Yea haha pics got flipped somehow, I’m actually gonna have him wax the hull again in the water in July to keep it nice. That’s funny because I was telling my mechanic I’m gonna turn the boat upside down to lift the manifolds into the motors instead of lowering them in
The microwave really wasn't that bad. Three screws - one on each front corner, and one in the middle about halfway back. Loosened these up and the whole unit with the shelf it sits on slides right out. Then there are four screws holding the unit to the shelf. Did some "googling" and found several appliance part houses that stock all the internal parts. Also found a local guy who works on small appliances (tv's, microwaves, etc) and carried this to him. He called yesterday and said there is a "bad board", and he should get it in 4 or 5 days. So, hopefully I dodged the bullet.Not this model but I have replaced fuses in other Microwaves. Its usually a pretty simple procedure. But it this case you need to remove the microwave which I have not done on this boat (yet).

Hello Micheal. Sounds like you and I have the same issue see post #1246. I was out today and boat ran well for nearly 2 hrs before hearing the ignition beep and watching port tac fall to 0. Within a second or 2 power returns and like you,haven’t needed to restart the engine. It happened at various speeds and it’s very frustrating. Opened the dash and checked all connections. Tomorrow going in bilge and will check all grounds as well as opening electric panel in cabin and check all its connections. My mechanic found no faults on his computer and seems stumped. I’ll write if I find a cure.
Brand new I've seen them about $2k; I've also seen some used ones on ebay but would be leery...What’s the price on a new ecm? Curious bc I think I have a situation starting to develop
Hi I have a 2005 with the same issue that started last season. I believe it's the ECM (computer module). It started in my starboard engine, but would only happen one time soon after ignition (wouldn't have to restart engine, but it would beep and lose gauges for two seconds). My mechanic was stumped for a while, then switched the starboard ECM with the port side and narrowed it down to a computer issue. It's nothing mechanical and I've continued using the boat until I can get my hands on a new/used ECM.

It works great. It has been on the boat for 5yrs without an issue. We sleep on the boat almost every weekend in the summer and I have it on all night every night we sleep on the boat. I like it cool and air moving around me when I sleep. It move quite a bit of air and is fairly quite as well.So, the real question is are they worth the money?? I have been wanting to add one in the cockpit to move air on calm days - especially when it gets a little buggy. The suction cup mount would be great because I could place it on the arch and then remove when not needed.
