Anyone had the pleasure of removing a V8 with the twin 5.0 setup. Trying to mentally prepare myself.
Can it be done with engine cover still on? How bout aft bolster? Load leveler?
Over the last few weeks, I've noticed I'm beginning to get water into my mid-berth, soaking the cushions. It seems to be coming from the starboard side of the boat, but not quite sure if that is because how it is sitting on a boat lift normally. No trace of water up the sides or the ceiling as I haven't been in there while raining. I also noticed just last night while changing the trash in the can that there is water around the shower sump bilge. I assume that's just where this water that's getting in is going. Any ideas on where it is most likely coming from? Years ago there was a great post on water intrusion in the 280DA and all the places to fix it, but I can't find it...
Here is the thread I think you were looking for. http://clubsearay.com/showthread.php/6516-water-under-aft-berth-on-280DA
It could also be coming in one of the port lights. Those gaskets have been known to leak. Could also be rub rail. You will probably have to get a water hose and case of beer and start troubleshooting.
Does'nt appear to be any easy way to change the Kohler impellor, without pulling the whole pump, with those 2 allenhead screws. Uglyness
Does anyone know what the size of the anchor that is standard on the 280DA is? Would it be considered a Delta style? Reason I ask is I lost mine this past weekend, right at the chain/rode splice. I'm pretty certain that last link rusted away and finally gave way. :smt009 So....I need to purchase another, and new chain also. I'm looking at this 22lb. one that I've heard a lot of good things about on this forum: http://www.marinepartdepot.com/wibeshau28.html . I also need new chain...any idea what type of chain I need to be compatible with the Lofran Marlin windlass, and I good place to purchase from?
