Rinker 330/340 2008+ Random Topics

When I bought the new switch covers I went ahead and got one that said washdown and another that said underwater lights 🤷🏽‍♂️ maybe at some point I'll make them do that but I figured that looks better than acc. Need to put the test light and meter on the connectors and flip the switches.

If that’s what the plug is for, would be nice to install and plumb in a oil change pump. But wouldn’t make sense with the switch at the helm.

My previous boat sent sink water overboard.  Four Winns had a "grey water" tank option which my boat didn't have.  Do all 330/340s plumb the sink to the black water holding tank?

I’m pretty sure the sinks go overboard.

YYZRC

Mine for sure has a thru-hull below the galley and head sinks but I don't think the sinks drain there!

Does anyone have a King HDTV antenna?

Or alternately, any recommendations for a not so ugly HDTV antenna to mount on the arch?

I have 7 drains on my port side also, a couple of them have to be for the sinks.

I did come across this antenna a few weeks ago. The only issue I see with the one you posted is that you will have to drill new holes to mount it.

I'm going to remove my radar dome and was going to install this in its place so not too worried about holes.

Got the new molex connector in.

A couple of my panel lights weren’t working, I unscrewed the panel and found that the light block came dis-bonded . I stuck it back on and all good!

I had the same problem and tried to re-glue it but it keeps falling off...

I also installed a USB plug at the helm and in the cabin. At the helm, there wasn’t enough room for the cover to snap on so I used the old screw in back to give it a little clearance, worked perfect.

YYZRC

The Marinco USB is a perfect fit for the dash (same size cap as the old cigarette lighter), you just have to file down the threaded sides (or the dash) as the USB is oriented 90 degrees from the cig lighter.

The ones I used are Blue Sea Systems. I bought them because they had the notches in the threads and didn’t want to file anything. It’s crazy how much they get for these things! I paid $75.36 off eBay for two of them.

aero3113

I won’t forget what this plug is for!

YYZRC

Yes they are expensive.  I have both Blue Sea and Marinco.  Filing the threads was super easy.

I might get the Marinco one in white and install it under the outlet by the blender.

I was thinking the same thing, to replace my macerator switch!

aero3113

Where is your macerator switch? I don’t have one.

YYZRC

I can't find a pic but it's at the cockpit bar just to the left of the speaker.

aero3113

The USB will be a nice replacement. Would you relocate the macerator switch?

YYZRC

I'm on the great lakes, no sending poop overboard around here!

aero3113

I couldn’t find any switches to get power to this connector. I took a closer pic of it, what color is it??

YYZRC

Looks like brown or tan to me!

I'm bored and can't access my boat as the marina is on lockdown.  The only thing that can keep me sane at this point is to know if the sinks drain overboard on your boat.  SAVE ME PLEASE!  SERENITY NOW, INSANITY LATER!

Unless someone has re-plumbed the boat for some reason (there are a very few lakes that do not allow any drains overboard) they should drain through the thru hull drains.

I know, I'm just devastatingly bored and trying to keep a 5 year old entertained - I can't imagine how you feel being on quarantine!

100% confirmed that my 330 sink drains overboard.

Here is a picture of the sink through hull from one of the cabinets.

I can sleep tonight!
