I'm going to try something unconventional on my boat to help with the trimming duties. I bought some Nauticus Smart Tabs, the kind that has the shock absorbers for actuators and react automatically. Well, I intend to install them inboard of the Bennett hydraulic tabs. My thought is the Nauticus tabs will react automatically to help with getting on plane and trim set, and I can still use the bennetts to manually trim side to side as I feel necessary. Worse case they fight each other and I have to remove them. I'll post results after I install and run the boat! Wish me luck.
Hey everyone! just like George295 (congrats!), I purchased 1996 240 Sundancer. Took it out this weekend for the first time and it was amazing. I just have a couple of questions if anyone can answer:
1. The rear bench in our 240 was broken when we bought it and it looks like it was repaired before, incorrectly. I was wondering what you had supporting the rear bench. It looks like we had someone cut two triangle supports out of Marine board and screwed them into the transome. I looked in the old parts manual and saw that there was a something called a "support swing leg"....is that what you have? I called Marinemax and they have one available in their Writghtsville, NC offce. Before i order it, i just want to make sure it's the correct part. I've found a couple online that I can cut to size, but I'd rather have an original part if possible.
2. I hooked up the shore power, 220V, with a 110V adapter to my houses power. It looked like power was getting to the boat, but when i turned on the panel, nothing worked. Is there something else I have to turn on/off as well? maybe another switch elsewhere on the boat?
Thank you in advance!
Hey nsxis77, best of luck with your 240 Sundancer. Had ours out today for the first trip to Tice's Shoals and had a great time.

Did you go this past Saturday to Tices Shoal. Aquapolloza was held their this Saturday. 250 boats and 900ppl registrered. I was going to go but coming from the Raritan Bay would of been a 6 hour trek there and back and there was a good easterly wind blow on Saturday so I decided to stay local.
trying other options never thought my new 240 didnt come with a table , dealer wants 800.00 for a teak one or 650 for a cherry one and if i want one in the cabin the filler cushions for it are 550.00 thats 550.00 for a 29 by 36" cushion any one now where to get a table thats a little more reasonable prices dont even include the pedestal or base
I have an extra set of interior cushions for the V-birth and Mid Birth. Also have the filler Cushion for the V-birth let me know if you are interested. This are brand new from Searay by the way.
THey are the brown color pictured here.
Spike, your interior cushions are slightly different than mine. Funny the differences between similar year boats.
