300DB Thread

Time for a little maintenance. I had the boat yard put on a fresh coat of bottom paint and replace my underwater lights. They did a thorough inspection of the bottom and running gear also. No blisters or water intrusion anywhere, everything checked out ship shape :thumbsup:

Very nice! What option do you NOT have on that boat???

Well, I guess Ill jump in here now too!

I picked up an 85 300DB, twin 270 HP crusaders, dual stations, no genny, no heat/ac but it does have the vacuflush head.

Shes old, and a bit neglected, but structurally solid. I will be going through her in the coming months with progress on her.

Currently on the slate for this season, soda blast the hull, FULL tune ups, carb rebuilds, both starters and alternators will be re-maned or replaced. All hoses except for the exhaust as they were recently replaced. Followed by all all new electronics.

Don...... do you have any close up pics of your bridge enclosure looking to get one made wanted a few ideas. Looks like you have a single panel centered on helm which is what I want as I want a glass insert for wiper.
