  1. Tach Sender Issue

    Took the boat out fishing this weekend. On the way back in the starboard tach started jumping all over the place but the engine was not. It finally started pegging out then wound up back to zero with no movement and digital hour meter in tach not working. I was able to deduce the issue was on the...

  2. Plum tuckered out- A 15 week project

    When I bought the Southern Drawl about 3 1/2 years ago there were two soft spots noted on the bridge deck. I knew they needed to be fixed but they were not that bad and I had fishing to do. Well they got a bit worse last summer and turned into 3 spots. I decided to start the repairs New Years Day...

  3. 55C Galley Wiring Question

    Without any use I discovered my starboard galley receptacles are now dead. They worked fine last time I used the boat. Confirmed no voltage at the plugs inside the boxes. Pulled out my wiring diagrams and I have all of them except the STBD 120V diagram. I even have it for a galley down model but...

  5. Starting battery capacity for 9.8HP Tohatsu 4 Stroke outboard

    Hi, I am looking to buy AGM staring battery for my 9.8Hp Tohatsu 4 Stroke outboard. I do not want to go 'oversized' because of weight and price, so what sort of capacity should I be looking at? The engine starts easily when cold by pulling the cord, but it has the starter wired (now) so I'd like to...

  6. Outboard starting battery question

    I have just got an 9.8HP Tohatsu with electric start and am planing to buy a battery for it. I know what size/capacity battery I want but my dinghy when it is stored in davits is in upright position (90 degrees to horizontal) so the battery which I plan to secure on the bottom of the dinghy will be...

  7. Port fuel tank water contamination

    Hi, my Port fuel tank seem to be contaminated with some water and emulsion because every time I run the boat when it is rough I get "strawberry slush" in my RACOR filter housing and the flow/suction gauge slowly goes to yellow (but not red so far). While the engine is running fine, I am not sure...

  8. Brightside Polyurethane H4208 or H4218?

    I seem to have forgotten which shade of Interlux Brightside Polyurethane I need for my 1980 Hatteras 37. I used up one quart and disposed off the can few years back so not sure which one was it. It was pretty close match to the boat's original paint. Any help would be appreciated.

  9. Replacing shotgun fuses with brakes, advice

    Hi, on my 1980 Hatteras 37 under the shore power cord plug there are two round plastic plugs that hold two 30A shotgun fuses. I've never had a fuse blow so far, but have checked them both today and found that the clear/transparent plastic covers, with two small screws holding the inner black...

  11. Port fuel tank cleaning

    I have posted earlier about seeing my Port Racor fuel filter showing murky / strawberry color and pressure gauge showing issues by going into "yellow" range but have never experienced any engine issues or stalling/stopping even when the boat was rolling and rocking heavily. Even the previous owner...

  13. Porthole screens replacement

    On my 1980 Hatteras 37 Convertible I have four dental portholes which were (I believe originally) fitted with screens. They were made from two layers of thin plastic frames (matching colour of the porthole frame) sandwiching a single layer of plastic mesh/screen. As can be seen on the attached...

  17. is there need for intake air silencer cleaning?

    Hi, is there a way to clean the square intake air silencer elements on naturally aspirated DDs? I believe there is some sort of mesh sponge material inside the elements, but they seem to be permanently fitted and impossible to open and replace. They are rectangular shape 8"x30" and 3" thick...

  20. Boat AC ground wire not connected??

    Hi, I opened up my shore power connection box to check the wiring and see if there is merit in replacing the "shotgun" fuses with newer style breakers as my transparent fuse covers are cracked and a bit "weathered'. As I opened it up I noted that the green "Ground" wire was not connected at the...
