    I have made the decision to replace my gennie. I have an aft cabin, where the gennie is located in aft part of the engineroom. Above the gennie, there is a wood structure that hold the floor panels. the genie is (of course) larger than the framing above it, so I can't simply "lift" it out. ...

  4. Easiest way to prime a 12v71?

    I've run the aft tank to empty using the genset over winter months while on the mooring and waiting for the fuel barge due this week.

  5. 53' Fire suppression gas cylinder refill

    OK, recriminations and admonishments are over. Little (ahem) exploring hands have been told "never again". Now the next step is to refill the fire suppression bottle on the 53'.

  7. Wires to upper helm.

    Haven't looked at this either as I haven't got the keys yet. ;) Seller had bow thruster installed in 2018. There's a control at the lower helm, but not at the upper. Now, I may well dock from the lower helm as it's a few short steps to the spring lines, but I am also contemplating adding a...

  13. Engine Heaters Connectors & How long to warm up?

    We are in the midst of a Sydney winter and the morning temperatures are about 55F. This causes the engines to emit two big puffs of white smoke when they start which is unpleasant for our neighbours on other boats. When we purchased the boat, there were 110 volt engine heaters connected but I...
