  2. Tightening hose clamps

    Don’t know how often you guys tighten your hose clamps on your engines, but if you don’t at least check them every 6 months you might be sorry. I did mine about a year ago and was running this weekend and saw a water leak above the transmission, so after we stopped I tried tightening the hose...

  3. Marquip Sea stairs

    I need to replace the wheels/casters and cannot get ANY movement. What's the trick? I have them soaking in WD, it's low 30's here so I'm trying to shake off some cabin fever. I also need to replace some bolts that hold the steps to the side rails. I had one step that was missing both top side...

  4. Portside list?

    I recently purchased a 1980 58' Yachtfish. It comes 'equiped' with a portside list.;) My previous boat (50' Grandbanks) had fuel tanks on both sides so I could move fuel to level it out. I haven't been able to spend any time on the boat since purchase so I'm not sure what a good solution might be....

  5. FP aftermarket parts

    So my starboard engine (671ti 450hp) was starting to smoke a little once warm, my mechanic pulled the head and we observed the bad news. A cracked head that had U valves and a bad hole with broken rings. Hats off to Detroit as this engine still would reach max rated rpms and no smoke (observable)at...

  6. New racors

    Have recently replaced my racor units . Would air being sucked through with the fuel cause unburnt fuel (gray smoke ) at the exhaust on 8.71 engines

  7. New Cat 7.1 for repower

    Looks like Cat is going after the repower market for smaller HP older boats. They claim the new 7.1 is perfect to replace 3208's or "two stokes". Based on the hp, I'd say that means up to 8v71's could be replaced with these. And notice how much emphasis they put on how quiet they are. Seems...

    I looked at a Hatteras that has a lot of work that need to be done to get it up to speed. I am not going to buy this boat but just wonder what you guys thought of what it would take to repair each item?

  10. Starboard Bilge Flooding, TMC Toilets and Locating a Leak.

    Got a huge shock to find the starboard mid bilge pump counter was registering 8 pumpouts. Also that my batteries were nearly flat after four days away from the boat. Sure enough the starboard bilge was 1/4 full. 1. Rule bilge pump and float had apparently shifted during recent heavy...

  11. Cleaning your dash

    Most of us have etched letters in our dashes like, lights, bildge, blowers etc. Mine were so dull I could hardly read them. I decided to paint the letters with white paint to make them stand out. It didn’t seem to work so I took some warm water and a rag to remove the wet paint. After wiping it I...

  12. Looking for Teckspertise (new word) on Battery Chargers

    I have a Sentry FR series 32 volt charger that I believe is less then 10 years old. Instead of giving a full charge, and shutting off, it charges to about 28 volts, and starts this surging thing. If I put it on manual, it charges everythong up fine, but obviously wont shut off. Any Ideas?

    Once removed what is the best way to replace the new vinyl window spline into the groove in the aluminum frames? The grooves are clean and free of any old sealants/caulk but I'm having trouble getting them to insert. Any ideas on using windex, liquid soap or other slippery fluids? Thinking about...

  14. 53 ED Batteries in the Med.

    G-day All, Mélodie needs new batteries for the port and starboard sets. What is currently installed by PO is two banks - each side having 8 x 8v (so 16 in total) of Trojan deep cycle T875 batteries. They lasted 7 years. The original fit was Douglas 825 (8v 250Ah) - would they have been...

    For everyone out there with Raritan, I stopped by the Raritan office in Fort Lauderdale yesterday and to my surprise they had closed this location. There was however a note on the door to head over to Raz Marine. Apparently Raz Marine has taken over the Raritan product line. Had an issue with my...

  17. Icemaker in cabinet - heat dissipation

    Maybe too much spare time - to ponder appliance ventilation in enclosed cabinets? After a few years of observing the aft deck icemaker struggle on warm days I decided to install a fan to augment the air flow into the front, and another smaller fan to pull the heat out of the back of the cabinet. ...
