  1. Underwater Metals Prep and Paint

    My bottom was soda blasted in the fall and over the winter I've stripped and polished all my bronze intake strainers. My wedge strainers were covered with growth and I'm not sure if the PO ever took them off. Every time the boat comes out of the water the hull is clean but all bronze parts are...

  4. Onan Generators

    Well as long as everyone has there brain tuned in on generators. I need some help too. Where can I get a manual for a 1973 7.5 KW Onan model MDJE 3CR 2268B. It runs great. It just does not want to start very quick. You have to crank it way to long to get it to start. There are 2 glow plug switches...

  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...

  7. 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...

  8. Racor loosing prime

    Here's one for the trivia trackers... Stbd racor looses prime. This gremlin has me topping off the racor before firing. Fires off fine and prime holds. 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...

  9. 52c

    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. Also the flooring in the heads. We were thinking of using carpet in the salon to keep that comfy feeling and using the teak...

  12. Some fairly technical Detroit questions on a potential purchase. Begging for advice!

    Hello to all and thanks in advance: I've been traveling up and down the East Coast looking at several older 46 to 52 convertibles. I love them all....even the ugly ones! Anyway I think I've settled on trying to pick-up a nice mid-80s 52C, if I can find one for a bargain that I'm comfortable...

  14. Bow Pulpit Removal/Deck Repair 2009

    I removed the Galley Maid windlass and with Mambeaux's help drilled the holes for a Maxwell RC 10-8. (My deck and pulpit combined thickness is a hair under 4" and a dry run install confirms that the Maxwell will fit without an extension kit) I cleaned out the wet/rotten coring that I could...

  15. 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

  16. I've had about all of VacuFlush I can stand.

    Second day working on VacuFlush system and still not working right. Tested pump with vacum gauge before putting back on and it would pump up to 11 # vacum. Put it back after cleaning all duck bills on suction side and now it will not shut off. Acting like it is not getting to the 10 lbs of vacum...

  17. 6V92 Identification

    Good afternoon all. I was hoping that someone here could help me identify what Hp rating these 6V92 are. Would this information be obtained from the hull numbers on the transom? I'm looking at a 1983 43C, and the old man that's selling me the boat has no idea what the Hp rating is. Long story...

  18. Stiff Steering

    I looked through about 4 pages of threads and didn't exactly see this issue addressed. I have a 1985 45C and we have had the small, routine service issues with the Hydaulic steering system that others have experienced and commented on. However, almost every service person who has ever steered...

  19. Metal Polish

    I just picked up a used fighting chair and wanted to know the most effective metal polish you've all used. The chair has just had an initial polish on my part but I want to get something that will really do a number on it. I guess i'll end up using this on all the chrome on the boat as well as...

  20. Life expectancy of a generator

    Our 61 has two 20kw Kohlers. The forward genny has nearly 5,000 hours and the aft has about 3,000. For whatever reason, the forward genny has decided it is not going to start. In fact, it will not even fire. It acts as though it is getting no power. Initially, it fired right up. I turned it...
