We moved up to this boat six weeks ago and are shopping for a new console dinghy - will be selling our Zodiac with 15 HP Honda. The 420 has the molded swim platform with a Seawise manual davit system, so the dinghy will be held at 90 degrees with the engine swiveling. We've been eyeing console...
I have a circa 2002 Raymarine RL70CRC Plus Pathfinder Radar / Chartplotter with a 7" (diagonal) screen and a 48" open array. I am interested in upgrading the chartplotter to a larger size, probably the C120 widescreen, but am not sure if it is compatible with the existing open array. I also...
The boat is finally running (starboard coupler problem resolved) and we were able to take our first weekend cruise around Elliott Bay and Puget Sound. We moored overnight at Blake Island (birthplace of Chief Seattle, chief of my wife's tribe, the Suquamish), and then back to our slip at Elliott...
The Systems Monitor on my boat is not working - at all. No display on screen. I have tried holding down the reset button - nothing. Is there a fuse or breaker directly related to this monitor, and if so, where? I was looking for an On / Off switch but couldn't find one, and assumed it is...
I am seeking tips for cleaning the water tank after winterization to get the water to taste as clean as possible. We put a liter of white vinegar in the tank full of water and flushed the tank once - that didn't seem to work. I've also been told to flush the full tank with clorox, then repeat...
We took the boat out today for our first "solo" cruise (w/o broker/instructor) around Elliott Bay and Puget Sound. Gray overcast day, 45 degrees, light sprinkles - typical Seattle weather (January through June :lol:). Lots of flotsom in the water - large logs, branches, chunks of wood, etc...
I'm interested in knowing how many 360 DA owners are on CSR, in case I want to direct questions your way using PMs. I am aware of Two Peas, PMvdb395DA (Peter), My3Sons and BOZ. Any others? Is there enough of us for an "official 360 thread"?
I can't seem to get my boat profile picture to be accepted. I have reduced it down to 80 x 80 pixels (under the 100 x 100 max size) and when I save it from my hard drive to the site I get a error message that the upload failed. Any tips on how to get this to work?
We picked up our "new" 360 on Saturday. :smt038
Spent about 1-1/2 hours at Lake Union Sea Ray getting the overview from bow to stern and then (with our broker as delivery captain) we moved the boat from LUSR through the locks to Puget Sound and our berth at Elliott Bay Marina. The boat is...
As the new owner of a 2003 360 DA, I am interested in keeping a detailed log book for our boat. I assume there are some software programs available for keeping a log, integrated with the boat's electronic systems. Our 360 has the original Raymarine RL 70 color plotter/ GPS / radar (somewhat...
Hello everyone - this is my first post. I have been reading CSR (and Gary's blog) religiously over the past 2 years as my wife and I have been dreaming about and shopping for a Sea Ray. In a previous life, she owned a 250 for 5 years and convinced me a SR DA was the only way to go. We had our...
