Have you checked your top steering pivot on your transom shield, the O ring seal leaking is a common problem. I had mine go on my Bravo 3 & the bilge would fill up especially if a few people sat in rear of boat. Rather than strip out the transom shield & rebuild, I drilled & tapped in a grease...

P.S. .....have just noticed that yours is a 2005 which is the later shape to my 2001 although the construction will probably be very similar ? Hope you sort it ok

We had a leak from our shower on our 260 da, it was leaking where shower floor meets the wall to which door is fitted. I stripped away the old silicone & resealed up both sides & along the bottom. I have also had water go onto cabin floor if curtain isn't properly over door when using shower. Do...

Aaaaaarggh how do remove a post (anyone) ? ? ?

It sounds to me like there is still some dampness from where you had your leak which may have soaked into the next compartment which is still trying to dry out.It can take a while to dry everything out after a leak, we had a leak on our shower sump & after repairing it & drying the area we still...

When I first bought my boat,I had trouble with mine not moving & found that the little lever that does the up/down & left/right must have taken a knock from the previous owner. It had sunk into switch housing by about 1/4 of an inch which meant there wasn't enough throw on the lever to make...

Hi dude ! We were admiring your dark blue covers just the other day as you were moored on the dry stack pontoon right behind our boat (which is on F pontoon) in Cobbs quay ! Your boat is in beautiful condition , I wiill give you a shout if we see you again . We are somewhere in the far distance...

Hi to RS4KEV we are also in Cobbs Quay ,do you know about the Aquapalooza held by Marina Marbella in Parkstone, I think the next one is in July maybe ?

Hi guys thanks for your replies to my bilge problem . We don't have any leaks from holding tank or vac pump ( the area around tank & pump is always bone dry + we regulalrly run boat with holding tank empty but still get a build up of water + it tastes salty. Is there a cavity under fuel tank , I...

Hi Its not leaking when at rest , I leave the boat all week in water at marina & nothing comes in but after I have been on a run I turn on bilge pump and get some water pumping out. The boat came from Florida & bilge was filthy when I got it . The bilge gets flushed out every week but the next...

Hi have really enjoyed all of your comments on the 260 , We had the same problem with the filler cushions moving but we put some of that non slip waffle type of rubber matting under & now no movement at all ! Its just the cheapy stuff that you get in some car shops or some chandlers sell off the...

Hi, If you have a Bravo III it is highly likely that it is blocked with aluminium corrosion squashing the plastic sleeve through transom. I had the same problem and re-routed the water supply through the bottom of the hull with a quarter turn valve and strainer and blanked off the inlet...

GO FOR IT ! ! ! I can't recommend it enough on the Bravo 3 Did mine with Vetus clear strainer & clear hose. I didnt use blanking plate but cut inlet hose where it runs at side of engine & capped it off - found it much easier, No longer have overheating problem & can see water gushing into...

Just a suggestion but have you checked your fuel coolers for blockages ? Not sure of age of your engines but there was a corrosion issue with some , think they were called KOOL FUEL 3 ? might be worth a look - I think they were made of alumininium & are prone to blocking causing the symptoms you...

Have now opened up switch & found that toggle switch must have got pushed in ( by last owner) which stopped switch contacting but strangely only on the right,but managed to click it back into place & now works perfectly ! ! ! The light unit itself was quite loose but I tightened all the screws &...

Well maybe someone reading this may have had the same symptoms ? and I certainly found it interesting reading , I thought that was the idea of these forums was to pass on information to help others ? ? ? ( regardless of when the thread started ) Surely if helps someone even 10 years down the...

Bet its blocked on the water inlet thru the leg - bad problem on B3's - thru hull fitting providing water inlet would sort that had same prob with mine ! (7.4MPI B3 leg )

Hi everyone ! I have got the same light on on my 2001 260 sundancer & was very interested to read all the threads . My light works on flood & spot & goes up & down & goes to the left but not the right ,sounds like I may have to strip down the 4 way toggle switch . Also I can move the light about...
