Re: Replacement for non working ice maker
I would be worried about going to sell it and buyers knowing it should have an ice maker and it is gone. That is a higher dollar Rinker to be missing an oem appliance. I would first see if you can affordably repair it. The units are pretty simple. We love our ice maker, have had them on the last two boats and they are awesome.

Re: 2004 rinker vee 290 lost all frame for canopy were can i buy them
Canvas shop as said previously will make them. My friend with a fishing boat had his canvas re done and they didn't even use his old frame they just built a new one so it must not be that difficult.

Wecome to the forum. You won't find anyplace that sells them new for a boat that old. Sometimes you can find "new old stock" items on www.greatlakesskipper.com -- but you will probably need to have them fabricated by a canvas shop.

Re: Cockpit Refrigerator ventilation
Guessing dimensions here. The vents on the side of the fridge have a total area of 1/4" x 3" x 10 = 7.5 in^2. The gap around the door frame is 1/4" x 50" = 12.5 in^2 so that's more than enough intake area.
But you need a way to exhaust warm air from the space. Can you add a vent somewhere up high? Or maybe an exhaust fan?

Re: Shakedown cruise issues
I feel like a broken record but we had old fuel from the fall 2019 and when we went out in the spring 2020 it ran really bad above 1500. When I checked the fuel you could clearly see large water droplets so I added stabilizer and it broke down the water as I verified by checking the fuel a few days later. Our boat was docked so the continuous rocking helped mix it in. Ran just fine after that so we took it easy and burned down some more then added about 30 gallons to top it off.
