    Depreciation.... How do you beat this monster ?

    Another option, if you have the stomach and the balls for it, is buy a repo. A few years ago I bought an 07 Doral (with 200 hours on it) for $60K from a bank. I had to sink $20K into it to bring it back to perfect. I hired a surveyor for the boat and a surveyor for the engines so I knew what...

    Marinas and "goto places" on Long Island Sound

    Thanks again for everyone's advice. We all made it back in one piece. We pretty much stuck with the plan above with the only change being we stayed in Greenport, NY one night. Half way between Block and Montauk I had an engine quit. There's nothing like the feeling of your boat coming off...

    Marinas and "goto places" on Long Island Sound

    Thanks for the suggestions! Right now we plan on staying in Port Washington, NY (have cousins there), Branford, CT (good halfway point to Mystic), Seaport Marina in Mystic for two days, then Block Island for two days, then Port Jefferson on the way back. We would like to stay someplace near...

    marine tex vs. gelcoat for screw holes.....

    For what its worth... I used MT to repair a chip I had on my swim platform. Although it was easy to make the repair, the color didn't match and over time (3+ years) the sun killed the MT. It started to crack a little but worse was the color changed. It's now an obvious repair. Although, any...

    Marinas and "goto places" on Long Island Sound

    Wow, lots to read here! This should keep me busy for a while. Thanks for the help. I'm sure I'll have some questions as I get into it.

    Marinas and "goto places" on Long Island Sound

    Looking for some advice. This summer 3 families (in separate boats) will be taking a trip from Albany to Block Island for two weeks. Last year the same 3 families went from Lake George, NY via Champlain to Kinston, Ontario (incredible trip!) so we are familiar with the whole transient boater...

    On board battery charger/inverter...

    Thre are a ton of them out there. I just put one of these in. Mainly because I already had the same one in my boat. Seem like a nice, well built unit...

    Notifications not working?

    No not yet. I had a couple other issues with my account about a month ago (which he resolved) so I haven't had the heart to bother him with another issue. I'll touch base with him about now that I know other people have had issues. Thanks.

    Notifications not working?

    Same for me too. Also, I have my 300 DA for sale in the classified section and I don't get any notifications either. I had my friend test it and I didn't get anything. Makes me wonder how many people inquired about my boat that I don't know about...

    Cockpit Icemaker 1996 330 DA

    I think they go for about $1000+ new. Does $500 sound reasonable? If for some reason it doesn't work I'll refund your money, no questions asked. You would just have to ship it back. Actually, the company I work for does a lot of work at Howard University. You could drop it off at our office...

    Cockpit Icemaker 1996 330 DA

    I just pulled a Uline SP-18 out of my 2007 Doral. I never used it but I would imagine it works fine. It gets ice cold when I plug it in.

    Camper canvas (Beige) for Sea Ray 300 Sundancer (2002-2008)

    I'm selling a used beige camper canvas set from my 2002 300 sundancer. The tops pieces are pretty much junk (dry and cracking) but the side and back curtains are decent. Could be used as a template or just use the side pieces. These are the original canvas that came with the boat. The glass was...

    300 Sundancer questions.

    Yeah the water literally hugs the window frame and slips behind the fiberglass. I tested what I thought was happening (with a garden hose) and I had everything apart in the aft, and the water did exactly as I described. I suspect every 300 does it. I'm not sure if the starboard side windows...

    300 Sundancer questions.

    Here's a picture of the bead of silicone I put below the window. You wouldn't think a tiny leak in the window would amount to much but it eventually does. The silicone allows the water to flow into the bathroom (where it eventually makes its way to the sump) without going behind the fiberglass...

    300 Sundancer questions.

    Sorry, post # 945, or page 95. Anyway, below is a cut and paste. I can take a picture of the silicone fix I did if anyone is interested, once I get back into town. By the way - my 02 300 is up for sale if anyone is interested. Will get it posted up shortly. I saw some folks with mystery...

    See my post on page #95. I'm pretty sure this is where your water is coming from.
