I wanted to put an update to my original post. After spending hours troubleshooting, and replacing every relay, again. I finally found the reason my fuel pump would not energize. There is a quick...

Thanks for the input. I did actually find a fuse holder that had three fuses. I believe that one fuse was fuel pump, one was ECM, and I'm not sure what the other one was. I pulled all three, and...

I'll try to keep this from getting too long. But, this last Sunday afternoon on my way back to the boat dock at the end of an entire day on the water, my boat sputtered, and died. This same thing...

My 2005 shows around 13.5! I've been worried that it was too high. Guess its about right. But I am pretty much stock.

Were you ever able to get the fuel pressure regulator out? I am running what looks to me pretty high pressure at 75psi. and am trying to figure this fuel system out. I have some other issues, but...

I dont surf, but that makes sense to me. I think I'll leave the engine oil alone, but I'm going to pull some transmission and v-drive oil out.

What kind of damage will possibly be done by having my engine oil, v-drive and transmission slightly overfilled? I emphasize slightly. I really thought that I had them perfect until I had put about 5...

Bagar,
I have that same rattle coming from my 24SSV. Sounds like its coming from the exact same spot even. I have looked for the source of that rattle multiple times. And it doesnt start until...

I'll take another look at the breaker panel and the fuse board. The fuses that I found were for the ballast system. Appreciate the info. I still have a LOT to learn about his boat.

Could anyone tell me where to look for the inline fuse on my Bennett trim tab system. It just quit working last time out. No hum from the motor on the system, no movement of the tabs. I've looked...

I still havn't caught anything in my traps. Boat is on a trailer, maybe I will try to flood bilge this weekend and see if I can flush anything out

I have to ask what to me seems to me, a pretty bizarre question. Has anyone but me had a varmint of some kind ( mouse,rat, racoon, insert favorite here) in thier boat. I can hear whatever it is...

You have three different sensors that send info back to the Pro Tec module. Any one of these can send your ignition into "limp mode", which is what you describe. I had this system on my 92 Saltare. I...

I have to say that what you describe is exactly what started happening to us when we started pulling our three person tube with three adults on it. I never tow tubes from the tower, but still have...

Doug,
I did try to tighten the packing nut, but I have to say that after looking at the material that I took out, I should have probably tried harder. I was under the impression that I should...

I was replacing the shaft packing on my 24 SSV today, and I have to say that it wasn't as bad as I was expecting. And I highly recomend PB Blaster if you have tight nuts.
I was a little surprised to...

Corn,
I had about the same problem it sounds like your having. I have a 24SSV, and it was a nightmare trying to put this boat back on the trailer. What I did to pretty much eliminate the problem...

Would love to get some input on minimum water depth for my 24ssv. I'm looking at putting my boat in a private dock on Kentucky Lake. The water is not at rec. pool yet, but it looks like the water...

Brad,
I have never surfed before, but I can't wait to try it next year. That's pretty cool sending me a picture of my boat.

Supratamu,
I will try to find that thread. JonyB, I have read your posts on your Boatmate Trailer adventure. I looks like you got yours all figured out.
Thanks for the info to all that...

Yes, I did buy this boat in NY. It was worth the drive. I love everything about it, except putting it back on the trailer. I just wish that I had a little more summer left. I don't have another day...

steep ramps are about the only option that we have where I regularly boat, so I guess that backing a little deeper is my best solution for right know. This late in the season though, our ramps are...

I'm looking for some suggestions on how to make the loading process go a little smoother for our 24SSV. I have to say that I love everything about this boat, except for loading it back on the...

Is there an upgrade to the stock pump that would provide better reliability? This has to be a fairly common occurence.

Truly appreiate the input. I guess that I will keep towing with the overs on. I have a couple of the snaps on the bow over that have pulled out, but I think I can fix them. The workout balls are a...
