea Ray 250SLX, with the Merc Cruiser "Smart Gauges". The boat came with a thru-hull transducer. It's worked great up until this year. I recently launched the boat, and now all I'm getting is a reading of 8.5 then --- and occasionally my depth alarm begins to sound (when I know it...

    2016 F150 Tow Rig

    Hi everyone! I've been a long time member of the forums, but been pretty quite the past few years. I'm in the process of purchasing a new vehicle to tow my boat, and am looking for some feedback (as I've never trailered a boat before.) I currently have 2011 Sea Ray 250 SLX (dry weight...

    Garmin or Raymarine

    I'm researching chart plotters / GPS for our SLX, I had a Raymarine on my Sundancer, and it was touch and go.. But when it worked it worked well, and had lots of integrated pieces (gps, radar, sonar, etc..). I doubt well connect anything more then just basic plotting / GPS, mainly remembering...

    Throttle Issue ?

    I was pulling into the marina today, and while maneuvering to my slip, I had a problem with my throttle for my port side engine . For a moment it was stuck in the forward position. After playing with it (pulling on back, pushing in, pulling harder) I was able to get it into neutral and didn't...

    290 Filler Cushions

    I have a 2006 290 Sundancer and I have heard they make a filler cushion for in between the rear seat and the seat on the port side. This would make the two seats come together, and create more of a "wrap around" feel. I have also been told you can get fillers for the bow cutout windows in the...
