Glad it was helpful! We learned lots about our boat because we couldn’t seem to find much out there. I thought making the videos might help another boat owner…
Love you video. Wondering if you could help us with mounting the tv mount. What is the makeup behind the wall into the closet? thickness? What did you use to secure it properly?
Thank you for the comments. I through bolted the bracket with fender washers and nuts. It passes through the fiberglass wall and into the little locker that is that is to the left of the head door. I used large fender washers on the inside and was able to snug it down pretty tight. Also, while we are underway, I use a large one inch wide piece of Velcro one wrap that encircles the TV and the bracket and holds everything in place when we hit rough seas. I can also email you some pictures of the way I mounted it if it is helpful.
At 9:12 you show the new lighting...did you run new wires or did you boat have something there already? I just bought a 2006 and I see some differences but I haven't seen any lights in that area. I'm all ready to go nuts with new lighting and 12v power outlets for the numerous phones that will undoubtedly be on board.
Hi I just bought a Festiva 27 ft 2002 the air conditioning thermostat is missing I was wondering where you Source yours so I could actually install one
i also am looking for a thermostat control and the one you used in the video looks amazing. Whats the make and model of the AC control and where did you purchase it?
@@heathmathews4403 yes it is. Yes, we still have the boat and use it all the time! I also had a custom dash made by New Wire Marine, but kept the original location.
Great job! Nice to have help from the mrs. too! Our last boat was a 27 crownline cruiser very similar to yours. We made many trips with that boat too.
Very nice! I'm looking at buying an FV 270 and this info is priceless!!

I like the direction of the labelling on the back of the breaker panel.
Awesome, looks great! You jump over the light replacement. Can you please tell us where you got the lights? Thank you.
Thanks for the kind words! We got the lights on eBay. They are kind of generic 12 RV lights, but pretty nice ones. I think they were about $20 each.
Amazing job
Thanks!
Looking great!

Where is the blower switch location on the fiesta vee 270
Hello, it is located to the left of the key switch for the ignition.
So it’s on the ignition plate rite
Do you still have the boat

@@RandomlyAwkward1 so on my plate I have a square hole what went there.
Nice ogee!
Thank you. I had it lying around the shop under some Teak.
I was just going to say that!
