    330 Express Bow Thruster zinc?

    My diver asked me today if my bow thruster was supposed to have a zinc and I had to admit that I did not know. And while we are on the subject of zincs how many total are there on the 330 and often are folks changing them here in South Florida (Tampa) when the boats are kept in-water year round...

    green "power available" light on main panel

    Hey Ron. Thanks for that thought. On my last older big boat before this 330 (1988 mainship 36DC) most of the lights on the main panel eventually gave out and stopped lighting up but I think they were older ( I guess incandescent? style). I just assumed a 2016 would be all LED and that they work...

    green "power available" light on main panel

    I've owned the boat since new and this condition began about a year plus ago. We have frequent power outages that often start and top multiple times. We blew out a control panel on our oven and on a wine cooler during one outage - is there anything anyone can think of that might be...

    green "power available" light on main panel

    Yes mine used to work the same way. and at this particular moment it is working that way - light is on regardless of whether the panel breaker is on or off as long as the stern breaker is on and power is plugged in. I've replaced the cord and the hubbell power inlet recently but it has not made...

    green "power available" light on main panel

    So I ran down and tried a few things as per your suggestions. The battery charger doesn't seem to make a difference whether on or off. I also turned off all power at the panel and then at the stern 30 amp breaker where the shore power comes in. My conclusion is That the stern main beaker seems...

    green "power available" light on main panel

    Although I have no electrical problems that I am aware of, I am wondering about why my power available light is sometimes on and sometimes off under what I believe are identical conditions. I just checked the boat - it is currently on shorepower (30 amp), both batteries banks are switched off...

    Need Fresh Batteries for 330 Express

    Hey just an update on this thread. Posey Power of Tampa came to my dock and did a great job and I now have 4 new AGMs. At first I thought the quote was pricey but now I think they were a very fair price given that they delivered on every aspect of boat service. They texted multiple times about...

    Fischer Panda cooling maintenance?

    I have never had to do anything related to to the closed fresh water cooling loop on my 2016 Fischer Panda 4K. There doesn't seem to be any recommendations around flushing the closed loop altho there is a reference to flushing the raw water loop as part of winterization but I live in south...

    Need Fresh Batteries for 330 Express

    Original equipment units are 4 Deca Intimidator AGM Group 27 and they are just hitting 5 years old. I always keep the charger on when the boat is in the slip but lately one engine will not start unless 1+2 banks combined (same with energy to bow thruster) so I'm going to replace them all. They...

    330 windshield wiper washer tank?

    Of course you guys are right. I should have realized it draws from the fresh water system (it did cross my mind lol) Thanks!

    330 windshield wiper washer tank?

    I use this feature so infrequently that I've never bothered to find the location of the washer fluid tank. Can anyone clue me in? Its a 2016 330 with the AV2 hardtop which has one big wiper in the middle of the single big windscreen. The washer fluid hosebarb comes thru the hull a couple inches...

    Replacing Breaker in main cabin panel 330 express

    The ac/heat unit is located under the stairs and sits on a large pan. The condensate hose comes of the bottom of the pan and runs directly down to the sump box. The hose can be accessed easily at the ac pan by pulling off the small air grate at the entrance to the mid berth or the forward panel...

    Replacing Breaker in main cabin panel 330 express

    I can't speak to any year other than my 2016 but in my 330 the AC condensate drain line definitely inserts into the top face of the rule shower sump box. Same setup as my last boat - a 36' mainship. The 97A box in my 2016 Grady was pretty basic and failed when the 3/4" output snapped off at the...

    Replacing Breaker in main cabin panel 330 express

    Thanks Bayhouse. I have had a few panels off over the years and I agree that its a good idea to disconnect from ac as well when opening it up. - I haven't begun this project yet but noticed today that the Grady 330 panel actually has a piano hinge on one side which was something I've never had...
