Refreshing here... considering the a new 270sdx - We really like the dune classic look, but agree that it will be too hot - don't want to take that chance, and be sorry... Prefer the stone over the ivory. Opinion: Will the stone be noticeably cooler than the dune? Thanks and be safe out there.

Thanks for search info. Not a confidence builder right now :-(

Thank you! How's the build quality then and how about now? Hard to find these to even look at, much less trial.

Hi folks, Looking to move up a bit from our 240 I/O to a new 270 SDX OB with a 300HP. The boat is about 5,700 dry. Is 300HP sufficient power with a typical load - 6 - 8 people to get going and comfortably cruise? Not looking for top end speed, just don't want to feel bogged down as I...

Thanks all for the feedback!

How many hours for a mechanic to replace manifolds and risers - 2013 240 Sundeck with a 5.0 MPI. I have received quotes from 3 hours to 8. Which is it?

May be better to call (410) 402-1096. They spoke to Kyle, said it was the bell housing that was replaced, not going to solve my problem?

I will pass this info to my mechanic who is a partner with Old Line Marine out of Smith's Marina in Crownsville off the Severn River. He actually spent a lot of time in Middle River so he wanted to know who your marina was - so thanks for providing the info before I even asked!! When I refer...

Thanks for taking the time to post this, very educational (not boat mechanically inclined) so it gives me an option to run by the mechanic. Enjoy what's left of the season.

Thanks Pirate Lady. Tried to track your overheating story at the place you noted but found it difficult to see exactly what you did to solve. Would you be able to message me the steps you took, parts, etc? While thru hull may solve, if it doesn't, I have a unnecessary hole in my boat!!

Ran boat on plane (3500-3800) with laptop measuring both manifold temps. Port gradually went to 215, got alarm. Starboard to 155 and held. Tried to remove the fitting at the transom hose to check for corrosion but the bolts wouldn't give - didn't want to force. So while not visual evidence...

original in brackish water.

2013 240 Sundeck with 240hrs. My mechanic says we have a case of bravoitis. Got an alarm and guardian mode. Mechanic did diagnostic and determined port side manifold heated to 212 degrees. Took boat on trial with computer hooked to engine and recreated the excessive temp on port side after...

Here is the read out as I scrolled through the display: OBD Service Soon Sys Fault Engine Sensor Engine Oxygen Sensor is not working properly Emission Control Problem.

Yes, it does have a catalytic exhaust. Makes sense. There are no other read outs or audible alarms. Just hot 230 hours wonder if that has anything to do with it. Thanks.

Thank you Scoflaw. Any risk of injury if I continue to use - short excursions around the river?

Got this information displayed, boat is running fine. No info in manuals and internet searches not clear. What is this about and how to solve? Thanks folks!

I need to replace my all around stern light on our 2013 240 Sundeck. The little metal contacts fell out of the 2 holes. It folds. When open its about 86". Can't seem to find a vendor / part number. Can I get away with a shorter one? I think its so tall b/c it has to be higher that the open...

Not digital. Replaced the IAC and made all the difference! Thank you.

I have my mechanic coming out the end of the week. Will discuss the fuel pressure test and coolant temp sensor thoughts. We did take it for a ride last night. Did not go WOT but did get to 3500 (34mph) for a minute. Ran great. Sounded fine at all speeds. I think the idle is weak - was at...
