  1. Engine mounts

    Met the mechanic today and the outboard front engine mount on the starboard engine is broken. The steel is fine, just the rubber bushing has crushed as I understand it. We need to raise it close to 1/2 inch. Any ideas? Just a rubber shim or replace the mount?

  2. Sat dish cable routing

    I would like to route the single cable for a KVH M1 down the port aft corner wall on my 1984 53MY. I am also considering the installation of a flush mounted speakers for the aft deck so an access hole may be cut at the exterior top of that wall location. Here's the question: Does anyone know if...

  3. 6-71 service manual

    Hi. Does anyone know where I can purchase a Covington 6-71 service/shop manual (relevant to 1986ish engines) ? After a 1/2 hour or so of "googling" the only one I found was $380!

  4. SeaDek or similar products

    We are considering doing the main deck on our 43DC with sea deck or a similar product. Our deck needs some help as it is. We like the look and are considering DIY. Has anyone done it? How does it wear? Stains? Price? Been to the SeaDek web site and came away confused. Thanks! Becky and...

  5. Poked a Hole in the $@&$$@@@ Headliner

    Hi All, Ahhhhh...... I'm so careful when working anywhere near the headliner but Murphy's Law strikes again. Poked a 1/2 inch hole in the salon headliner. Anyone have a miracle method of repairing or hiding the tear? Replacement isn't an option really.

  7. Window help!

    I am having some trouble with my windows leaking. I have resigned myself to taking them out and resealing them or replacing the glass altogether. I read through the post on FAQ to do with this but my problem has to do with actually getting the window frame out. So far I have taken out all the...

  9. Battery placement/cables

    On a 1972 53 MY, I originally had four 8d 8volt batteries in two battery boxes port and starboard. The starboard batteries are a real pain to check and top off. Last year I replaced the port 8ds with four 4ds which fit in the aft port box. It is now time to replace the starboard batteries, again...

    It looks like it going to get down to 18 degrees this weekend in Destin. We don't have block heaters, so I am looking for options for heating the engine room. I am hesitant to use an electric or ceramic heater due to possible diesel fuel or battery fumes. Not sure what is available around...

    I noticed a wet spot in the aft cabin bedroom stbd side which led me to look up for the source. I noticed what looked like grey caulk over the headliner in the fwd stbd corner. When I removed the "caulk" I realized it was very light weight and seems to be more of a growth. Whatever it is,...

    I have 1-1/2 year old batteries and a new Charles 40 Amp charger that was installed at the same time as the battery change. All great so far, except that after a long weekend of use, I now notice that the charger has not returned to zero and there is no load on the batteries. The charger is at 9...

    Anyone have a good source for replacement filters for the Airseps on our 8V92s? I would prefer not paying full pop for them from Walker but I want to get them quickly. I guess a google search for K&N would be a good start. Thanks in advance for any input. Paul 240-417-7868...

  19. Refit Questions

    Hello all, Does anyone know if the afromosia wall paneling can be purchased from Sam's? Also, how about the wood interior doors and trim from the 80's models? Also what is behind the walls of the salon and staterooms? Are there studs or does the paneling get secured to the glass some other way?

  20. Thinset/Carpet Advice

    My MY is up north for the first time. The PO had enclosed the aft deck, applied a coat of thinset over the fiberglass deck and put down either marble tiles or ceramic tiles (not sure which). Well, due to the cold, the tiles have lifted and buckled. (See below). So, I am having the tiles removed...
