May grandfather had a Sea Ray that he had custom built. Back then they placed a plaque at the helm station identifying the vessel and stating it was custom built and designed for a specific person. He had twin diesel engines and it would boogie when needed. They build very good reliable boats. We always end going out on his and all the trips we took on it (a bunch) it never let us down.

Great Boat we used to run a Searay 350 out of Marina Del Rey to Catalina on the weekends same engine set up. It's a drinker but it get's you there quick. One thing to keep a eye on if you go over any kelp or debris watch the engine temp . We had a couple times the intake grates under the hull would suck stuff up and get clogged and get it running hotter. Nice thing the grates caught it every time and it's a quick dip in and out and your back on your way. Love the channel, been enjoying it for years. Keep it going. If your ever back Glamping Doodles in Ca I have the Skyline Drive in in Barstow, your always welcome.Cheers!

One thing I'm a little confused about..... Blowers on a boat are to get rid of the flammable gas in the engine compartment to stop explosions. You have to flick a switch for these blowers before turning the key to start the engines. Why on gods earth with all the safety features forced into everyday items would this still be allowed. The blower should be in the turning the key process, engines should not start until a venting procedure is complete. I've seen 1 explosions and 2 aftermaths from this so it must be common as I don't even live in a boating area.
@philbransom80788 ай бұрын
there is also a blower on/off switch at the helm next to the port/starboard start switches. there are two so if you are in the lower cabin you can begin the process before entering the helm.

Nice boat. So funny to see him talking about this boat being nice and small and cheap in the marina etc. I know that is the case for the U.S.A. since everything is big there. cars, boats houses, roads, etc. Here in the Netherlands a boat this size is called a pretty big boat. Sure we have bigger yachts in marina's but those are the minority. We bought a yr 2001 twin turbo diesel cruisers yachts 3470 express this spring after going out camping weekends for 10 years in a 19ft maxum sports cuddy. For us this new to us boat is massive and we could not be more happy with it. Think it is a similar condition like your Searay. And in some area's better with the layout and less in others. But in general the same size. Only we have a seperate showerstall in the head and a seperate cabin with a door in the front of the vessel. Like to see the adventures you will have with this boat.
