IOS drives but good info possibly for others

Hi, Sorry, am not familiar with the older model, but there are some good examples (in this thread also) of extending the birth that I also copied because the original birth was not quite large enough. Some pics attached from my modification, which is not quite yet finalised, but am sure will...

I remember reading something about the drive might not like being dragged around if shut down. Not sure if it applied to the DPG drive or some other?

Hi I had a problem with water as described. You can read on it in the 300thread. Short story: most likely the Windows where lose, tighted up everything else also on deck and now all is good on that front.

Hi guys, I am a bit unsure on this topic so wanted some opinnions. So I have twin kad300 which at lowest rpm takes me 4 knots, which is too fast for most types of trolling on our lake. With some tricks I can maybe take of a knot or more but still would need to shut down the other engine. So...

There is only 1 motor, I think as the actuator is in the middle of the hatch, right? However, why the two swiches.. The 3 switch positions. Could the middle position just be Off, the other side On and the opposite side On for external power source via the 12V "cigaratte lighter" style charger...

Thanks for helping out. Attached a New pic. So 3 wire pairs, one pair goes to one switch and another pair goes to the other switch. A third wire pair attaches to both swiches with one wire. Sorry for being a bit unclear!

3 wires that have each a blue and Brown. One wire pair goes to one switch. Two swiches. One wires goes to each switch.

Hi all, Could you help me out with this. I have a 300 Sundancer from 2004. This switch is hooked up to the engine room hatch. It has 3 positions, one which allows the EIM buttons to operate the hatch. Any idea what the other positions are for? As its rusting I need to replace it. Any Basic...

Thanks for the idea. It would be for easy front access to pear and also to access Islands easier also from the front. Something like in this pic attached.

Hi all, All advice appreciated... I would like to open up the bow rail and add a fixed telescope ladder, that ideally would not extend too much out (my peer is a tight park). I have removed the anchor as I typically need to anchor from the back. Mostly I am pondering on 2 issues. 1) when I...

Great, thanks!

The attached pic might not help, but you can see the small crack between the speaker and arch. So I guess it could be fitted better to sit snug against the arch. I am able to press gently on the speaker and press it against the arch which stops the resonating. So, will try to alter how it is...

Hi, I have twin VP kad300s on my 300DA and in idle spead they cause enough vibration that the arch speakers resonate against the arch causing unnecessary noise. Have you faced this and what was your fix? The speakers attach quite well to the arch (have not yet figured how to detach the grid)...

Thanks Andy for the comments and offering to take the pic. On horizontal zippers, a colar will probably eliminate the problem.
