  1. Is there a DVD on diesel maintenance?

    OK, I admit it, I am NOT a mechanic. I have replaced the water impellers on the mains and genset. Have also replaced belts,done oil changes and radiator fluids replaced my oil filters and fuel filters (remember my thread about breaking my ribs back in March). The junior college here FOR YEARS had...

  5. cleaning the bilge

    A buddy of mine just bought a 43' Hatteras "Fixer-Upper" and the motors are blown. He wants to clean the bilge up, it had GALS. of diesel fuel sloshing around along with plenty of oil. At the moment he has most of it cleaned up and now needs to get "mop up" the rest. What is the best way. ...

  6. moving the controls around

    Know on most boats, the transmission controls are on the center and throttle controls are on the outside, which is logical. On my little 43, and I believe on all the Hatts I've done, its just the opposite. As I have the weekend off next week, was thinking of changing mine around as it would...

  8. How many boating forums do you check

    Just wondering what other sites you visit. I know in my case I will go to Boat/US, Livingaboard,BoaterEd,SSCA, PassageMaker, Go Boating and The Cruising Life from time to time, but this Hatteras site is the one I visit every day.

  9. Diesel schools

    I have been searching around Jacksonville for a simple owner training school as I am "mechanically challenged" when it comes to working on my 6-71 N's. I can find schools that want to train me to be a full time mechanic which is not what I want. All I want is a short, couple day training that...

    We have tried using many types of electric heaters over the years and none have done the job, oil filled, ceramic etc etc. And this is when the reverse cycle heating system isn't enough. Not only do they not put out enough heat, due to the amps they draw we must be carefull what we use so as not...

Shut the motor off and jumped into the ER in which the Admiral already had pulled up the hatch (that's the ...

  15. Dock line fiascos

    Seems everytime we return to our slip, any and every person that is around feel them MUST help us with the dock lines. In our case, we leave ours at the dock and they are left so it's an easy job to just place them onto the boat cleat. All are either laid out in the position they go on, or are...

  16. Oil filter leaks

    I noticed a good amount of oil under both engines in the bilge this week. In both cases, it was from the oil filters. And this is the 3 rd year in a row I have had this happened just after the first "cold snap" of the season. "cold snap is meaning temps all the way down to 40". On...

  17. taken a fall onboard.

    Left last Wed. to make the trip up the St Johns River on a 5 day trip. The idea was, I would leave a day early, the Admiral and 2 of our grand kids would meet me in Lake George on Thursday from where we would go to Silver Glen and spend 2 days. I anchored up for the night and woke up early...

  19. Cockpit panals

    The two panals in our cockpit at the corners, where the cleats are at are both broken and The Admiral has stated I need to replace them... (The results of "non boating people" who put dock lines on the cleat and not thru the support ring). As they are curved, wondering where I can get them....

  20. Defective Electronic controls

    We were here in our slip when the 29' Tiara "tried" to dock in the slip next to us. Notice I said tried. His electronic controls were just "fixed" this week and they took it out for a test ride. Seems the mechanic didn't do too good a job as they lost steering a couple of times while out. ...
