Sounds to me that they stuck it to you pretty hard. With you supplying all of the material and taking the partitions down, I would say you was over charged by alot. My oil filter was hard to change as well. I to had to take the partitions down in my boat and sweat my a$$ off for three hours just...

I live in Louisville, Ky. I spend most of my time on lake Cumberland, and on occasion I go to Rough river just because it's close. I prefer Cumberland but it's a 2 1/2 hour drive for me so I go when I can. I haven't been to Kentucky lake,lake Barkley or Dale Hollow since I was a kid. I'm...

Browneye, that is the exact color scheme and graphics I have on my boat. I don't have the tower but other than that it's the same. I absolutely love it. Nice boat you got there.

I lubed the new filter gasket with the old oil, like I have always done on my oil changes. Hopefully it won't be this bad this fall when I change it again. I am still considering the remote oil filter, so I don't have to deal with this crap every year. Thanks for the replies. Much appreciated.

I did the first oil change on my 08' 205 Sport and the oil filter was on so tight that I had to take the partition off that was next to the engine. After two hours of sweating my ___ off it finally came loose and the filter was smashed in all the way around it. I was wondering if anyone else has...

I just installed Sirius satelite radio this weekend on my boat. I hooked mine up to the 12v power source for the clarion radio. Haven't had a problem yet.

I would say that it is just your brakes heating up the hubs when you slow down. I have disc surge brakes on my trailer and when I stop at a gas station, I can feel the hubs and they will be warm sometimes and sometimes they will be a little to warm to hold on to. So I would say it just depends...

I have a 08' 205 sport with the 5.0L V8 (220hp) and it is blue as well with the wakeboard graphics but no tower yet. I absolutely love it. I did notice that it doesn't look like you have a transom mounted stereo control. That is something that I enjoy having on mine because I don't have to get...

I was curious about getting a transom saver for my 08' 205 Sport. Would anyone recommend one and if so where can I purchase it? Is it something that I need or am I over cautious? Thanks for all replies.

If we only knew these things before we bought them.:smt021

I was just curious why Mercruiser would not install the remote oil filter system on the carb version of the 5.0L. It just seems like it would make it alot easier for the do-it-yourselfer to change the oil if the unit was installed from the factory. By the way, I have a 2008 205 Sport with the...

I was wondering the same thing. I have the 5.0L V8 and I'm getting ready to do the oil change and got to looking and it appears to be a pain in the butt. I called about the remote oil filter kit and was told it was $300.00. I found it on the internet for $233.00. Hopefully it will keep me from...

I've had a boat for 3 years now and I am constently looking at different pictures and websites waiting for summer time. Good luck with the new boat and try to stay sane until summer. :thumbsup:

Wanting to know if anybody has Sirius satelite radio installed on there 205 Sport. I'm installing it on my boat with the kind that can be moved from vehicle to vehicle. Just wondering were the antenna might be hidden at? This is one of the upgrades I'm doing to my new 08' Sport. I just installed...

I purchased my 2008 Sea Ray 205 sport in august 2008. I give $30,500 but it didn't have the wake tower. It did however have upgraded stereo, depth finder and battery switch. It has the 5.0L 220 hp V8 with full boat cover. Hope this helps with your decision. I thought that was a pretty good deal...

Me and the wife will be there. We go every year, but we live in Louisville. It's a pretty good show with alot of different things to look at and different vendors selling things.

Sorry, I forgot to put the size of the engine. It's a 5.0L V8 (220 HP).

I was wondering if anybody has put a corsa exhaust on their boat. I bought a brand new 2008 Sea Ray 205 Sport. When I purchased it the dealer told me the corsa exhaust was not an option on that particular boat. It was an option on the 210 select. I called Corsa and they said they could make a...

If you know a little about engines it can be done. I use to own a 1989 Sea Ray 160 BR with a 3.0L. I did my own winterizing and oil changes. The oil changes are a whole lot easier on new boats compared to the older ones. If you read the owner's manual it tells you where the drain plugs are on...

Just bought a 2008 205 Sport about two months ago. Has every thing except for the tower. Awesome boat. Haven't had it wide open yet but plan on getting back to the lake one more time before cold weather. The only thing I'm curious about, is when I'm coming out of the hole it doesn't seem quick...
