97 dancer sagging cabinet in cabin on starboard side

[John254]

Just bought recently and this was on my list to fix. I need help removing the cabinet which is rotted out on the right side below the window. Can anyone help me with any tips so I don't make more damage. Is this a common issue? Please help!

I had this when I purchased my 330. Marinemax fixed it perfectly. You will have to remove the whole thing... I believe it is attached to the left and right bulkheads. There might have been faring strips expoxied to the upper deck but not sure!

Take out the stereo panel and look in there. That will get you some interior looks in there.

Well thank you but No luck with that I have it all exposed and Don’t see any hardware that’s attaching it. It’s loose on the right side where it’s rotted but the left side is solid. I don’t want to damage the panel in between the cabinet and closet.

UGH... I never really asked what exactly they did. I believe they did re-attach and through bolted it into the hanging locker on the left side. I really don't think it is expoxied in place I really think there are screws holding it..

Maybe a quick email to Sea Ray would help?

Yeah it was blind screwed behind the vinyl. In the process of rebuilding the cabinet. I will post some pics when complete. Happy boating!

Awesome. Pics would be great!!! I am sure others will have this issue since both of us have encountered it.
