  2. Underwater lights

    I have a 53 MY. I have purchased 3 of the Aqualuma lights to be installed. Looking behind the twin beds I find little space to mount them. Has any one with a 1979 53 footer ever installed these or other lights? If so exactly where did you set them? Please help.

  6. 1977 42c

    was the standard shaft size for this year 1.75: for diesel? with a 1/5 to 1 gear or was a 2" shaft also availible? if so did the strutts fit both size shaft bearings? are the shaft logs large enough to accomodate a 2" shaft even if the struts are too small.

    I have an issue with the racor on my forward Genset draining back. Replaced all I could in the racor already and may need to replace it with a new one but I thought I would ask whether I may need a check valve to prevent the draining back instead. I do not want to throw a valve every time I use it...

  14. Hynautic Transmission Control Issue

    The port pilothouse lever will not engage transmission into reverse. The port levers on both the flybridge and at the aft cockpit station work fine. I'm thinking it must be the hydraulic valve on the pilothouse port side lever. Anybody seen this and have any ideas?
