  2. Batteries

    I need to get some new batteries, and I called Sams. They have an 8v battery that some previous posts have mentioned, but it is much smaller than my current batteries in size, so i am assuming that it is not correct. I only need to replace the starboard bank, and it is for starting only. Will...

  6. Synthetic Oil in Tranny Experiment Results

    Ok, since I am a synthetic oil geek, I had to try some in my trannies, Twin-Disc MG-506's last summer. I ran the same 40wgt Mobil 1 Delvac 1, which is specifically for Diesels and which I run in my 7.5Kw Onan genny with good success (no oil consumption observed during the 6 month season). ...

  7. Steering too Stiff

    Once again, my 43 sx is new to me. Since I bought the boat, I thought the steering was too stiff. It is a hynautic hydraulic unit. Assuming nothing is wrong with the rudders etc. is there a way to make the steering easier? I am wondering whether simply increasing the pressure (now at about 35...

  12. 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

    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...

  14. 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?

  19. 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.

  20. 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.
