thanks,SMT

We purchased our 2010 450 new in 2011 and now have about 325 hours on her. We have been all over most of the great lakes and love it. We routinely receives compliments from passers by about the styling. The layout of the cockpit and cabin is perfect for my wife and I. The cummins package is great and I love the pods and joy stick.

Hi
thanks for the feed back. Im looking at a 2012 with 335 hours on it. is there any maintenance that should be performed at or around these hours? also, it has the 380 Cummings ( 364 HP )
is this ample HP ?
thanks again
bob

I have the 380s ad we'll. Plenty of power during take off and cruising. I cruise at 28-30 mph (2700 rpm which the recommended 90% of WOT) and get just under 1 mpg.

I would check the maintenance records. Based on my annual usage, I change the engine oil and filter annually - very easy to do yourself. Also, on an annual basis, I have the dealer change the lower gear lube. Upper trans fluid is changed about every other year and steering/hydraulic Fluid changed when notification presented on Vesselview. As part of the annual service dealer pulls the props to lube the spines and checks the torque on the drive shaft, etc. Depending on your usage and where you buy hub our fuel, spin on fuel filters and racors should be changed every year or so. Also, impeller should be changed every other year. Note I am in fresh water.

thanks again LLC, appreciate your feed back !!

Maintenance on CUMMINS diesels varies based on whether you are in salt or fresh water. A key to remember is "marine age" which has nothing to do with hours on engines. Highly recommend you become a member of the foremost CUMMINS forum at sbmar.com

We had a 2010 450 with Cummins/Zeus. We loved the boat. Handling and fuel economy were great. The down side was the maintenance and cost of maintenance of the Zeus drives. We had a trim cylinder leak and needed replacement at $4000+ each side. Needed a reseal on one drive $$$. In the end between hauling and yard bill we spent $15k to reseal one and replace 2 trim clyinders.

The 2009 - 2011 Dancers with Zeus drives indeed had problems and several tech bulletins were issued fixing issues. If you are looking at an early Zeus drive SR be sure to have COMPLETE maintenance records and have ONLY A FACTORY CERTIFIED Cummins company do the engine surveys.
