Same with the main exhausts. The ports are at or under water - esp with full fuel.Has anyone found a better way for the generator exhaust to exit the boat? It seems to spray all over. I have checked the port and there is nothing lodged in there.

My time as a Sea Ray owner ended yesterday afternoon. The 58DB has moved on to another owner who moved it to it's new home in CT yesterday.
We really enjoyed the boat, and our 44DA before it but we're heading in a totally different direction for a while. Next boat has not yet been determined but will be shorter, significantly wider, have twice as many hulls and burn less fuel in a year than we burned in one average day.
Thanks to all on this thread for the help and information on what is a fantastic boat model.
Definitely one of the sad days, but looking forward to the future. Maybe one day we'll be back in a Sea Ray.

They used enough silicone gluing the icemaker door frame in! What a PITA.

My thoughts exactly!Good grief! You only owned it for a minute and a half!
Good luck with your next chapter!

Front Cushions from an early 2008
The front cushions are held in place with a track towards the bow and then secured by a cover that rides in a second track towards the bow and a zipper that is attached to a track up by the windshield. There are no other attachment points except the cover has two snaps on the handrail on port and starboard sides.
After the cover is removed, the cushions have a starboard type material that forms the back and a rest that allows for adjustable angles.
I apologize, but with over 1600 posts in this thread, and a search of the entire forum, I get "no results found". Would one of you remind me what the 58DB swim platform capacity is?
Thanks Chris,58DB Owners Manual has a display of warning label locations, including one for the swim platform. 800-lbs/363-kG. The diagram actually points at the fixed portion, not the hydraulic lift, but I think they do mean the lift.
GHS might have some specs quoted somewhere, too.
FWIW, we got a Highfield 340 with full console (not the minimized version) and with a Suzuki DF-20A (electric start, power tilt version). Just fits on the lift with almost no overhang (usually just a small bit of skeg/prop when we have the motor tilted a bit). Haven't used it enough to recommend yet, but you might at least find the dimensions useful. We had decent luck with our previous Suzuki outboards, though, including a DF-15A on the previous dink.

I have an AB 12 with a 40HP ETEC, and I think when I ride up with it, I'm at 1000 Lbs (total - not me!!), and it seems to do OK.
@missnmountains - did you get the boat back from DYS yet?
