Re: 220 Dauntless: Water in Sump
Given the design of all Boston Whalers, water being present in the splashwell, sump, lockers, or on deck in small amounts is not a concern as the boat cannot sink. I am not worried about sinking, I just dislike having seawater in the [the engine splash well, the sump, the lockers or on the deck in ...

Re: 220 Dauntless Factory T Top dimensions
It is an Atlantic Super Radius T-Top. https://www.atlantictowers.com/products_super_radius_t_top.php I picked this one since it is only 3 pieces and getting it delivered via truck to Massachusetts was reasonable. The legs accommodate different widths and I placed them as close as possible, but not b...

Re: 220 Dauntless: Water in Sump
I had a bit of trouble understanding your description. If you are asking about drains in the engine splash well, then normally those drains are always kept open to the sea. If you are asking about other drains perhaps located below deck in some other compartment like a live well, please give a clea...

220 Dauntless: Water in Sump
Q1: should the drains in a rectangular sump just forward of the engine [on a c.2006 220 DAUNTLESS] be plugged while underway? Q2: who was the OEM of the deck access ports in 2006? The size of these access ports is about 10.75-inches by 14-inches; the port has two latches; there is no hinge. The gask...

Re: 220 Dauntless Factory T Top dimensions
Thanks, Padrefigure, I was able to locate and tap those areas even though my t-top mounting legs were a little closer together.
I am really pleased with this top and I am going to remove the stock stainless steel hoop around the windshield for better visability.

Re: 220 Dauntless Factory T Top dimensions
I am going through the same process as you (albeit very slowly)--updating a 220 Dauntless. I emailed Whaler and they sent me the drawings and owner's manual. Turnaround time was less than a day in both cases. Cool, I will post some photos here as the t top arrives tomorrow. Just to confirm, is that...

Re: 220 Dauntless Factory T Top dimensions
That is fantastic, how did you find the t top dimensions? I could not find it in the document library.
The legs on the Atlantic top are 33" on center, so maybe with careful placement, I can grab both mounting plates.

220 Dauntless Factory T Top dimensions
I am installing an Atlantic T-Top on my 2006 Dauntless 220 this week. I know the boat has phenolic plates to mount the factory hard top, but BW can't help me locate these plates. From the online documentation, the rear leg should be 59.5" from the aft edge of the front compartment. What I canno...

2006 Dauntless 220 Forward Hatch Gas Supports
On a 2006 220 DAUNTLESS the forward hatch gas support struts are 10 to 20-inch lift with 30-lbs force. The hatch does not have anything to keep it locked closed. These 30-lbs-force supports are back-ordered for eight weeks. Will a 40-lbs-force support gas support strut as a replacement cause a probl...

Re: Removing Bottom Paint
After receiving a quote of $1,700 for soda blasting, I decided to buy a tub of Peel Away.
Peel Away worked amazingly well. A quick buff with a 3M cleaner wax was all that was needed to restore the factory shine.

Re: Removing Bottom Paint
bottomPaint1.jpg A method using air-blasting with mild abrasive powder, often called "soda-blasting", can remove bottom paint from a hull without [img]causing harm to the gel coat. The gel coat layer will be abraded somewhat by the soda blasting and will no longer have a gloss finish, but...

Removing Bottom Paint
I have a c.2006 DAUNTLESS [of unspecified length] that has one coat of bottom paint. Bottom paint was applied in 2020 over shiny gel coat. Now the bottom paint is flaking off in spots. [The flaking-off of bottom paint] is great because this DAUNTLESS is a trailered boat. I am not sure what solvents ...

Re: 2006 Dauntless 220 Trailer Bunk Spacing
The boat fit the trailer perfectly. I just had to slide the winch forward since the DAUNTLESS is transom-heavy. I guess that is expected with a center console.

Good advice, that is my plan. I was hoping to tweak as much as possible before showing up.

2006 Dauntless 220 Trailer Bunk Spacing
I am buying a 2006 Dauntless 220 this Sunday but bringing my own trailer. I bought a used EZ Loader bunk trailer made for 21-25 foot boats. I called Boston Whaler and they sent me a few drawings, but nothing that specifies how far apart the bunks should be. The bow eye to transom measurement is 19-f...
