Greetings all! I'm a life-long sailboater looking to transition to power boating and I have my eye on a very nice 1998 Sea Ray 400 Sedan Bridge with Caterpillar 3116's that have been recently overhauled. The boat is in great condition, inside and out, except for a couple of areas of soft...
I am not sure if this is the right place to be posting. Apologies if not. We are owners of a 2001 400 Sedan Bridge. We bought the boat new and have enjoyed it for two decades. We moved to Colorado in 2019. We were able to live on the boat this past season due to C-19 and wfh however, it is...
We were out for a slow cruise on smooth waters recently. When we returned to the dock, I found that the oil fill cap on the generator had apparently vibrated off. Any advice for creating a tighter fit on the oil fill cap so this does not recur? Generator is a Westerbeke BTD 8kw.
Thank you,
My refer in my 400db died just before the weekend. It was working perfect and then boom. Green light comes on and off but I don't hear anything cycling when I adjust thermostat. Is there anything obvious to check before I just throw in towel. I do not want to call a shop for service because 2...
As any of my northern dwelling boating brethren know, it was one HELL of a brutal winter!! Last weekend was only the second time I've been aboard our boat since last November (first time was the weekend before), but it sure feels great :-) Had to jump back aboard to get my final measurements for...
Need some advise from my fellow boaters. We currently own a 290 dancer. We have been in boating for about 2 years - so novices. We went to go look at some boats yesterday - considering a move up by 2-3 feet. We came across a '98 400 Sedan Bridge. Wife fell in love with it. It is way too...
Added an aftermarket auxiliary muffler on our 9KW gas Westerbeke genny & very impressed with how much it knocks down the sound!

This year, 2012, I purchased a lightly used freshwater 400 Sedan Bridge with only 250 hours on the motors and 110 on the generator. Loved the style and layout, but very dated. Got a great deal on the boat and decided to renovate. Put all new canvas on the bridge which included windows in the...
I just bought a 1997 400 Sedan Bridge a month that has two heads. Both Vacuflush units were working when I bought the boat. The VIP head stopped working after a couple of uses. When I step on the pedal, the trap opens but it does not flush and then it adds water to the bowl. The head in the...
