    I'm a long time sailboat owner, now switching to power (and quite excited about it !) I am trying to get a rough budget for annual operations cost based on 5 months hard and 7 months slip, in coastal NC. Does this look about right? Am I missing any major items? Annual boat cost estimate Used...

    Velvet Drive V-drive shifting?

    I have a 2000 310 Sundancer with 350/300 inboards (~650 hours) with Velvet Drive Model 20-02-003 V-drive transmissions. The port transmission shifter feels gritty and requires mmore effort to shift, especially reverse. The starboard one is fine. I checked and lubed the detent balls, and then...

    James River logs, and my bank account.

    2 weeks ago, hit a log driving along going about 24 knots. Damn thing came out of nowhere, and I saw the tip of it just as it went under my anchor. After it hit, I could tell the prop was done. I had major vibration the higher I went with RPM's. Either way, the dent was on the starboard side...

    2008 DTS Recall?!

    I had a scary incident this past weekend. While I was returning from a nice cruise in my "new to me" 2008 310 Sundancer, I received a throttle alarm on my smartcraft guages for my port engine. It said returned to port immediately – which I was doing already. The fun started when I attempted...

    Water build up below the aft berth

    I have a 2000 Sea Ray 310 that has a small build up of water below the seating/sleeping aft cabin area that soaks the carpet. This is the lowest part of the cabin that dips down about 4 inches below the captains deck. There is a bilge pump below the carpet acess panels in the kitchen galley...

    Engine Trim on a 2008 310 DA.

    This is my first season boating with my "new" 2008 310 DA. I previously owned a 260 DA. When I owned my old boat, after getting on plane, I would trim up my engines a fair amount and got a smooth engine noise. With my 310 after I get on plane, if I trim up my engine the slightest bit, my engines...

    How much chain and what size for my anchor on my 310DA

    Can anyone tell me what is the best length of chain for my 310 DA? I have a winless and the book says it comes with 125' of 5/16 galvanized. I currently have a Chain leeder with rope after that and want to make it all chain. Is it recommended I do so? If so, how long? Thanks
