Sorry in advance if I am posting in the incorrect forum ,however This is my first post . I just sold my newer smaller boat to buy an older larger 280 1990 Sea Ray Sun Dancer as I needed the grand children space. I looked endlessly and most. likely missed it but, I cannot find many posts on the 280 of the 1907-90 vintage. the ones with the 10.5 foot beam. Is it just there are not many left around ? Mine is in great running ,and now cosmetic and structural state with all fresh water history and low hours . my issues are redoing electrical as my marina pulled shore power on the lake . starting with 340 was flexible solar on bim canvas and using 4 x 6 volt AGM Batteries for house. Problems . Need to replace Fridge, microwave, stove top. . My boat is stored over the winter and I have no access. Anyone know the dimensions of any of these three items that ca also suggest low current draw replacements. Also installing new stereo for the cockpit 4x 8 inch kicker 150 watt RMS 4 ohm LED Speakers , 1400 watt Fusion 1400 4 channel amp , Fusion Apollo 770 AM /FM, Blue tooth, wireless and and apple play head with sat. radio option . I am leaving the old system in the cabin. It's easier. I know we will never be running volumes full blast and music all the time we are in our 60s. We want to have it when the kids are out. Does anyone have a guess as to how many amp hour such a stereo will draw? We want to be able to keep our fridge and pumps on at the dock through the days we are not at the lake with our solar. and support the extra of the stereo and one in a while microwave and windless when we are out on the lake. Generator not an option . Heat water with he engine if need. Running lights at night . and Hummin bird 8 ,gen 4 si hd . We only get about 3 moths summer but good sun in Alberta. Sea a has no documentation that covers this boat back that far therefore We now very little. If anyone could be kind enough to offer me some advice in the abouve matters or point me in the right direction I would truly appreciate it. Love this forum lots of great people and ideas just can't find enough obout our boat .. Thanks in advance. Barry
