    310 SS under steps / dashboard bilge

    For owners who wonder where this area is and what it looks like here are two images which may help. The previous owner to myself flooded his 'cubby storage area' by not looking at why this area needs emptying and it ruined his carpet. I inspect mine every three months and after some serious...

    Charles battery charger failed

    After ten years of life, but not use, my battery charger has failed. Anybody ever had to lift the engine hatch manually, good tried it is heavy even with two people.

    Bilge pump failure

    My Sunsport 310 (MY 2007) decided today to really foul up boating plans. The bilge pump failed as a seacock sprung a leak, after the detailer failed to fully tighten up the fastener to the sea strainer. Much bailing by hand in Dunedin Marina and four full wet and dry vacuum containers worth and...
