First, I am testing this it without typing a whole paragraph as I have done twice only to have it tell me I am not logged in. Probably user error...

I am looking for best choices for Mercruiser part suppliers. I have 2 Mercruiser 7.4l gas inboards. Priorities are delivery, return policy, OEM part number finder, customer service. Amazon is good. Must have the right OEM number to work well. Boats.net looks good. They have Mercuiser parts drawings. Thanks

This question concerns my 3467 Santego. The curtain that covers the rear sliding door, is held in place at the base by a metal track embedded in wood. The curtains slide on this track, held in place by small oval, metal(?) beads attached to the curtains by threads. The beads fit into these tracks. My problem is that my metal tracks are slightly bent so that the beads slide out of the tracks or get caught where the tracks are constricted. The result is that the curtains hang free, vertically, rather than angled with the door. My initial efforts to align them have only made the problem worse. Does anyone know either where to locate replacement tracks or a better way to realign them? It seems like a rather simple problem, but no less annoying. Your suggestions will be most welcome.

Has anyone had a bad odor under their salon bar sink in the cabinet? No smell in the sink. Was told it was the grey water tank but we sanitized that, still has odor Really need help!!

How hard is it to change the fuel gauge sending unit? My 2006 42SS fuel gages read total full with the key on n totally empty when the key is off. I drove it for six hours and they never moved off full.

My 2006 42SS heater was working fine. When the heater came on water came out the three over board holes. How there’s no water coming out and the heater runs all the time trying to get to the temperature set on the thermostat. I checked the CB and all where on except the AC water pressure pump. I turned it on and it pumped water out a different hole. I left it on hoping it would help the heater. After about an hour I turned it off because it didn’t help.

I have a Kohler 7.3e generator. The fuel pump is badly corroded and needs to be replaced. My manual does not list the part number. My search so far has found Facet 278490. Can someone confirm that number? I have had a few misses on part number cross references that resulted in repair delays and returned parts. Thanks

I have a 1988 3607 and would like to replace all the port light lenses. The frames seem to be in good shape. Does anyone have advise where to purchase and what part number I need. They look to be 24 1/2 x 7 1/2 and 14 1/2 x 7 1/2”. Probably need to replace the hatches as well. Would I need to replace entire unit or just the lenses?

Amazing amount of innovation here. Take a look at the video.

If anyone has resorted to using a portable generator, such as a Honda 2000 for example, on a 28 Riv . . . where did / do you store it and run it? Looking for a short term solution before going solar for staying out all week/weekend. Everything major on this boat seems to be 110V - TV, stove, fridge, A/C if I can fix it, water heater.
