  1. Fuel filter microns ?

    My primary on port engine is 30 micron and 2 on the secondary. Stbd is 10 primary and 2 on 2nd.

  2. What causes this and what is the remedy?

    There is discoloration around a number of our stainless stantions and deck cleats, as can be seen from the attached photos. What is the cause, how does one get rid of it, and what can be done to prevent it in the future? Many thanks, Paul

  3. Max RPM at WOT Underway

    I have a 1972 43'FBMY with the J&T 6-71N's @310hp. I have now owned the boat for ten years and at WOT can never exceed 2450rpm. I ran at WOT into a slight head sea the other day with 2/3 fuel and full water tanks and 1/2 full holding tanks. On that day I reached 2405rpm observed with digital...

  4. Running on Old Gas

    A friend aquired a boat with 350 gallons of 2 year old gas. My suggestion was to have some extra filters on hand, top it off (holds 400 gal) with fresh 93 octane and run it. That said, I was wondering if anyone here has had any good experience with these miracle in a bottle gas restorers?

    Last month whenever I start the Genny (15kw 1980 Onan 2800hrs) it would smoke horrible, cold or hot load or no load.

  9. Keel Repair

    During the haul-out for maintenance described in a previous thread, the yard power washed the bottom of my boat, only to find a crack in the aft end of the keel. The yard manager says it appears it has been leaking water. The crack was apparently hidden by the newer bottom paint on the boat when...

  10. repower Again

    Well I did it. Installed a pair of Yanmar 8SY (900hp) in a 1981 stretched 50C (now 53ft). It was not an eazy installation as I did it without tearing up the salon. I cut a 5x5 hole in the salon floor up against the rear bulkhead and came in through an enlarged back window. I had to modify the...

  11. Running warm or not?

    I have 735 h.p. 892's . When cruising at 1800 -1900 rpm's my starboard temp gauge reads up to 245 degrees. The gauge in the engine room, which I believe is mechanical, reads 185. The port reads around 185 on both gauges( bridge and engine room). Correct me if I'm wrong but there is no way the gauge...

  13. Cutlass Bearings and Pedro Tubes

    Purchased our 1975 42' Convertible approximately nine months ago from a divorce sale (wife got the Hatteras). As such, we didn't have the opportunity to speak to the husband about maintanance and such. As a result, I've been completing the maintanance on everything to give myself a baseline from...

  14. Bilge Floor Repair

    A couple of weeks ago I removed an OEM battery box which was bonded to the flat section in the bilge floor between the engines (the box was old and starting to break up). To tear it out it ripped up a section I wouldn't call gel coat but was a section of coating over the original floor matting (see...

  15. Engine temp Redux

    I want to revisit something that's we've done to death but I have some opinions that differ a bit, I think - proper engine temp for these DDs. The thermostat's job is to ensure that an engine maintains a minimum temp. For 71's I have seen tstats in 160, 170, and 180 ranges - there may be more. ...

  16. Bronze Pipe Nipples

    A while ago there was a post from someone saying that they wanted to replace brass pipe nipples on a thru-hull fitting and that they couldn't find any bronze ones. I was wandering through Boater's World a few days ago. Trying to find something that they didn't have (again). :rolleyes: When I...

  17. Trim Tab Movement on 43DC

    My trim tabs were replaced at one time and I'm not sure they are installed properly. Hydraulic cylinder travel is normal but I'm not sure that they are mounted in the correct position with respect to the tabs. They are attached to the tabs at the outside edge which is probably correct. However...
