Slowing er down some for a few years but need help

[Gfast2cruzrlife]

Good evening everyone and happy Easter. I am looking at trading up to a 2000 380 Sundancer that has some light damage due to a roof collapse. A little depressing seeing this boat in this condition but I am hoping to bring her back to life. I have been fixing boats up and selling them for almost 20 years to get to the point of owning a boat like this without having to take a loan out so we (my wife and I) are very excited to possibly be owners of such an incredible boat! I joined this site to hopefully get some insite on locating and matching parts and eventually learning the ins and outs about this vessel. There are Lot more buttons on this boat that I am used to looking at! I wanted to come do a soft introduction before I really start digging and asking for info, so there it is. Happy boating everyone!

Welcome to CSR, The best site on the Internet for all things Sea Ray.

Gfast, welcome aboard. This is a great place to hang out, ask questions and learn about your boat.

BTW, we have one main rule: If you don't have photos to show us, it didn't happen. So break out the camera and fire away!

Welcome to the club. I hope your first question isn't "where can I buy a new arch for this boat".

Good luck with the purchase and rehab!

Beware of the exhaust system on this model with 454s - plagued by ingestion. Unless you aren't worried about the engines (ie: they need full rehab), check compression and be sure the mufflers have been replaced with water lift type.

He said he's doing a soft intro so give him a break....that will be his THIRD question!
