Went out to do a sea trail on a 2004 3560 Regal this last weekend on lake Erie. When we opened the engine room there was water in the bilge. We noticed that the port rudder was replaced. One of the port motor mounts had a crack and the starboard rudder was leaking at one of the rudder mounting...
I am chartering a cat in the BVIs in April of this year. I wanted to know from the people who have sailed there if A/C was needed in the BVIs in April. Thanks
My wife really likes the 2004 Formula 340pc at the Clev boat show. Twin 496 I/O. Any opions on that boat or the Formula 340s would be helpful. She wants to make an offer.
Anyone ever rent a vacation home in St. John? I have been to the USVI a few times but always stayed at the Westin. Headed down 1st week in oct. Any recommendations? Thanks.
I would like to move up to a 2004-2006 320 or 340da. Am I better off contacting a broker to help find the boat. Anyone know of a good broker in the western Pa area?
I want to do a cat trip with the mooring. Being our first charter should we go bare boat or crewed? Price seems pretty good with the crewed charter. Is the extra cost for the crew, food and drinks worth it?
My boat usually runs around 5,200 rpms wot. However when I took the boat out yesterday I could only hit 4500 rpms max. The boat ran great but took a little longer to get to plane. I have a 2006 sundancer 6.2 liter. The boat is kept in a fresh water slip. Could growth on the props be the cause...
I was going to upgrade my sound system myself but after reading all the post on upgrading I decided to have it done by a local company. 6 channel amp, 1 sub, and 4 speakers with seperate tweeters installed for $1,800 after tax. They use JL audio systems. So is this a reasonable price? They...
Is there a hand held Gps that has a drift warning system. Also is there any systems out there that is just a drift warning system. Sleeping on the hook on the river would be more relaxing knowing if I start to drift I will get a warning. Drifting over a damn or into a barge would suck.
Looks like I will be spending alot of time in Boston this summer. Can someone give me lead me to where I can learn the ropes boating in the area? Does anyone know where I can take some boating classes? Boating in the bay and ocean will be new to me. Thanks.
My wife and I boat in the Ohio river. I do take a dip in the river just about everytime we go out. Can anyone give me real insight into the river quality on the Ohio. Should I be concerned about swimming in the river. I have seen a report one time that said you should avoid swimming in the river...
I have two cracks starting at the windshield support screws radiating out toward the windshield aprox 7" long in the gel coat on the dash. I tried to post pictures but had trouble with that. I took delivery of our 260da around april 15 2007. How long is the warranty period for this? I got two...
Well it's time to secure our dock space for this summer. Last year we backed into our slip. The wind almost always blows down river but sometimes we get a strong wind from the south blowing up river. So most time the breeze and current worked in our favor pushng us toward the dock while backing...
Finished my first year of boating. The cost of boating was right where i figured it would be. It was a good year here in western Pa. I have a 2006 260 da 6.2L. Running the boat, trim tabs and docking took a little time to get use to, but it all fell into place. The people at the docks were the...
What is the best way to give the stereo sound system a boost. I don't want this to be a major project just an upgrade to my current sound system. Clarion Cmd4 2006 260da.
I have a 260 sd with the 6.2 liter. My question is when I start out do I need to have my trim tabs down to get up on plane or can I start with them up and adjust as needed for listing. I find it easier to start with them up and then adjust. I know i need to have the stern drive trimmed down...
When I went down to pick up my new 260da I saw there was a leak under the sink I told the dealer about this and they said they would fix it. I went down to the dock the next day so my wife and I could spend the weekend on our new boat. When my wife stepped down below she stepped into a puddle of...
