  1. Hatt 39c?

    Looking at new listings this morning I came across a 1995 39c in Savannah. I don't know if I have ever seen one in person. It has the 485hp 6-71s. It must be pretty quick. I'm guessing it wasn't a high production boat. Does anybody know anything about the 39s?

  2. Side walkway deck drains clogging and overflowing.

    I saw Seven had a post about this, just wondering if anyone has tried anything to block debris from getting to the screens and plugging them? I keep coming to the boat and water is backed up, with 2-3 inches of water on the side decks, close to coming in the sliding side entry doors. Maybe...

  3. New Genset Advice

    Is there a forum member that deals in or any recommended company to go through for a Westerbeke genset? My original Onan gas genset is shot and I don't want to spend the money or effort in rebuilding it. Looking at the new westerbeke EFI units, seems to make much more sense.

  4. DDEC Reliability

    I'm looking at a boat with DDEC enginge controls. How reliable are the ECU's now that they are getting older. The boat is a 1998 with 16V92's. How many members here are running the electronic controlled engines and how is your experience. Is the DDEC basically a fuel, timing and monitoring system....

  6. Need to rebuild an 8v92

    The port engine looks pretty good, but one ring was a little funky and scored the hell out of the sleeve. The #2 piston. That created some problems and she'll need an in-place rebuild. Normally, I'd do them both - but the tech said he can't find a thing wrong on the starboard beast. Anyone who...

  7. Clutch Plates for BW 196 / ZF 1960 Transmission

    I have a 2002 65 Hatteras Convertible with ZF transmissions. It is likely that I need new Clutch plates and ZF is indicating they don't carry them any longer. The Clutch plates are listed as: 3081-202-027 for the friction plates and 3081-302-079 for the steel plates. I have a cross reference...

  8. Cold Start Idle Surge

    General question regarding mid to late 1980 model Detroit Diesels. When started cold, it surges before settling in at a constant rpm is a sign of compression lost? Are there other possibilities?

  9. Anyone have a set of Plans for a 1988-ish HatDK model?

    I pulled the trigger and bought the one in StPete. The plans on board are not for a DK. :( I’ve checked with Mother Hatteras, and they have no electronic copy. Am now checking to see if they have paper sets I can get copied. Anyone out in HattyLand have them?

  10. Water tank gauge

    I have a 1979 53’ MY with twin beds in the aft cabin. There is a water tank against the transom. My question is: how long is the gauge? Mine is only 18” long and for the life of me it cannot be accurate. The stern tank is also connected to the tank under the mid stateroom. Help if you can. Thanks.

  11. Water hoses…. Nasty!!!

    Has anyone replaced the 1 1/2” black hoses used to link the transom and midship tanks to the keel tank on early 1510s? This stuff is nearly nasty! Its like an hard rubber (no wire reinforcement) but the inside is coated with black hook, looks like the inside of the rubber is breaking down...

  12. Maxwell windlass owners, a question.

    How in hell is this emergency handle for manual windlass retrieval supposed to work? The handle is female and the windlass is female and Maxwell offers no optional male/male spline adapter to be a go between. The plastic maintenance handle has a male spline but it’s not removable. If I tried...

  15. Securing dock box to bow deck

    I am in the process of putting a dock box on my bow deck to store my unused lines and other related items. I’m assuming stainless steel right angle brackets 1-2” long per side should be good. My question is what the best method to secure the bracket to the deck? Use wood screws and sealant? Drill...

  19. 6V53 Minor Runaway - Maybe

    I started one of my 1963 6V53Ns yesterday after cleaning the heat exchanger, servicing the raw water pump, replacing the coolant, etc. The engine had not run in a few months so I confirmed the injector racks were free - all good there. The engine started normally and idled about 550 rpm with...
