    solar/inverter

    Don't know specifics but in general: I assume your inverter is max 3000W or you need more than 4 golf cart batteries to feed it. the high wattage/consumption stuff work on AC but not off inverter, too much load. Also remember that inverters are usually marked with max value which is only for...

    Help identify switch in 12V breaker box - 375 Freedom

    Are you the first owner? It could be a security system switch added by a previous owner. Something you turn on or off coming onboard and leaving, based on location. Just more to think of. H

    How are the fuel gauges wired??

    summary; self inflicted problem. When removing batteries to check them out then replacing them in the dark, things go undetected. #4 battery has connected to the negative pole a couple of wires tied together. It is hard to see what is going on in the back of that battery and as it has it after...

    How are the fuel gauges wired??

    Thanks, that is what I suspect and after all I've been through with this it is strange if there still are some leads that are hanging loose. Back to deep dive into battery cubby.

Both gauges are dead. so I go on Raymarine and the tank is listed and shows total volume in setup. But no info on current level. Also the diesel tank which gauge...

    Radar Shuts Down When Trim Tabs Activated?

    If you are hauling the boat or storing in a rack make sure the trim tabs retract when ignition is turned off. I don't know if your boat is equipped with the auto retract but in case it is, note that function.

    Joystick steering problems

    FYI it all started with erroneous joystick control or rather one engine dropping off etc. that is when I pulled batteries as I wanted to inspect #4 battery that cannot be reached for inspection of water level. (Boat was delivered with flooded batteries, stupid savings) All batteries tested like...

    MSRP Discount in today’s economy?

    A view could be that in general ownership cost is going up with fuel and all but with the general increase through inflation for all boat builders the new build prices may not go down. The margins for dealers though can be 30+ % and there a reduction may happen but in that case service level...

    MSRP Discount in today’s economy?

    Consider the pressure on margins through inflation. I decided prices will not go down significantly so just work out a good deal. Boat show time is starting and the prices I saw in Ft Lauderdale were astronomical. it used to be that show offers were 20 to even 30% off msrp didn't see any offers...

    Limited Wiper Range

    I am sure you already figured this out but the adjustment is at the motor end so you have to remover the cover and work on it then replace and recall the cover. That is what I have as an issue on my 335 F and not tackled yet as it is the port wiper. good luck H

    new Grady quick connect engine flush

    I ordered them from supplier and they do work. Only drawback is that the flow through them seem decreased and the telltale stream out of motor is very weak. Most of the time I use the direct hose connection and I also have a manifold with three legs and valves so with one hose connection I can...
