Before I put the boat in the water I tested the trim tabs on both sides,and they went all the way up and all the way down. Go to the boat today and starboard side looks like milk inside the reservoir. Clearly getting water in there. I imagine I need to replace some wore out seals.How will this...
Just had the boat shop replace my dual throttle base and cover on my 340.I also asked them to sync the outdrives. Did they need to run the motors with water muffs to do so? I forgot to ask them that question.
So I just waxed my boat.What product should I wash it with throughout the season. I do not want to strip the wax.I plan to use the Woody’s after I wash it.
What would be the correct sealant to seal between my arch and the side of my boat?And what about to re-bed my porthole windows and my hatch covers?I see 3M offers a couple of good products, 4200, but it’s not UV resistant and then 4000 and it is UV resistant.What about other brands? Any idea...
I understand this is an old thread. I was just wondering if my 1999 340 Sundancer is cored below the rub rail or is solid fiberglass? I do know above the rub rail is cord. Great boat just wondering
Helping a buddy this weekend do some repairs on his 99 270 DA and we found some water intrusion around the anchor chain safety lanyard base that through bolts onto the deck. The rot has worked its way back about 7 inchs to port. We were able to dig it all out to solid plywood.We did verify...
I currently have Binnacle Mercury dual I/O throttle controls. And what I believe to be GEN one new throttle and shift cables.Installed two years ago. My question is is I’d like to go with a more updated throttle control. I have spent a boatload of money remodeling the entire dash, gauges...
M Prod, What else can you councel me on to purchase while I am purchasing these OEM exhaust manifolds and risers? Probably purchase all new hardware? Also what about any thing else that comes to mind? Thanks for your time man
I kind of look at it this way. An airplane without maintenance records is 100% worthless. A boat without maintenance records is worth less. Don’t ever skimp on maintenance or parts and keep a log in a manila file so when you want to sell your boat everything is documented.
On my port engine and on the port side, I Sometimes get little spray. Sometimes it does it sometimes it doesn’t. I’m assuming that the exhaust manifold has a small crack in it so…I will replace the exhaust manifolds.I would imagine the risers are probably just fine. Yes it’s always been a...
I have a 1999 340 Sundancer 7.4 MPI with bravo one outdrive’s fresh water boat. I was hoping somebody could chime in and direct me to the proper OEM exhaust manifolds for this fine boat?Thank you gentlemen
Yeah when I purchased my 99 340 3 years ago it was a complete new experience for me.Sometimes I wonder how I ended up so damn lucky. I had made an offer over email based on pictures etc. When I showed up after traveling eight hours, And deposit check in hand. We taxied out to the boat that was...
I am looking to purchase a 2001 - 2003 410 Sundancer. Will somebody be willing to share the purchasing procedure with me once I find the boat I like? Do I fly down and look at the boat and then make an offer? Do I make an offer sight unseen based on what I am being promised the boat is? So on...
That’s good to know as I start this new adventure. So is what you’re saying is I need to look at 2001 2002 2003 models? Would it be wise to post a boat wanted ad in the classifieds here on CSR?
