    Generator starts on its own?

    I called Kohler and they suggested that there is a bad wire somewhere. Didn’t provide much help. I took the panel off in the cabin and everything looked fine. I have not had a chance to poke around in the bilge yet.

    Generator starts on its own?

    Thanks for your reply. I read the other thread about low battery voltage monitor that turns the generator on. I have owned my boat since 2009. My boat does not have that. Never heard of something like that on a gas marine generator that calls for the using the blower to vent the bilge before...

    Generator starts on its own?

    My Kohler generator has developed a new gremlin. With the switch on the generator set to Automatic, the generator starts on its own. It started the other week when I slept on the boat. Boat was plugged in on shore power, with the air conditioning running. In the middle of the night the...

    Who's NOT boating this season due to COVID?

    We are on lock down in NJ with only essential businesses open. I don't think I can get my boat launched and I don't think my marina is open. Hoping this will change by mid May

    Who runs a 320 or smaller Dancer in open water?

    If you are going in the ocean and it is a little rough make sure your store your coffee pot in a safe place. Next to impossible to find a replacement if it bounces out and breaks. You will usually have a following sea in the summer going up the coast of NJ and a head sea coming back so expect...

    What is the longest run you have done in one day on your searay?

    I used to take a 30ft Sea Ray from Bayonne out to Jones Beach and back for the day. Usually the morning ride was nice and smooth, but the return was almost always nasty. Unable to get on plane, burning fuel and being punished. Martha's Vineyard is a long stretch of open water. Sea conditions...

    Re-set Vessel View Thermometer

    I have the same issue. Do you have a 2nd transducer for a fish finder? I do. when I first installed the 2nd transducer everything worked fine, but after a few seasons I started getting bad temperature readings on the Vessel view. If I turn off my C80 I get an accurate reading. No idea...

    2017 Memorial Day Raft-up in Zach's Bay

    I saw you guys on the bay and took some video. Going to the event was a last minute decision so I didn't want to crash your party. Filmed with a DJI Mavic. I only have it a week, so my filming is a little choppy. Enjoy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGZrvkMyge0

    CRUISAIR SMART TOUCH CABIN CONTROL - Can I use it?

    My 2006 320 has this thermostat control in the cabin It has been acting up and it will not let me change the desired temperature. I have been checking wires and playing around with it and everyone now and then it decides to cooperate, but it is not working again this year. I found are...

    2006 320 Question

    Great choice of a boat :smt001 I see your over in Brielle. The currents on the Manasquan river can make docking quite exciting.:smt001 If you are new to boating I would suggest practicing docking at slack tide. This forum is a great place to get advice.

    New 320 Sundancer

    Is it a hard top? Why is it black? Could that be Canvas? Nothing is mounted in that area.

    New 320 Sundancer

    I think its growing on me. I like the fact that it makes good use of the bow, but it is another thing that has to be covered with canvas at the end of the day. I am going to go out on a limb and guess it has 10.5 beam, not 11.5 and overall length is 32 not 35 (legacy 320 specs).

    Waiting for Spring - fun watch - Sailing around the world La Vagabonde

    If your going to spend that much time on a boat, you might as well have a pretty little girl that cooks and sings to keep you company. I was very impressed with both of their abilities to free dive. I can't imagine diving under the boat holding my breath to clean the bottom. I have a hard...

    Repower 2006 320 Dancer i/O 5.7 to 8.1?

    The newer 330's have big blocks in them. 11.6 beam. The manifolds almost touch. However with I/O's engine access isn't nearly as bad as V-drives. Personally, I wouldn't worry about re powering until you actually need to and then I would drop fresh set of 6.2s back in.

    Deleting a vessel from documentation

    I ran into the same problem in NJ. Despite multiple arguments with the DMV they would not register my boat without a state title. They ultimately made me pay for state title and told me they would send it to the US Coast Guard. Not sure if that ever happened. But I am also an documented and...
