  2. Onan generator starter

    Struggling a little bit. I have an Onan 15.0 marine genset onboard my 1994 48’ Hatteras cpmy. The starter for the genset is having trouble engaging the bendix.

  3. Delo 100 online?

    Anybody buying Delo 100 through an online retailer? My local DD is crazy priced for the old delvac at $45 per gallon. Oriellys auto parts at $25 seems the best game in town for gallons but I'd prefer 5 gallon pails. BTW just fueled from a truck with offroad at 3.77 gallon, not bad.

  6. New Props - Michigan DQX

    I am thinking about pulling the trigger on some new Michigan DQX’s, I have done some reading and everybody seems to love them on other boating forums, but none of them are Hatteras owners.

    Getting ready for our trips I figured I’d change the generator pump out for a new one I bought a year or two ago so we start out fresh. Start up yesterday to test and all is good.
