The time has come for us to move up to a larger boat. This boat has been an absolute dream to own and I'm sure the next owner will feel the same. She's been properly maintained, detailed twice yearly and thoroughly washed after every use. My wife and I are both freaks when it comes to these...

Kohler 7.3E had issues starting, found the battery to be basically dead. Jumped the battery and the genny fires right up. I check to see if the battery is being charged by the genny and Im getting all kinds of crazy readings on the volt meter. Im assuming the battery is beyond dead and hence the...

As stated Im having generator issues. 2004 Kohler 7.3E. Starts fine runs fine for 10 minutes or so then shuts off with alarm on. Has great water flow when running and is putting out plenty of juice. I definitely feel its a bad sensor that's shutting it down. I cant for the life of me find a...

Need help with my 8.1s!! I've posted this on the 380 board and now I'm reaching out to all. After running for an hour or so, and after coming off of plane, my port engine starts this weird surging thing. The alarm will sound momentarily and eventually the TPS1 No Adapt code will flash on the...

I'm surprised this conversation hasn't started yet, unless I missed it. I'm thinking, with gas prices on land between $1.95 and $2 per gallon, we should be somewhere around $3 at the dock by the time spring comes. That being said, we would still be about $1 less per gallon then last year so I...

So here's the situation.. I have a 2004 380 Sun Dancer with twin 8.1ls. The boat just turned 500 hours and has been meticulously maintained. Over the past couple of outings, after running at speed (~25 MPH @ 3250 rpms), when I come down off of plane and the engines are at idle, 750rpms, the port...

I know there has been a lot of talk about this but I'm hopeful that something new has come up. Has anyone replaced their own cable and if so where did they find the replacement cable. I really don't want to replace the entire unit just for a bad cable. Tim

This unit came on a boat that I just purchased and I have no use for it. Looking to raise some money to fund a new dink. The system was installed about 6 months ago and is in perfect working condition and is still covered under the factory warranty. It comes with all the factory parts as well as...

Does anyonehave any experience with one of these? Looks like a great price. http://baltimore.craigslist.org/boa/3710097967.html Tim

So as my sig shows I have a '97 330 Da with factory original 454s and V drives. Im being told I need to install 3in riser extensions to avoid water ingestion. Im a bit confused since the boat has almost 700 hours and never a problem. Do I need them and if so whats entailed in the installation...

I was wondering if anyone has a solution for an aft sun shade aside from a camper canvas and a hard top. Im thinking of talking to a canvas shop to see if they can just fabricate a rear shade that zips to the small factory rear bimini and is supported by removable polls. Any ideas/pictures of...
