I also installed a FURUNO 300 AP on my 330 - so far it works great & interfaces with my all Garmin network - 5212 & 5012

There’s a NIB for sale on THT parts forum - it’s the same model as yours

Have any 330 owners even looked at the Westerbeke 5.0MCG

I have a 2002 330 with a non-working Kohler 5E generator. I am looking at a Westerbeke 5.0MCG which is 3" wider that the Kohler. My boat is 6 hours away so it will be a while before I can visually check to see if the 3" would make a difference in the installation. As all owners know access is...

I don't have the Raymarine EV-400 but I did recently change out my Simrad AP-11 (16 years old and been fighting with it for past two years). I looked at all but really was drawn to the new Fuiruno Navpilot 300. The features looked great and it was priced and sized for medium sized boats. I...

Thanks - I'm getting a lot of good suggestions of where to look - having been behind the AC/DC panel before I recall a fair amount of room to mount components - my forward bilge is quite wet with A/C runoff, etc I'm surprised that would be a good location for the compass unless it is totally sealed

Thanks Everwhom Were the units in the aft berth visible or were they behind panels - I don't remember seeing anything in aft cabin ceiling other than the overhead light

Thanks. I'll be heading down to the boat on the 20th and check it out - That pump may be difficult to get to as the genny sits right in front of water tank.

My 16 year old Simrad AP-11 autopilot has crapped out. I have purchased the new Furuno Navpilot 300 as a replacement. My Immediate need is to locate the five major components of AP-11 (1) AP-11 Control Unit (2) RFC35 Fluxgate Compass (3) J3000X Junction Unit (4) RPU80 Reversible Pump (5)...

My 2002 330 did not have the auto retract & I keep the boat in high/dry storage. It seems that every time the boat was lifted out of the water the tabs were extended. I was told that the valves had a pressure release feature and lifting it with tabs extended wouldn't cause them to fail. Rather...

I've had my Kohler 5E for the seven years that I've owned this boat - it has be a PITA and a money sink from day one. With the amount of $$$ I've put in over the years I could have paid for a new one - but that's water over the proverbial bridge. I too have considered going diesel but have...

I was raised in Jersey fished head boats out of your area - which is why I’ve been in Atlanta & boat in Florida since ‘76

Big smiley faces on side panels, front panel too & rear panels rolled up made it tolerable

Thanks for the responses. After reading them and thinking it through I am leaning toward keeping the three pieces between the windshield & hardtop on all the time & opening the center smiley face on real hot days. I will have to see what it's like without the side panels as far as wind and...

I am having a new enclosure made for my 2002 330 and I have to send the old one to be used as a pattern for the new enclosure. I removed the enclosure on Friday, which was quite an experience since I don't believe it had been removed in the past 16 years. After removing the enclosure the feel...

My 2002 330 with Horizon 600 is 1/4” BBB chain and 1/2” line

Re: Any 330 owners with freefall windlass operation problems Everwhom - About 5 years ago I had a wired handheld remote added to the bow, it has about 4' of coiled wire that connects inside the anchor locker (I keep it in the helm footrest storage area when not in use) before I added this...

Re: Any 330 owners with freefall windlass operation problems Dennis - thanks for the tip on untwisting the line, I hadn't thought about doing it that way. Any suggestions on how to ensure that the swivel is actually swiveling?

I have a 2002 330 with the original Lewmar Horizion 600FF windlass. I've had the boat about seven years & it came with 3 strand twisted rode. For the first 4 years I had to continuously manually handle the rode as it would free fall or the rode would kink and jam the gypsy. About 2 years...

This is kind of what I was thinking plus I have no idea how difficult a job it is on a 330. If it's relatively easy I may try it - if not easy I will probably take my chances
