Yup, I recaulked mine a while back. Dug out the old caulk, cleaned them up and recaulked with life caulk.
Watch those deck rails / grab handles. They will leak and its a bitch to get to the bottom of them.

TIA

Yes, by razor blade / box cutter, what ever cleans works. I did not remove the glass...

How did u do the rails and grab handles?
 
What was the raymarine axiom unit that fit in the left side panel where the c80 is mounted? Axiom 9? If I get that unit the cost is around 1000$, can I add Radar down the road?
 
I wound up installing a simrad go 9

Anyone know if we have a circuit breaker somewhere for the anchor? I hit the button on the dash to energize and I hear a click in the bilge but the green light doesn’t illuminate.

In my 360DA there is a breaker on the panel in the bilge.
 
Hey Guys, i am filling my water tank, and the pump comes on automatically and drains it right to empty?
Has anyone dealt with something like this before?

Any assistance or advise appreciated!

Sounds like you have a leak. You can shut the pump off with the water system breaker in the 12V panel. If it's leaking, the water has to be going somewhere. Make sure your transom shower is turned off and your water heater drain are closed as a starting point.
 
When you say right away what time frame are you taking about? I have been intentionally flushing my tanks and with the pump it takes a while?

Is you bilge filling and bilge pump coming on? Might indicate a problem near the pump/fresh water manifold/water heater.

I was really busy completing work push to have everything backlogged completed for the Memorial Day so did not have as much time to surf the forums so posts were down.

BTW, from our previous conversation I now stock those Carling Switches for the battery solenoids if you still need them and we are also stocking ResQFlares from ACR (no more expired flares). We are now ACR authorized as well as Raymarine, Garmin and Fusion to add to the list with a few more coming ... plus we have a couple internal projects in the works. Our business with Great Lakes was put on hold as they stopped taking orders so we needed something to keep that going.

On top of that we just wrapped up the consolidation of our two data centers for my IT business. So it was very busy and very long days.

Boat did not splash until just before Memorial Day and brought her to our marina on Sunday 5/30 just in time for the Holiday. Did not even have time to clean her. On Memorial Day we hosted a wreath laying ceremony along with a blessing of the fleet in our park. Then walked the docks for a couple of raffles, hung out a little and went home exhausted.

Now fighting an AC issue - got real good water flow, clean filter, compressor cycles on off, just no heat or cold, so its not the reversing value and no error codes - looking at a probable coolant issue. Hopefully going to have someone look at this week. Since its 17 yo and R-22 coolant I am inclined to swap the unit. Problem is I am looking at a 16K Dometic drop in that is back ordered (like everything else this year). Depending on the charge level maybe I can get it topped off to buy some time.

You have been busy! The ACR flares are a great idea.
I replace my factory original heat pump with a MarinAire 14,000 btu/hr unit. Easy install; Very happy with it.

If your interested we have them at a great price too - PM me. I probably should list them in the classified section.

This is a intro I put together a couple of months ago:
