Anyone familiar with Tennessee, I need some help... The admiral and I are looking to possibly move to the Memphis or Nashville area. Obviously, one of the MAJOR contributing factors for me is the ability to continue boating (and maybe even step-up to the 35). Just looking for any words of...

Just wondering if anyone else is attending the Wrightsville Beach Marine Max Getaway next weekend (Aug 1-3) to Bald Head Island. If so, let me know! We'll be there with another forum member (ankrummg), and it'd be cool to put a forum name with a face!! :thumbsup:

Calling all 340DA (03 and newer) owners!! I may not be able to help myself...my wife and I each came down with a case of 4-footitis yesterday, for a grand total of 8-footitis, and absolutely fell in love with an 04 340DA yesterday. Talk about a solid boat - Jeesh!? :thumbsup: Before we go...

Figured I'd throw this out there because you guys usually have an answer to just about everything... I'm a dumbazz and jumped in the ocean yesterday with my cell phone still in my pocket. Short of the long, is that I can't get it to come on, and am currently trying to get it really dry before...

First off, I will admit that to my local dealer, I am a pain in the azz boat owner. But in a good way (as far as my boat's concerned). If they fix something for me, I want to know why it broke in the first place, what the fix was, and expect my boat returned in the same condition (cleanliness)...

A week ago I noticed some more water in my bilge than normal (I am wet slipped), so I cleaned it up and decided to keep an eye on it. Checked it today, and it's all back, plus some. :smt021 And today, I noticed a drip too. It comes about every 2 seconds, and appears to be coming from some...

I am possible going to enter unchartered waters this weekend of having a child (approx 4 years old) on our boat. I did some searches and didn't see anything about this question, so I figured I'd post it as a sanity check - OBVIOUSLY she will be in a life jacket at ALL TIMES while underway...

Hey gang - figured I'd throw this post up as an FYI should anyone ever run into a similar issue. Yesterday I took off from the marina heading up the ICW to get some gas (down to less than 1/4 tank). About 2/3 of the way up, I get a "Check Engine" alarm, I throttle back, and the boat dies. I...

Good Lord!?! So I changed my OD oil for the first time today - let's just say I hope it gets easier (AND LESS MESSY) the more I do it!?! :smt021

I recently went through and changed the gaskets on the risers and elbows on my 350 Mag MPI. The short of the long is that I am unable to get my torque wrench to the bolts connecting the riser to the manifold (elbow to riser - no problem). So, she's just on there by "feel" right now, and that...

As some of you may know, I recently learned I was not flushing my engine correctly (using the Perko kit without running the engine). Come to find out, the PO did it the same way. Given this information, and since the boat is and has been in saltwater, with 350 hours, I will be checking the...

Well?? :huh: Come on, Gary...I think this is where Wes would want it, and you can't leave us hangin-on any longer!!

Yikes!! :wow: Maybe they're throw shipping to the states in for free! :huh: Yachtworld Link

I am sick of having to haul my boat every time I have to do anything to the engine (I currently need a new water circulating pump, but can't do this with the boat in the water). It is a RWC 350 Mag MPI, so if I remove a water hose, I flood the boat. There is currently no way to shut-off the...

Guys - I just wanted to take a moment to let you all know how much I appreciate the decades of experience on this board, and how it's given me the courage to "do the little things" myself! I have worked around engines before (mostly just car and motorcycles), so I was a bit intimidated by that...

Everything is fine with the engine (finally!?), but I have noticed my water circulating pump weeping a little. Note this is NOT the raw water pump, but the circulating pump in the middle of the engine. I would rate myself a 6 or 7 out of 10 in mechanical ability (I could replace a...

Simple question... How on God's green earth do I get to the spark plugs on my 350 Mag?? Is the trained monkey I apparently need worth the extra money?? I don't see any way of getting a wrench up through all that. :smt100

I would like to utilize two of these on my boat... Water Filter Link One would go on my hose for dock fill-ups, and the other I would install between the tank and the fresh water pump. Does anyone see any issues with that?? :huh:

So the shower attachment in my head is worthless. We will mostly be using this to just wash hands, etc, but every time I turn it on, all it does it make a mess. Is there a replacement head out there that anyone knows of that will allow a dual function?? I do NOT want to get into replumbing...

Well, I have searched every thread I can find on "props" and "prop pitch", and am not coming-up with any resolution to my dilemma. First, the facts: '05 260 DA with 330 hours on a 350 Mag MPI (300hp) Bravo III drive w/ what I believe to be the original props (in great shape!)Now, the issue...I...
