  1. Clearwater

    How easy is it to enter Clearwater at night? Kind of racing some weather in the gulf and that puts us coming into Clearwater at night.

  2. Hatteras Badges Disappearing

    Over the last year or two I have noticed more and more Hatteras boats without the Hatteras badge. Not sure why, maybe just a general trend towards uncluttered exteriors. I have purchase some new black script badges from Sam's that will get installed when our paint job is complete. But, in my case I...

  3. Changing prop shaft gland packing

    I have a port prop shaft packing gland that I never touched for 2 years since I bought the boat (1978 53MY, 2" shafts), and it never leaked a drop except when the boat was splashed after 5 months in winter storage. This spring, I noticed that it wobbles when the shaft turns and it's a little off...

  4. Gas Engine Owners-What are you doing about the Ethanol?

    Last year I just finished a complete overhaul of both engines and did the interior as well. Now the ethanol issue has me feeling pretty sick to my stomach...sounds like my tank will be mush in short order and there's nothing I can do about it. Also sounds like my rebuild jobs are in jeopardy...

  6. Advice on new Garmin vs older Furuno

    I just installed the new hardtop and it is time to make some decisions on electronics. I currently have a Furuno RDP-139 with a 4 ft open array. I like the unit but like everyone else, am very impressed with the functionality of the Garmins. If I were to switch and buy new garmins, I am...

  9. Green bonding wires?

    Several of these wires were left off when the boat was redone. So on my quest to make everything just right I pulled out the bonding blueprint and looked it over. I was supprized to see so few bonding wires. And also where they did and didn't go. It appears they only go to a metal part that is...

  10. replacing the floor

    About a month ago, motivated by 1) photos of beautiful flooring in other Hatteras yachts, including MikeP's 53MY, and no, I can't afford to buy it for the floor, and he doesn't hire out, sadly 2) the shabby state of the carpet in the salon of my 36C, I decided to put a new floor in my boat. After...

  14. Help painting the hull mistake? Hubby might kill me that I'm taking on too much!

    Hello, New to painting boats, just made the mistake of doing a little sanding on my 1966 50' hatteras, after finding out I should have deglazed the wax off first. Thank goodness it really wasn't a lot of the boat. Is that going to make that big difference before I deglaze the rest of my yacht. I...

  16. Rudder Toe-In?

    What is the proper rudder toe-in for a 1978 53MY and how do you check and adjust it? It would sure be nice if it could be done in the lazarette instead of having to haul the boat. Doug Shuman

  17. What's Better: Bigger/Older or Smaller/Newer

    We are on the quest for a boat and love the 48LRC Hatteras; all the advise we have received from local Brokers and wannabee boaters is "big mistake buying a 25 to 30 year old boat - especially such a big boat even if it looks like new!". So, opinions needed please: IS IT WISER TO: A. Buy...

  18. Steering too Stiff

    Once again, my 43 sx is new to me. Since I bought the boat, I thought the steering was too stiff. It is a hynautic hydraulic unit. Assuming nothing is wrong with the rudders etc. is there a way to make the steering easier? I am wondering whether simply increasing the pressure (now at about 35...
