    How low can I go with the fuel level?

    Hi Bill, I live in Dana Point but get my fuel in Newport at Island fuel dock, it's much better than the fuel any ware else around here, they pump valvtech and it's .45 cents a gallon less than Dana. So if you are in the area I would put them on my list. I have twin Volvo TAMD 75 EDC 480's and...

    San Diego to Catalina?? Worried about gas...

    I live in Dana Point and have made the trip to Catalina many times, it's 31 miles from Dana Harbor to Avalon, I would advise that route also. If you are unsure of your bearings from Dana you can always follow the Catalina Express which leaves several times from Dana each day.

    Meridian 368 vs Sea Ray 38 DA

    It was not my intention to drive Dom away and I certainly respect his knowledge, I was simply trying to compare the two boats, and I do understand that the ad for the 380 may have misrepresented the engine as a Cummins when in fact it might have been a Cat, the broker did not have the key with...

    Meridian 368 vs Sea Ray 38 DA

    Semantics? the boat is a 380 Sundancer 2004 or 2005 with twin Cummins 370 HP, YW# 2184-1748520, I can't help you understand that, but it is what it is. And the question was how does the Meridian compare, it was not a 360Da or a 40DA.

    Meridian 368 vs Sea Ray 38 DA

    I checked and the 38 DA had 370 HP Cummins, the Meridian had 330 HP Cummins, The only thing I'm not sure of is the 380 may have been a 2004, one listing has it as a 2004 and another as a 2005, go figure. But the boat was loaded, I was in it, it had a blue hull and less than 200 hrs on it.

    Meridian 368 vs Sea Ray 38 DA

    While out boat shopping I was looking at a 2005 380 DA with Cummins power, nice boat and a likely step up from my 1998 310, I have owned the 310 for 4 years and it has been a great boat. Well along side of the Sea Ray was a 2005 Meridian 368 also with Cummins power. I know one is an express and...

    1998 310DA..5.7 EFI... Bravo's... stalls in gear at idle..

    I'm having a problem with both motors stalling in gear at idle, it seems unless the boat has been running for at least 30 min this problem persists, even after long rides it sometimes still stalls. Both motors idle at 600 RPM and are fine at idle out of gear, but once in gear, they don't want to...
