  1. Help with bleeding steering 58LRC

    We are on our maiden voyage from Portsmouth, VA - south. Prior to leaving the yard replaced a section of bad hose on the hydraulic steering system section in the lazarette. It appears they did not bleed the system fully and we are having some issue with steering the boat. Can anyone help? ...

  2. Anyone rigged for a second anchor?

    The majority of large cruising sailboats I've owned have had dual anchor rollers, but I've never seen this setup on a Hatteras. Is anyone using more than one anchor and if so, how do you configure for that? I have a large plow anchor currently installed on the roller, but would like to be able...

  3. Hose on older boats

    Considering the purchase an older Hat (1970's era) and started to think about all the systems, etc. that will need to be replaced. One item I just thought about are the hoses, particularly those that don't have a seacock, such as the exhaust hoses. Do these fail? Do they need to be replaced? ...

  4. Engine stalls, fuel issue Detroit 4-71. Simple troubleshooting?

    I had a man working over on the port side of my engine room this week and he was "crammed" in the area where the fuel lines come off the Floscan Homogenators/Pulse Dampers and connect over to the fuel pump. The motor has been running perfectly up to that point, but today when I started it to...

  5. Exhaust Blankets - 58LRC, a few questions

    Does anyone know if the exhaust blankets in the attached photos would be the original for these engines? Do they contain asbestos? They are in overall decent shape except for one side where the cloth is worn out from running against people squeezing by. Is there a fiberglass tape or other...

  6. Alternator questions

    We are learning a lot about our new 58LRC, including some things that are not working. No surprise on a used boat, but it is frustrating that some of these tings were missed by the "engine" surveyor, despite my specifically asking for these items to be checked. One issue I discovered is a 24V...

  7. 58LRC - New owner, pending survey.

    After searching and looking at several 58LRC's I have decided to move forward and purchase one of these fantastic older vessels. Pending successful survey (in a few weeks), we look to take ownership by the end of September. I've already spent the better part of a full day going through her,...

  8. Strange issue, tripping 240V GFI

    Today, out of nowhere, one of my 240VAC HVAC systems started tripping the GFI every time I turn it on. Trips, even if I just turn to "START" without running the compressor. All of my (four) HVAC systems a connected to this same breaker/GFI in the pilothouse (58LRC). Only the salon HVAC trips...

  9. Scott B, saved my butt again.

    Yesterday, we were out on the hook for the 1st time in a few months (a number of repairs and upgrades being done) and had an issue with my Victron Multiplus not charging properly. About 3 weeks ago, I had updated the Firmware on the Cerbo, Multiplus and BVM. Didn't notice any problems as the...

  10. Power Problems with HVAC on Generator

    Not to hijack RyanB's thread on Power Problems with AC, I have created this separate thread on an issue I discovered this weekend. I have never attempted to run our 16KBTH 220V HVAC system or any of the HVAC systems on my Northern Lights 6K genset as I've always just run off our large Genset. ...

  11. Can anyone identify this panel part?

    Please see the attached photo. At the upper right side there is a stainless bulb hood that covers the bulb and directs the light down. I would like to find one for the left side of the panel. Not sure what they are called, so I can't search Sam's online for this part. Thanks Sorry,...

  12. HVAC Circulation pump - Magnetek. How to separate motor from pump end?

    Does anyone have any experience separating the motor from the pump on a HVAC Circulation pump? This is a "Magnetek Century AC motor" Seems to use a "Scot" pump which I have ordered, but I can't seem figure out if the old pump is "Keyed" or screwed onto the motor shaft. I've attached a...

  13. Help with these Isolation Transformers (assuming that is what they are)

    I have 2 large boxes in the engine room (see below) which I believe to be isolation transformers as well as possibly voltage boosters/frequency converters. Of all the documentation I have on board, I don't have any information on these. I've attached a photo of the top unit and hope maybe...

  14. Router Bit for moulding

    Has anyone found a router bit to duplicate the drawer edge moulding on 1970's (maybe 80's) vintage drawers? This moulding would be similar to that in the attached photo. By the way, these drawers (shown) are for sale by another Sam's user in the "for sale" section.

  15. Black sealant between teak on pilot house floors

  16. Floscan 236C senders, can they be opened and repaired?

    Has anyone successfully dis-assembled their Floscan senders to diagnose and/or repair them? Are they gear drive or optical? My starboard engine is reading only 2.4v on both fwd and return senders and I think the mechanism inside may be "gummed up" or sticking. Other engine, the senders show...

  19. Help with locating drive temp sender and/or Yacht safety center problem

    On my 58LRC, I received an alarm on the Yacht Safety Center that says "stbd drive temp", when the engine is cold and hasn't even been running. I does not go away when I start the engine. Clearly there is a problem with the alarm as the drive temperature is at ambient air temperature of about 70...

  20. Bottom paint - 58LRC (How many gallons and approx cost)?

    I saw on another thread that a 58' takes about 4 gallons off paint, but it wasn't clear if that was for one or two coats. I'm guessing only one coat. Also, I've checked a few marinas around here (SW Florida) and they are getting around $100/ft to haul and 2 coats of paint. $580 to...
