Hello,
Found a used Vessel View 1.5 unit and was wondering if it is plug and play with Diesel View harness? The dual plugs on the back look the same. Has anyone done this and if so your input would be appreciated.
My vacuflush system is cycling every couple of minutes. I've replaced the duckbills and toilet seals. I noticed that the o ring on the deck cap for pump out is worn and broken. So is it possible I'm getting a vacuum leak at the cap? Is there normally vacuum pressure at the cap?
My next plan...
Just purchase a teak table from Defender. Would like to use the pole mount from my previous table. Should I use some kind of adhesive along with screws? Was thinking 5200 possibly? Or should I just screw it on dry.
Hi everyone. For those of us considering a pod drive boat but hear all kinds of scary stories I thought it would be informative to have all of you who have actual experience with pods, be it IPS or Zeuss, share your wisdom, suggestions and real world experience with us.

Hi. My oil in both Qsb 5.9 engines is dark in color. Plan on a full oil change at end of Oct. but was thinking of draining a gal or so out and replacing with fresh oil until end of season to freshen. Is there any reason not to do this?
Hello. Have a 2005 390 DA with a Sea Ray Navigator and a Raymarine C120 plotter. Would like to replace the Navigator with possibly an E120 plotter. Wondering if the C & E units can be linked together so full screen radar could be displayed on one with map info on the other for example. Right...
Hello,
Just got back from a trip on a friends boat. He had electric flush heads and they were fantastic. Just wondering if anyone has replaced their vacuflush units with electric and what the pros and cons are. I'm assuming I could use the existing plumbing into holding tank but would have to...
Hello,
About to change my holding tank filter. Having trouble releasing the two plastic straps holding it in place. Any idea how to release these?
Thanks!
Hello. Had a canvas guy modify one of my vinyl windows so it can be zipped open and rolled up. During all the rain today, it’s leaking like sieve through the zipper seam. Anything I can do ?
Has anyone put racor drain valves on their bowls for easier draining? There are two available. A brass ball valve and a plastic one with a barb for attaching a hose to. Thinking about adding these on my next fuel filter change. Thanks!
Hello. I'm a NJ resident and purchased a boat last July in MD. It's a documented boat so I couldn't register it in NJ until the new CG documentation came through which wasn't until Late Oct. at end of boating season. So long story short...I haven't registered it or payed NJ sales tax...
I’d like to replace these lines on my Cummins QSB 5.9 engines. These are transmission cooler lines? What’s running through them, oil or water? Can’t seem to find stock parts for these. Has anyone replaced them?
Hello again. First season winterizing my Cummins Qsb's. Just going through in my mind the whole process of draining the Racors and changing filters. Just wondering what kind of containers you guys are using to drain the filters into which will minimize the mess and make it easy to dispose of...
Hello,
First winter with these engines. Anything special I need to do besides running Pink through the engines? Do I need to drain the raw water first? If so what's the best way to do that...pull lower zinc from aftercoolers, heat exchangers? Should I change the fuel filters now or in the...
Hello,
Just purchased a 2005 390 Sundancer with the Sea Ray Navigator and C120 chart plotter combo. Every time I turn on the Sea Ray Navigator I have to set the current date and time of day. Is there a way to avoid this?
Thanks!
Hello,
Just purchased a 2005 390 Sundancer. Boat is in MD. Need to get it up to NJ and weather is looking bad for quite awhile which prohibits a trip by water. Looking for input, experiences etc. One hauler told me that everything on the hard top would have to be removed ie:radar array...
