    OFFICIAL - 450DA Owner's Thread****

    Having been chasing the starboard starting issue for a couple of years, replaced all logical parts, had cat out ($$).... and for whatever reason this year no issues. I'm certain it didn't fix itself but... hard to diagnose now that it works!

    Hello. Has anyone removed the vent cover? I incurred some travel lift damage and thinking it may be easier to take it off rather than fix in place. Thanks!

    It's in the galley, but I did the same for the ice maker.

    It's the little things. I got this motion activated light at home depot, and attached to the back of the outer freezer door. Now every time I open the fridge, I can actually see the contents.

    I have the same boat and had the same issue. The repair was all done from the bottom and wasn't the end of the world price wise. Good luck! Also, I replaced the couch and had a filler pad made with folding legs.

    intermittent start switch

    I've been having the same issue with my 1997 450. Jiggling the transmission shift for that engine eventually get's it to start. I have replaced the switches and solenoid, and no luck. I must have a bad wire somewhere between point A and B ....

    Official 400EC thread

    I just had a similar problem. It was the limit ... just a bit of adjustment and it works fine now. Someone else posted not to open it to the max ... and no new problems.

    Beach Anchoring

    Hello Frank. We have the same boat/anchor. This is a newer anchor for me, and it always seems to pull up lopsided. Do you have the same problem. I could almost always pull the old anchor straight in without having to handle it.

    CAT 3126 engine turbo boost/RPM issue. New owner, help!

    My $775 Valve adjustment was NOT accurate. I just got a second invoice, for the second engine.... for $826. Very odd, I've never had Cat bill the engine individually before. Sorry for the misinformation.

    Brunswick dumping Sports Yachts and Yachts. Where do we stand?

    I wonder if they are giving them away. We had a new L550, and a new L550 fly show up in our harbor (Chicago) just this week...
