  1. 8V71TI shut down at cruising speed. Please help!

    I knew this day would come, but I hoped it wouldn't be after just three months of owning her. While heading back to the marina today, after running the boat (1978 46C) for about twenty miles, my starboard 8V71TI shut down. I had it synchronized at about 1700 rpm when I heard the starboard engine...

  2. Fiberglass Gas Tank leak

    I own one of the Hatteras Yachts built with Gas engines. It is a 1988 40' double cabin. I have had the boat for about 11 years. Yesterday when I went to the marina to check on my boat I found it had a strong gas smell in the cabin. After a quick search I discovered the aft bilge had an inch or...

  3. Oil Analysis lessons

    Not that anyone needs convincing about lube oil analyses, but here is a current unfolding story. During the survey of 1976 Cummins 903 VTA's we got an oil analysis on one engine with the following SEVERE readings. We do not know the hours on the oil, but it's likely been sitting mostly unsued for...

  4. 8V71-N vs 8V71-TI

    Looking at a 53my with the naturals and one with turbos, both have almost the same hours 3k and look in decent shape. I will of course have either motor surveyed but I'm wondering if there is a preference for longevity and upkeep. Are the N's underpowered without a turbo? Most of these boats...

  7. Paint floor

    Removing carpet in salon on a 42ft hatteras before I put down new flooring would it be wise to paint the plywood that is under the carpet?

  9. Our 52C

    Its finally here today, man it sure is a nail biting thing waiting on you boat to arrive. The delivery went very well, better than expected. Almost 1300 miles in 11 days, they chose to go through the canals through the the Louisiana stretch due to weather. Between waiting in the locks and waiting...

  10. On Repowering / Refitting a 1985 45C

    I have read and re-read all the threads I could find regarding Repowering a 45C. My 45C Hat Time has never run better than it has right now and has about 2370 hours on the DD 692's and going strong. I want to repower to benefit from a little more performance and as well as enjoy nicer manners of...

    Now that the sailboat is built and the E-type restoration is well underway I can turn my attention to the hatt. Finally. It's going to be a long project, spread over the next couple of of years but after going back and forth between selling as is (aka giving away for almost nothing) and buying...

  12. 48MY Refit Progress

    OK - this is my first post, so here's a quick intro to how we became owners of my (almost) dream boat. After owning 4 new value production boats (Sea Ray, Chaparral, Silverton), both the need for more living space for the growing family, and the realization that new boat warranties are a joke, led...

  13. Vibration

    I had the stbd. engine out of alignment. and aligned it 2 weeks ago. Last weekend I had the boat out and there's no vibration up to 1800 rpm. From 1800 up it vibrates like crazy. My dad told me that if it is a bent shaft it will vibrate at any rpm so that it must be the cutlass bearing. I went...

  14. DD mods

    Two years ago this spring I had my mechanic tune both engines and replace all 16 injectors. The engines had n70 injectors and I had him install n 80 injectors in my good condition 8v71n engines. They are interstate mcbee. The wheels are 27x30 and the engines still don't reach full rated rpm...

  15. Transducer Removal, 5200

    I am in the process of trying to remove an Airmar B258 transducer (don't need to save the transducer). I believe that it has been bonded with 5200. I don't have real good access to it, but did try a 3 pound hammer with no joy. I think I can set up a bottle jack to try to push it out, but my...

  16. Marquipt Davit - Turning When Loaded

    Why not another project. For those experienced with Marquipt Davits, I have a 1200 pound Davit that can go up and down and also where the wire can go in and out. However, it is not one where it can spin on its axis by power. So, when I am raising my 16 RIB,, and the RIB is parallel to my boat, it...

  18. Left motor will not turn over

    With all the cruddy weather over the past few months I neglected to run my motors. I've been waiting for some warmer decent weather. So today was the day. Initially, the right motor started up after a prolonged start sequence, no problem. Left motor put out a few puffs of smoke, acted like it...

  19. Exhaust Temp Alarm

    In the test mode, the light does not come on on one of my exhaust temp alarms. How do I test these alarms. I guess I just cut the two wires going to the exhaust temp alarm and jump them together? That will tell me which of the two exhaust temp alarms on one engine is not working? Hard to believe...

  20. Cleaning interior wood and paneling What works best?

    The interior teak and Afromosia veneer is 30 years old, and discolored. Murphy Wood Soap does not phase it. I suspect the old sealer needs to come off and the wood deep cleaned. I have read through the relevant posts I could find. My thoughts run to a varnish stripper followed by wood...
