Just took delivery of this boat. It's an 07 with 350 MPI Vdrives. I have a number of questions that are fairly generic, but wonder if there is anyone else out there with this year and model.
Here we go:
1. How do I get to the AC strainer and how to unscrew it?
2. Tough to get to the generator, have to lie on my stomach on the engine. How often to check the oil and what about the other maintenance on this? Same oil type as engine?
3. Boat is in salt water 24/7 in So Fla. I assume a diver is mandatory, what is the typical fee for this service ? monthly ?
4. Any reason not to run the galley fridge and A/C all the time.? The dehumidify mode is nice, but I try to go on the boat twice a week and its very hot unless the A/C is on.
5. What spare parts do most people carry when out on the ocean. I was told prop and impeller, but have no clue how to change an impeller or prop. Time to learn? Where to learn?
6. The owners maual is very poor in my opinion on these and other questions. I cant find the online maual at the sea ray web site. Is it there?
Thanks for your patience with these newbie querries.
We upgraded from a single engine I/O and what a difference. Sea Ray and especially Marine Max here in SoFLA are terrific. :grin:
