No fuel leaks, but on shut down the fuel drains back to the tank, leaving the racor about 1/4 full of fuel. Any thoughts on where to start the...

  6. 32 volt Battery Tender?

    I've used the 12V battery tenders for years on stored vehicles to keep the batteries in good shape without overcharging them. This winter, for the first time in my possesion Brigadoon will be out of the water. There will be no constant (like shore power) electricity available. However, there is...

    Hi guys, we are closing on a 52c very soon. We found a early 90's model that we are happy with, one thing we have to upgrade on the interior is the carpet and galley flooring.

  9. Cost of Painting Hull

    I have a guy who has sprayed imron quite a bit, and he has given me an estimate to paint our hull with imron while we are in the yard. I was woundering if any of you know what you paid per foot to have the hull of your boat painted. I think it's a good price, but I am not sure, so I would like to...

  17. 53 Convertible Tunnel Hull

    What was the first year Hatteras started to put prop tunnels in the hull of the 53' Convertible? I thought that the first model year was 1977 but in the thread on Al's boat, I think it was, someone said it was 1976. How did the tunnels affect the speed of this hull? Gain or loss of speed? Thom
