Question 1: Does anyone know replacement bulb type/# for running light (Attwood 3800)? Lights worked, bulbs burned out, replaced bulbs - nothing. Fuse good, switch good, rear running lights work, also verified 12V at light socket where bulb plugs in and contact of bulb. Only thing I can...

Anyone planning a stereo replacement and have one of these old heads for sale? Looked on eBay and not many of these available - trying to stay simple and replace Vs. have to rewire all. Yes, I know should replace with fusion, new remotes, new amp, and some new JL's but trying to keep simple...

So it seems that my Clarion CMD5 has gone on the fritz. Intermittently the volume will go all the way up OR all the way down. Once it does this, the unit is “locked” and most times the power button will not even work to turn it off (I have to disconnect power, ie turn off key, to turn off). I...

Does anyone have any experience or feedback with “custom” mooring covers manufactured by Shoremaster sold though iBoats? Looking at Weathermax Pro material. Any feedback on fit, quality, or material?

I am considering adding a custom wakeboard tower. Has anyone added an aftermarket wakeboard tower to a 290/300 Sundeck? The OEM tower for the 290/300 requires major work and a window replacement (and bimini replacement) so not an option. For those of you that have added an aftermarket tower …...

Lots of good “DIY” mechanics with experience on here – quick question. What things should I be concerned about or dig into on a 1994, 5.7 (or 7.4) Merc. with Alpha I drive? Very low hours (less than 200) and has been winterized and in storage for 5 years. Have not yet tried to start. Other...

Spending some time on Isle of Palms for vacation this summer. Never visited or boated in the area - looking for local knowledge: - Any recomendations on marinas with a forklift/lift for launching boat? (steel trailers do not like slat water) - Any local transient docks on Isle of Palms or close...

Lots of good threads on this (that I have read on various forums here and other boating and RV sites) and move strong views than politics and religion :smt021 ...and a moving target that every year changes. I have been running Goodyear Marathons ST225/75R15-D for 3 years and approx. 25K miles...

Going to be spending a week on Marco Island and looking for suggestions/recommendations for good day trips SOUTH of Marco. Have done a lot in the Naples, Ft. Meyers, and Sanibel areas, as well as lots of trips from Ft. Lauderdale to Key West on the Atlantic side. Looking for recommendations on...

For all those Suburban vs. Expedition / Gas vs. Diesel discussions. I saw these pics over on Chevy forum - a custom ’10 Duramax Suburban – for those Chevy Suburban diehards that do not want to re-build an older Ford Excursion. I understand it’s by a place called Duraburb in FL (outside Orlando)...

I am looking at adding a removable TV in the cockpit of the 290 - found pictures of these mounts – I found Sea Ray sells the mount/parts that are in the second picture #1807962 for $99.50 (mount & Pole) and #1807963 for $106.50 (receiving base) … I wanted to buy 2 bases (one for the bow and one...

I am trying to see if any newer ('09 or '10) 290/300 sundecks have a drain hole in the "storage compartment" under the port bow seat (storage area is covered in carpet)? After a good rain storm that area filled with water - and no way to drain other than manually pump out and let dry ...

from Kiplinger’s March 2010 newsletter: “Congress may be stalled on funding federal highways and bridges … but lawmakers will commit to improving inland waterways. By year-end, look for a jump of up to 9¢ in the current 20¢-per-gallon tax on boat and barge fuel. That’ll buoy the trust fund used...

I have been thinking about adding a heater kit to the boat for those cool mornings and evenings after a dip/ski. We have one on a 23 Malibu with 2 removable ducks and it works great. Has anyone installed one of these (HEATER CRAFT - Hydronic Heater Kits) on a sundeck, or any tips /...

Over the last 2 weeks I have been reminded of why birds fly south for the winter! No matter how small of big your toy, boats always look better (and their captain/crew are much more happy) in the sun on the beach vs. covered in snow and ice ... the joys of being able to move a boat south ...
