    90s Curtain roller replacement.

    I'm looking to replace the rollers on the track for the aft cabin curtain. I ordered some off of Amazon and they were not the right size. I know this isn't the best curtain picture but has anybody been through this on a 95 ish boat that can forward me a link to the correct hardware?

    Replacing Windlass and line??

    I need to replace my Good windlass. I found a remanufactured one for $950 and Good is saying that we need to replace the line also. I read in some threads where folks have suggested flipping the line around and using the end that's been in the locker for years. Has anybody replaced the unit...

    Waste water coming from bath faucet???

    Earlier today my waste tank registered as empty. We took ten folks out for a ride. I'm guessing my vacuflush pedal got stuck in the down position more than once because 3 hours later I flush the toilet and get green stuff coming back up, the tank is registering as full/don't flush AND I've got...

    When is it too windy to practice docking a flybridge?

    A buddy of mine keeps trying to get me to take him out on his flybridge to practice docking at a local marina that is fairly empty. I'm very comfortable on my boat and I took him on his boat to practice last year. He did well but probably hasn't practiced since. He went out two weeks ago against...

    454 Low Oil Pressure?

    My port 454 idles at 20- 30 PSI and drops below 20 (sometimes close to zero) at 3200rpm. The alarm didn't come on. Should I start with the oil sending unit or start with the analog gauge. If I should start with the sending unit can somebody please tell me where it is? I use 15-w40 synthetic in it.

    Gap between stove glass and counter top l

    The gap (ranging from 1/16" to 1/4")between my stove and counter is a magnet for food/stuff and seems like a never ending battle to keep relatively clean. The first solution that comes to mind is filling it with a foam backer from HD/Lowes then toping it off with a cream white silicone caulk...

    Antifreeze coming out from exhaust underneath the boat??

    This is is my first year winterizing my engines on my own and I thought the antifreeze was supposed to come out of the side exhaust but very little did. I put 4 gallons into each engine via the sea strainers and most of it came out from what I'm guessing is the exhaust underneath. Did I get it...

    Clogged Vacu Flush? Try a plunger first!

    I got pumped out on Saturday. I used the head a few times afterwards and turned the system off on Sunday because I thought I was going to be gone until the weekend. Plans changed and I came back, used the head and flushed without turning the system on again. I heard no pumping, saw yesterday's...

    Where did this chalk come from???

    Every year before I drop in the water, I use Meguiars one step and follow up with the Meguiars paste wax. The boat looks pretty good. I go to wash it before I take my family out on Memorial Day and I use OrPine boat wash on the hull first then the deck. I rinse it off good as I go. An hour...

    2 weeks ago I took an an air compressor set at 30 psi and connected it to my fresh water intake opened up my drain on my hot water heater and blew out my water heater until nothing came out. I vacuumed the water out of the compartment as it was draining. Once it was empty, I then closed the...

    First time winterizing Westerbeke 7.0

    This is my first attempt at winterizing my generator. None of the videos I've seen mention drain plugs. Are there any? If so where? It cant be as easy as "Just get 1 gallon of AF into the system (sea flush/strainer, pick up hose etc) and you're done" can it? Any tips or hacks would be greatly...

    Dehumidifier problems with Cruisair SMX

    I'm trying to dehumidify my boat and the forward system is working fine. The aft system blinks HU as it's supposed to but doesn't do anything. I get plenty of hot and cold air upon request. Thoughts?

    Atwood Automatic Pump Issues

    I'm switching my shower pump from a Sure Bail/Rule 1000 to an Atwood automatic 1100 pump. I connected the wires: solid brown to solid brown; black to black; and as soon as I connected the last wire (striped to striped) it turned on with bilge bone dry. There's a test switch on the unit but it...

    Contemplating Atwood Water Heater replacement with a Kuuma

    My Atwood WH is leaking, isn't getting hot and will be replaced very soon by a Kuuma (anyone with a bad experience??) with the same specs. After looking online I'm not sure if it has a front or rear heat exchanger if it even has one at all. It appears to be front mounted. The ports of the unit...

    Bilge Alarm/Pump issues??

    This is my first year owning a SR, my first week staying on the boat and every day is a new lesson. 1. My hot water tank is shooting water out of or near the line just the pressure relief valve. It's hard to tell if it's coming from inside the tank or the line. See the picture below. Yes that's...

    Right Hand and Left Hand Props??

    I recently purchased my first Sea Ray and needed to have the props removed so it can be transported home. I'm pretty sure I should be able to put them back on without too much of a problem if I can get clarification as to which goes where. Also a heads up on any known installation pitfalls would...
