    I too am curious about the vinyl color/source. I have a small tear on our 2006 282CR and

    not sure if it can be repaired or the entire seat needs to be recovered. I want the vinyl

    to match the rest of the seats, and need to know if the same is still available.

     

    MOST, can you help ????

    I called them and now I have to call a local dealer. Anyone know where the release valves are on the motor?

     

     

    brass plugs on back of each exhaust manifold, brass pitcock or plug on side of engine block, pull of hose on water pump. you could always pull water intake hose off and use a garden hose with a hose clamp and a 5 gallon bucket of -100 antifreze and run engine then fog and shut off engine should be up to temp to make sure thermostat is open. it is best to drain engine before doing this but people do do with out draing but use -100 anifreze good luck

    Hello boatingboy,

     

    The fuel sender was most likely a WEMA but Rochester style was also used by the vendor. Give them a call, they might have one in stock. Your fuel tank part numbers are below as they were not mirror images of each other and the vendor will need to know whch one you need:

     

    TANK-FUEL-59709-01 1 EA 282CR 71 GAL PORT FUEL TANK W/PRIMER

    TANK-FUEL-59710-01 1 EA 282CR 71 GAL STBD FUEL TANK W/PRIMER

     

    Manufacturer was RDS Industries- 850-584-6898 in Florida (a great group of people!).

    Dan, Thanks for the info. this was a new leftover boat. just needed some water in system pump stoped running. there has to be a way of shuting vac pump off other then battery switch. does your head switch on your 282 12 v panel controll vac pump.

     

    thanks paul

    Thanks for input, but i did change the fuel filter. also i noticed that when i took the gas cap off, there was a tremendous amount of pressure in the tank. so then i started thinking that my gas tank vent was cloged up. i ran the boat at my dock with the gas cap off and when it got up to normal temp it still made the loud squeal sound. any other suggestions.

     

     

    Dave, try taking belt off and see if noise stops dont run engine too long.. maybe belt or power stearing pump also cheak fuel cooler hose for good water flow.. good luck

    As far as I know, there is no switch to shut off the Vacu flush pump. As Ian stated before, if your pump keeps running, you have something wrong with the system. Leave some water in the bowl when you flush. If the water drains, then you have a leaking seal in the bowl. It could just be that it needs cleaning.....real easy thing to do. If you still have the paperwork for your boat, you might still have the cleaning tool for the bowl seal.

    <br />Hi,<br />I can't help you specifically with details regarding a 282, however I can provide some info based on my 330 (assuming they use the same gelcoat - resin)<br /><br /><br />For the barrier coating, check your warranty document.<br />I have a 330 and I must use one as my boat is permanently moored and uses bottom paint.<br />Extract from my warranty document is<br /><br /><i>"A marine barriercoating must be properly applied to the hull bottom if the boat is to be moored in water for periods of more than sixty(60) days in any ninety (90) day period and a marine barrier coating is also required if the boat is to be bottom painted."<br /></i><br /><br /><br />Also, check your owner's manual - here is an extract from my 330.<br /><br /><i>"Bottom Painting<br />Your Monterey hull is manufactured using state-of-the-art materials and processes. A layer of super tough, Ashland "AME" Resin with high density and superior adhesion properties provides an exceptionally effective barrier to osmotic blistering.<br />Osmosis is caused by a chemical reaction between water and substances in the hull laminate below the waterline. If water breaches the exterior gelcoat and barrier layer, it can react with the chemical components in the laminate creating acidic substances. These substances create pressure<br />behind the gelcoat which causes blisters. An epoxy barrier coating such as the Interlux Interprotect® system properly applied to the hull before bottom paint will help prevent this problem. A barrier coating also provides an excellent base coat for the bottom paint.<br />Even though the hull on your Monterey is built with a layer of Ashland "AME" blister resistant resin, we recommend that additional protection from marine growth and pollution be provided by a barrier coating system and antifouling paint if the boat is to be left in the water for over 30 days. This is extremely important as pollution and marine growth can cause osmosis and damage fiberglass hulls.<br /><br />Most bottom paints require some maintenance. Proper maintenance is especially important when the boat is in saltwater and not used for extended periods or after dry storage. If the hull bottom has been painted with antifouling paint, contact your dealer for the recommended maintenance procedures.<br /><br />WARNING<br />Sandblasting the hull bottom will damage the fiberglass. Use a fiberglass wax remover and sand to scuff the gelcoat surface. The instructions and recommendations of the barrier coating and antifouling paint manufacturer should be followed exactly."<br /><br /><br /></i>Sorry I can't help with your other questions for a 282. Hopefully someone else here will be able to provide info for you<br /><br />Regards<br />
    <br /><br /><br />

     

     

     

     

    Ian, thanks for the info. My dealer says that it is not necessary to barrier coat. They are going to dewax it, prime it, then put two coats of bottom paint - one hard and one ablative micron extra. Paul

    <br />Welcome to the board<br /><br />You'll love the 282cr. Mine is an 06 with the Mercruisers and was able to get 52mph on the GPS when I first bought it. I have a lot more stuff in it now and top speed is about 47ish. She cruises really nice at about 3500rpm's (30mph). I don't have the specifics on fuel consumption but I feel it's pretty darn good for a boat this size. My 05 250cr burned about 14 gph with 1 motor at cruise and I'll bet that the 282 is somewhere's around 16-18...not bad for a twin engine boat. As far as handling in rough water, this boat is AWESOME...very stable and cuts through the chop nicely.<br /><br />Good luck....you'll enjoy this boat.<br /><br />....can't answer you about the barrier coating.<br />
    <br /><br /><br />

     

     

    Thanks Dan for responding back. Mine is also a 2006 left over. Sea trialed it in 4 foot seas, boat seemed to be solid and stable. Where do you boat at? We will be at the New Jersey shore and then hopefully at the Chesapeake by the end of this summer. Paul

    Hello All,

     

    Would you recommend barrier coating? What type of resin are used in the hulls? Also what type of cruising speed with 5.0 270 hp volvo dps should I be looking for and what kind of fuel consumption and range of fuel while cruising. How does the boat handle in rough water?
