Re: New 303 owner intro & first project update

Welcome and congrats on the new 303! We have a '12 303 model and they are not very common so it is great to hear from another owner! We like the flip out table design but agree the OEM top is a bit small so would be interested to learn more about the details of your project. Regarding replacing your...

Re: '11 303 window seal replacement

Thanks for the response and do you know which windows were used from the factory? They look the same for many years & models but I am just trying to confirm which specific gasket to look for.

'11 303 window seal replacement

Had anyone replaced the rubber gasketing on the windows of their cobalt? I think they are manufactured by Bowmar and we have one which recently started leaking so I am wondering how hard these gaskets are to source and what is involved in replacing them? As simple as unscrewing the inside metal brac...

303 LCD Gauge Displays

Our new to us boat has LCD displays on each tachometer with a button below the dash to scroll through various displays. My problem is one has one more item to display so once you run through the list once the displays are off until you hit the button like 100 times to catch them up. Is there a way t...

303 access to back of console

I am pulling off the old GPS / fishfinder the PO had on our boat and wanted to get at the power wires which are connected behind the dash. Does anyone know how to get at that area? There is a panel in the head which looks like it may work but it is big and will take a bunch of screws to get off. No ...

Replacing GPS with iPad

Our 303 came with an old Lowrance combined unit where the fish finder no longer works so I am thinking of pulling the whole ting out and replacing it with a mounted iPad if it fits under the windshield. Has anyone else done this and can offer some suggestions?

Re: Info on 2011 303

So yes, we upgraded from our 220 (which is still for sale) to this 303 and are very happy so far but always looking for ways how to get more out of her and make life easier. That other thread took some odd turns and while Donzi's are nice enough I am not interested in owning one!

Info on 2011 303

We took ownership of this beautiful new boat a couple weeks back and love it so far but have been a bit surprised how little information there is out there about this model. This model was only in production for a few years and was a high end boat which was sold around the time gas prices were high ...

New A303 Questions

We are negotiating on a 2011 303 and wanted to try this group with a couple questions about the cabin door: Has anyone figured out a solution to adding a screen to the main door? Many boats have sliding screen doors but this boat does not and I am sure the ventilation would be needed when anchored o...

Re: Depth finder for 2014 220S

We have a '13 model which came with a factory depth finder but it is a pain where I need to hit that little button 11 times every time I turn on the ignition to display depth and cannot change that default. From where you sit I would suggest trying to figure out a different way to display depth as y...

Re: Bluetooth upgrade for 226

I am wondering about the same project on our '13 220 and am fine with the sound quality of our factory Sony but just looking for a simple, clean interface and a solid bluetooth setup. Hoping to reuse as much of the existing wiring as possible so looking for a head which will be a direct fit replacem...
