Mine are made by Bosch. Do you have the other one to look at?

Great! I'm doing that tomorrow, see some Blue Angels...

Right average is shallow, because of all the silting-in. Many broad expanses are quite shallow. You have to average in the south bay, very very shallow, and San Pablo Bay, shallow, and Richardson Bay, shallow. But, in the channels it's fairly deep, and then in like Raccoon strait its deep and...

Great to hear all this! I asked a buddy at the marina today (Loch Lomond) and he says it's a lot of fun but watch out all the time for bad drivers, like everyone has pointed out. His favorite place was closer to the GG bridge, which he said had fewer boats around. He doesn't anchor, just cruises...

Good questions. I might also brave the crowds, maybe even spend the night at the marina the night before. I wonder where there would be anchoring in the bay for the shows? Pretty deep there in some spots.

hi, What is it that it's doing that makes you think it's shot?

I like Weatherspark. Lots of interactive graphing including wind speed, direction, norms for that day, pressure, etc Also you can choose three weather forecasters: Met.no, NOAA, and WWO, using the menus. Use "Graphs" menu upper right for your choices.. http://weatherspark.com/#

That is too bad. It seems to me to be a part of boating that some days just suck, and end up expensive. But your attitude is right, just throw money at the things you can fix that way. Figure out the other stuff, then move forward. Maybe I missed it, but why the higher RPMs?

You can look up your boat and see how it was stock on the Sea Ray site, go to older models or previous years or something like that that they have as a tab. They have all the brochures, just find you model..

You have a 454 engine, but what transmission do you have? Then you can find out the info you need..

It's hydraulic, right? Have you checked for hydraulic fluid levels at the helm(s)? Maybe time to change it? Got power steering? fluids levels at those pumps? Belt's slipping?

I can't "get it" from the picture. Are those just bilge pump hoses like the usual ones attached to the bilge pump to suck out water that gets in? (I can't see where they would pick up water). If they are just hoses to carry water over board when it gathers in the bilge, they don't have to be...

My 1982 SRV255 has them on the sides , but up towards the bow. completely separate lights for starboard and port.. I'm wondering how yours could never have had any lights?

I haven't drained mine yet, but My Merc Trans II on my 454 has a drain plug that, according to the diagram anyway, you seem to be able to actually get to. Low on the port side of the tranny, a bolt or screw. I had a guy do mine last year and he sucked it out, because he thought it would be too...

you mean power trim reservoir that lifts the outdrive ? Not the trim tabs reservoir?

Both look very good. Exactly the kind of thing I was meaning to the poster. Inside my boat I also sort of have brown-faux-wood-grain-panel overload. But I think I'll live with it. :)

Well the faux panels are framed by real teak strips right? You take off the strips. Clean the faux panels with like acetone or something, which WILL remove some of the brown color and the faux grain etc. Maybe it's smooth enough to paint then, after you give the surface a little "tooth" with...

Where I live it is like that too (San Francisco Bay).

I will tell you MAYBE what he was thinking. Usually when people cover stuff with monkey fur it is because the surface they are covering is already shot. (I had black fur all over the boat.) And getting the glue off can be hard. But sometimes you luck out and find they didn't use too much glue...

As you had no comments I thought I'd give you an idea, which is that these blowers always seem to sound kind of sick, but if you're going to replace it anyway maybe you could just cut it out, like destroy it, pull it out, then see about a good way of re-applying it. It's an in-line blower...
