Re: 2003 310 Vista Vee need a winter cover
I have a Fisher cover for my 280EC. I am not sure where you are at, but I would check them out. @coverguy is a dealer for them. If you go with a Fisher cover, get the lighter material. It makes it easier to install.

Re: Strength of a radar arch
Even if the arch isn't designed for towing skiers, it has to be strong enough to support a 25-pound radar when the boat is getting pounded by high-speed waves. So they are pretty tough.
Easy test: throw a line around the center of the arch, and hang on it with your full body weight. If it bends less than about 1/4", you'll probably be fine hoisting a 150-lb dinghy.

Re: Strength of a radar arch
Can't speak from a tech standpoint but they seem pretty tough. I'd be careful trying that though when you consider what they're worth and the potential to bend something. What about using the cleats on either side somehow?
Re: Raw Water Intake
yes, it should be very close to the strainer. You can also try loosening the 4 screws around the pump (with seacock open). As you slowly loosen them, you will begin to hear a hiss, that is the air coming out of the line. When you begin seeing water, tighten them back up. Just don't over tighten (they will strip out).
Re: What's your preferred New Buffalo, MI transient marina?
I stayed at Oselkas after canceling Municipal slip. The pool color wasn't quite right, When I jumped in it felt like gelatin not water also tasted like 15 brands of suntan lotion, the walk to town was a bit far for my 80yr old father (it was 90* out)
The next day I was lucky my slip was still open at the municipal (less expensive) so we moved over to there for an extra 3 days, 20 second walk to town , we had a blast. You know my opinion now
You have to Try South Haven Municipal some time (on the right side when coming in) its awesome and more of a town to keep ya busy.
