Only problem was the door to the master stateroom would clip the frame on the top and would not close. Its easy...

    1987 340 SD: let's talk about v-drives

    Hello, Looking at late 80s (freshwater) 340 Sundancers in my area. I'm a bit bummed most come with Mercruisers (I'm a Crusader lover) but I'm more concerned about v-drives and maintenance needs on older boats. Looking at the owners manual it actually seem like the hand drawn image of the...

    340 Sundancer 2000 Microwave Replacement

    I just bought a 2000 340 Sundancer. The microwave was dead at the sea trial and the seller gave us a new replacement. I can't for the life of me figure out where the screws are to slide the old one out! Has anyone replaced theirs? And if so, how are they held in? Thanks!

    Official 2003.5-2008 340 Sundancer Thread

    Not sure if this is appropriate or if we all even want to start anew with a separate thread for just our model years. While our size is close that is about where it stops in terms of similarity to the 98-03 340 model. Unless repowered we don't share the same engine or drivetrain, and all of...

    Enlarging Trim Tabs

    As many on this site have already lamented, the trim tabs on the 1999 - 2002 340s, and some other years as well, have been pretty well recognized as being undersized. They sure don't meet Bennet's recommendations! So, since I had them off the boat to apply the barrier coating, I though I would...
