I can when next I go to the boat. But it is really simple. Location of new VHF is at starbord wall in front of throttle controls. Antenna connector is located behind the wall coming from the arch.

Here is the replacement.

How’s it going everyone, looking at a 2004 390 DA what standard 8.1’s.. how did these push the boat with say 6 to 8 people and full tanks of fuel? Also, this will be the largest boat I’ve ever had, I’m pretty experienced with outboard powered boats but rarely run a full inboard (I occasionally run the old coast guard 41' UTBs at work) are these difficult to maneuver around the dock without a bow thruster? Tia!

Finally got around to finishing my new cockpit table for my 2000. Only took 2.5 months haha. Turned out pretty good for $180 all in.

Joining the club, brought her home last week and will have her in the water for a ~2.5 weeks before hibernation occurs in Michigan. Pretty amazing upgrade from our 320, quite humbly surprised at how much easier she is to move around in close quarters in a marina. But wow, if you don't trim her up, she blasts the windshield like crazy with water while on plane.

Looking for help the door stop / latch for the door into the cabin has a small spring on it, mine broke, now the finger doesn't clamp down on the catch mounted on the door. Does anyone know if I can source the entire part or how to replace the spring? Photo attached.

This one doesn't look like the right size but maybe you can find a way to adapt it or use parts of it.

Can you post photos of the install? Did it fit nicely into the existing holes?

 

[Christopher Carter]

Everything fits nicely in existing holes. I did have to cut some holes in cockpit around seating area to add a couple speakers. I’ll post a few pics when I’m down at the yacht tomorrow.

Did you get one of the fusions that will integrate into a NMEA2000 network?

JL Audio speakers installed. I switched out all of cockpits speakers including the sub and added two extra speakers in seating area. I had to cut 6 inch wholes and run speaker wires.

I sure did. I have the Fusion MS-UD755 and remote. I also upgraded all the interior lighting to LED

I can't really tell from that photo but where is that sub located in the cockpit?

I'm sorry I didn't include the sub in my pics. It's actually located on the right side behinds captains seat.. 04 390 SD

That looked like a sub in the photo by your foot but it must be a component speaker? I am going to add a sub on the companion seat pedestal next to the fire extinguisher, that seems to be a common location people add them to on these boats.

 

[Christopher Carter]

Yeah I was going to do same but ended up replacing the factory one. This speaker is a 6.5 inch. I cut a hole as you enter cockpit from dock to the left in the step that sits on port side. I’ll get better pics later today when I’m down on the yacht

 

[Jmac572]

Has anyone had their 390 weighed? I am having an issue with my marina... They are claiming the boat is weighing in at 25,000 pounds but Sea Ray says dry weight is just shy of 20,000... Fuel tanks are half full, the only thing I can think is the weight Sea Ray lists doesn't include engines/batteries/genset, which I suppose could push it up over 24,000 pounds with fuel/water/gear

I also installed a 40 inch tv in cockpit on port side. I unhooked the 24 inch behind the captains seat as I felt it’s a poor location if got guests aboard and seated it’s hard to see and use seating. Pic below
