  1. Port stuffing box on Hatteras 40DC

    Closing on our "new to us" Hatteras 40DC early next week. One of the first things we will address is the port side stuffing box. There is a fair amount of corrosion around it, to the extent that it could not be observed during survey. The mechanic that works on the boat wants to just do an acid...

  2. Gas Explosion in Muffler

    We finally got our boat ready to fish, so I took the family down to the boat to clean her up and meet a carb guy to adjust the ratios on the Rochester's (they were running a bit rich after a recent rebuilds). I was starting up the stbd engine to warm her up and, mistakenly, gave it one too many...

  3. Hynautic H42-04 steering helm drawings

    G'day HOF members, I'm trying to locate some detailed drawings of a Hynautic helm pump, model H42-04.

  4. Village Marine Water Maker

    The circuit board on my Village Marine Water Maker seems to have died. The screen will not respond. Villlage Marine says they don't make those circuit boards anymore. Does anyone (i) know of a work around; or (ii) have a used one? Thanks Bruce Freestyle 1986 62cpmy (54MY with ext)

  5. Rust on stainless (cleats, fittings, etc)

    I've used Colinite Metal polish on some of the stainless fittings on the front deck (cleats, etc). They looked great for a few weeks but are not starting show moderate surface rusting. The fittings I didn't clean are still fine, although they could use cleaning. Is there something I should...

  6. Out with the old......

    Yanked the 4 8V batteries (one with a bad cell) out today. They actually were not as heavy as I thought they would be, which means there's less lead in there which means they were not the best and that's why they only lasted 4 years. (Plus the murderous charging profile compliments of the Sentry)...

  7. Generator fuel line pickup

    1973 38’ FBDC - Is the generator fuel line pickup in the port tank higher than the engine pickup? The generator is not getting fuel from a tank with about 1/4 full. Engines work fine.

  8. Captain Billy Black and his 50 Hatteras

    I randomly found this YouTube video about Captain Billy Black who was the ‘house’ captain for almost 30 years at Walker’s Cay in the Bahamas. One thing that really stood out is that he repowered from the original 8V71’s after 60,000 hours (not a typo) which he estimates as 600,000 nautical miles! ...

  9. Adding 3rd 30 amp service

    I am in the process of enclosing the aft deck so it can be air conditioned. It will only be used while at the dock. The current AC inlet powers 2 self contained (16K ,9K) units. Pedestal setup is 50 splitter into 2 30amp and it has an unused 30 amp socket. Can I just run a separate 30amp cord...

  10. 70 Motoryacht - Mechanicals under the Floor

    I am in the process of searching for a new used Hatteras MY in the 60-70 range and have inspected several already, all of which were late 1980s boats. We love the layouts, old classic lines, and of course the quality of construction these boats have. My concern on all them so far has been...

    I am converting my holding tanks from aux fuel tanks back into holding tanks. This has been a challenge but the good new is NO SMELL. I have 2 small 2 1/2" red canisters of sort at each tank which I am assuming are the Tank monitors. They are labeled "PAR HYDRO-AIR" and have a cooper tube out the...

    Just a shoutout for the nice folks at Teakdecking Systems. They’ve officially “closed” their factory retail store in Sarasota, but Eric is still there, and happy to sell to local folks walking in. Random lengths of teak, silane caulk, their invaluable reefing hook (best 20 bucks I ever spent), and...
