    R-21 EC Battery Trickle Charger Recommendations?

    I'm in my first year of R-21 EC ownership (also first-time boat owner), and trying to solve a parasitic battery issue. When I left the boat on a mooring for 2 weeks, battery #2 (house battery) would always be predictably dead. Yes, I made sure the 2 main switches were OFF in the cabin. Battery...

    Service records for a new to me R27OB

    I recently bought a R27OB. I’m the second owner. Although it came with all the manuals (except the boat owners manual - is it only available in electronic form?) it did not come with any service records. The boat has just over 25 hours and it would be good to know if the lower service has been...

    Fuel Vent Line ID

    I am considering adding an H2Out fuel vent line filter and want to confirm the vent line ID (Interior Diameter) for the R-27 Outboard, 2024 model year. Is it 5/8" ID? Also, do you have an opinion about the usefulness of an H2Out filter? I had one on my prior boat with a Yanmar diesel and...

    Propane Locker Improvements

    I was checking out the propane locker on our 2025 r-29 CB because it seemed as though we weren't getting full flow. I discovered three things I wanted to change. It did look like the hose coming from the locker was somewhat pinched and crimped, there was water in the locker causing rust...

    CB Helm seat lockdown?

    The helm station seat on the command bridge of my 2025 R29 CB will slide fore and aft no problem BUT it doesnt seem to "lock" down. The backrest will flip or flop just by pushing on it. Is this normal or am I missing something? It seems as though it should be able to lock into face forward or...

    Sponge Filter purpose?

    These sponge/foam filters were on my boat when it was new. It looks like they are two pieces each. Any idea what they are for? Thanks.

    LifePo4 and A/C Components

    I recently purchased a 2019 R-23. I would like to install LifePo4 batteries, battery charger, inverter, and a/c. I’m curious of the make and models of each that you are currently installing in your new R-23’s. I’d like to install the same equipment the factory is. Thank you.

    Chain locker not draining

    My R29CB was new in June with 116 fresh water hours on it. I've only owned the boat for 2 days.. Today, I noticed that the chain locker was not draining. I couldn't clear it from above or below. It was a VERY solid block. What is the reason for this and how do I clear it? Would organic matter do...
