  2. A Sticky Problem

    Hi, a little help from the experts needed. Can someone tell me how to dismantle the faucets (taps to us limeys) as fitted in the heads in our 42 LRC. One of the hot water faucets has no flow - needs a new washer I think - but I can't work out how to take it apart for a little TLC. Thanks in...

  3. How many of you cover your boat during winter?

    With couple of leaking window seals and usual torrential rains here in Vancouver especially during most recent pineapple express I am musing the idea of covering my boat with a full winter cover. Our winters are typically mild (around 40 degrees) but stupid rainy. It washes off all protection...

  4. What do you think of ice blue or fighting lady yellow

    What do you guys think of ice blue or fighting lady yellow for a hull color on a 55? Do you think I am reducing resale value (its a 1987 55 C)? Thanks TG

  6. In dager of losing a Naiad stabilizer fin ?

    During my last hauldout I noticed that my port stabilizer is completly free. i can move it without effort and does not move the hydraulic ram. I m worried that I could loose the fin since I belive the torque actuator arm is what holds the shaft and the fin . Should I be worried .?

  7. Replacing the Generator with an Inverter

    I've been thinking for several years that I would be just as well off with an inverter intead of a generator. I can hear the arguments against this already, but the way we use the boat, I think I can defend the decision. We are not long range cruisers, we don't need the AC or for that matter, hot...

  8. Wear & Tear or Insurance Claim

    I have a coolant leak on a couple of cylinders on my 1271TIs. We pulled the valve covers and pressurized the fresh water cooling system and looked for leaks around the injectors and have found two so far. We took the injectors out of the two suspect cylinders and peered down the hole of the...

  9. Heat Exchanger

    I hate to sound stupid but I need to know. Gensis, you stated a while back I could or should take my Heat Exchanger to a radiator shop and have it boiled out. Is there anyway to take the coils out of the housing or do I take the complete unit ( which is about 8" square by 14" long) off the front...

  10. New Davit Question

    Unfortunately when we purchased Benedetto it did not have a davit. It had been removed at some point however the 4” standpipe remains and is in good condition. I don’t want to be cheap but I don’t want to spend excess money on a davit. I’ve looked at some used davits and one might be a player. It’s...

  11. Deep cleaning afromosia paneling

    I’ve cleaned a test panel with Murphy’s Oil Soap twice now and it still is not entirely clean yet. Are there any products or techniques that will help us wash away 30+ years of dirt and oils? I would like to be able to clean it all down to the DuPont sealer that was used back in ‘87 before deciding...

  12. What is it?

    I am getting ready to hinge the buggy top on the tower so I can clear a bridge on the way to Lake Michigan next year. I removed this from the top. It didn't have any wires connected to it. I originally thought it was an old TV antenna, but like I said, no wires. Now, maybe something for...

  17. Fuel tank pump out

    I recently purchased a 1984 55ft Convertible. It had been seized by a bank and the previous owner had let it sit for a number of years so it is in pretty bad shape. There was a good bit of water and slop pumped into the fuel tanks prior to me getting it. So my question is what is the best way to...

  18. New injectors, now twice the smoke.

    From another thread: I went to the rebuild shop and found out that the shop uses reconditioned parts for the injector overhaul. I got the bright idea of going over to Detroit Diesel in Miami and picked up reliabuilt N90P "premiums" at twice the price at $98.50 a pop. Before installing them, I...

  19. Bad Battery killing charger(s)??

    So, I replaced two 5.5 year old 8D's on 6/2/17. On 6/7/17- Charles 60 amp charger goes on the fritz and has no output on that (new) bank, remove it and send it out for repair. Generator which was running last weekend now has no charge output. Manual charger used on the 8d's brings one up to normal...
