Wow - outstanding! You have a new boat!!

x2 on the desktop dehumidifier. You have to find one with a physical on/off switch as the electronic ones may not power back on if the power is interrupted. re: leaving the air conditioning running, I prefer to keep all my thru-hulls closed when I'm not using them. Too many boats sunk at the...

They've spec'ed the 600 model...

I just pulled the trigger on a Seakeeper Ride system for my 330 Express. I'll post a full build thread as they install (probably not for another couple of months).

If it's the original Sidepower with the separate oil reservoir, you should probably consider replacing with the newer gear leg that does not require any lubrication. You'd also update to the newer 5 blade prop which performs a bit better and is supposed to be quieter. I did this upgrade myself a...

You'll need a battery bank too, but I've replaced my FP with a 2000 watt Mastervolt power-combi inverter and 400 amp hours of battery. I don't use my air conditioning much, but I do get a few hours at least depending on the duty cycle. I have my motors supplying some of the amperage too.

My understanding is that it helps keep ice and the contents of the box colder for longer, but chillers don't replace the need for ice in the first place?

I'm pretty sure the AC on my 03 330 Express is the original, and it is AC only! (no heat option). There isn't a heat indicator on the control panel...

My 2 cents: I'm always up and down on the hard top on my '03 to rig and unrig my outriggers, maintain antennas, etc.. I think it's easily strong enough to support at least 1 person at that level if you wanted to add a 1/2 tower (heard them called marlin towers too). I did exactly this on my...

I had a sender go bad on my 330 Express, and I contacted Grady to get the right size. The original was a 1/2" longer than what was easily available, so I replaced with a slightly shorter sender. I think it's bad if the sender it too long because it may damage the tank! Replacing was easy - I...

This fit the drain on my 2003 330 Express perfectly... They come in all sizes I believe... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0019LYCEE/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Thanks for sharing that excellent video - I've wondered about the rounded keel myself!!

Have you checked your deck drain hoses? They are notorious for rotting out and also for being rather difficult to change out. But if they are leaking you definitely want to address. There are a few threads on here on how to do it -- my marine cut access plates on the transom.

This is the cap that fit my 2003 330 Express: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005FCI72Q/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (It's not the entire fitting - just the black cap)

vent plugged?
