I have that limber drain hole same place. And, residual standing water, not much, drained to the fwd sump below 3rd SR steps on proceeding to plane. Also, my heater sits in a different config. The connections face starboard and the heater is more aft of yours pictured. I should have taken an...

So, I have a potable water leak as evidenced by the pump engaging every 8-10 minutes for a brief second. Checked every faucet, examined bilge, nothing until beneath water heater a puddle. Checked all the external fittings. Have to take the cover off and peer inside for either a fitting or...

Ok, quite different. I'll have to look for mine.

Nicely kept. Might be somewhat underpriced but no dinghy. I still like my 3sr better, particularly with so much counter space from fridge to salon door. But, the dinette is only seating. No couches. W/D would go in 3rd sr cabinet but we've opted not to have one. We don't miss having one.

I have a Charles C-Power Isoboost 50, isolation transformer. It is mounted right in front of the generator on a stand to enable crawling under it to access the seacocks and bilge pumps beneath the genset. It's pretty big. Have to lay on top of it backwards to get my legs down into port, aft...

I have an accumulator at my potable pumps. Wondering if another exists at the water heater(?).

I'm interested in this Toba unit. Does this replace the Sea Ray systems monitor. All I ever see is "All Systems Normal" unless my foward bilge pump activates occasionally, in the grey water overflow sump. Toba isn't NMEA, is the Sea Ray monitor? Would be nice to see more detail of every...

Incidentally, spotted a 450 EB at Fisherman's Warf Marina, Venice, Fl as I cruised on by. Had a faded blue bridge Bimini. Pretty sure it had a brokers sign hanging from the bow rail.

Does this unit display multiple temp sensors? I always wonder if I should have more than the one temp gauge at helm. Such as exhaust temp, turbo temp, v-drive oil temp.

Discovery of Stbd rudder flange leak occurred on the hard when resident bilge water was seen dripping out. Wiping away the flange and rudder post revealed water coming out at the flange not the post. Couple experienced guys took a look and recommended removal and reseal. Decided to do both...

Fantastic. Makes my next ER inspection to include a close look at shaft logs and raw water line. Double clamped log, had one clamp bust a year ago. Haven't had leaks but I inspect as much as possible after each use. Looking for water, oil, coolant, fuel and busted clamps. The only water...

Terrific decor and yeah, quite a gang! I have a short video, 34sec of our Club boat lighting dock party I'll try to upload. My boat doesn't hold a candle to yours. Video too many mb to upload it says, but here's a pic.

Tks! Will check it out. Sounds like a simple unit. Boat is idle usually for 3-5 weeks between our 1-2 week stays aboard. My salon Dometic A/C unit has a dehumidify function I set for while away. Hardest part of departing is defrosting/emptying Fridge and leaving ajar. We take home whatever...

Not familiar. How does it work? We don't experience odor issues, happy to say.
