I'm considering the purchase of a 92 290 Sundancer, single 7.4 L , Bravo 2 on an aluminium trailer. Sea Ray Model Archives lists the dry weight as 5800lbs. My tow vehicle is a 2003 F150/5.4L rated for 8500lbs of towing capacity. The broker is listing the boat weight at 9000lbs. I've pointed...

One of the port hole cuddy windows in my 87 Sorrento is cracked in 4 places. Not sure how it happened but I temporarlily filled the cracks with silicone. So far no sign of water intrusion. These tinted windows are made of thin plastic. Question: How do you replace it? It looks like the...

The small floor in front of my porta potty in the cuddy of my 87 Sorrento is carpeted and has soft spots which I assume is rotted plywood. Before I rip up the carpet I'd like to now what to expect and also to get ideas and tips on how to replace it. Is it as simmple as cutting and gluing in a...

re: Alpha One Stern Drive 2009 The oil in my power trim oil reservoir is milky. I've pumped it out and replaced it twice and it turns milky in about a week to ten days. I had a look in the stern drive manual to disassemble the cylinders to replace the seals and it mentions a special tool...

I'm looking to replace the helm seats in my 1987 Sorrento S24. The wooden bases are rotted and the vinyl is cracking and splitting. I bookmarked this site http://veada.com/whyshop.html from a previous search as being a quality manufacturer that supplied product to Sea Ray. Does anyone have...

My 1987 Sea Ray Sorrento 24's windshield on the starboard side is loose and 2 of the self-tapping screws that hold it in place are exposed (see picture). I'm getting a small amount of water in the cuddy. The windshield moves every time someone puts their hand on it. I'm looking for advice on how...

Just curious to find out if water accumualtion in the battery compartment of my 1987 Sorrento S24 is normal? The compartment is about 3 inches deep and currently has about 1 inch of water (see photo). There doesn't appear to be a drain into the bilge. If you look closely in the top left...

The steering wheel on my 87 Sorrento S24 is loose or perhaps best described as it wobbles. The steering itself works perfectly its just the steering wheel needs to be tightened up as I'm sure it wasn't built that way. I'm leery of opening a can of worms and possibly doing some damage not...

I'm relatively new to boating. I've owned a 1987 Seville 17BR for the past 3 summers with a painted bottom. This year I noticed a few blisters at the water line where there is no paint. I just picked up a new to me 1987 Sorrento S24 with no bottom paint. This boat has always been...

I'm considering the purchase of a 1989 220 overnighter that was re-powered with a new 4.3L (175 HP) mercruiser engine in 2007. The seller says it will reach a top speed of 28 MPH at WOT of 4200 RPM. This seems low to me. The dry weight is 3500 lbs. This is the smallest of the three options...

I'm considering the purchase of a 1975 SRV 240 Sport Bridge. The teak strips in the cuddy are blackened and same with the white carpet(see pics). I've asked the vendor to explain and he tells me that it does look like there is or has been a leak but that he has never found it to be wet...

I currently own a 1987 Sevile 17br which I love and it works great. My wife and I are looking to move up to a day crusier one on which we can cook and sleep on if we want to. The older 220 overnighters are the best compromise as compared to a BR we've seen where you can cook on the deck and...

Hello to all this is my first post. I'm not sure if this is the right forum or not for this topic but here goes. I purchase my first boat late last summer a 1987 Sea Ray Seville 17BR. So far it's been a good purchase and my wife and I are loving the boating experience. Sea Ray is a quality...
