  1. Shore power cable connectors protection...

    I need some help on how best to protect or cover (other than stowing) the couplings on my shore power cables when they're disconnected. Does somebody make covers that can be screwed on or something similar?

  2. Best cruising guide for SW FL. and the Keys...

    I'll be shoving off in a couple of months for those beautiful waters. Haven't made the trip in a couple of years (Pensacola to Key West). Not sure to what degree recent storms have affected marinas and services below St. Pete. I'd welcome recommendations and advice including "be sure to...

  3. Aft deck hardtop question

    I've owned the boat for 11months now, a '78 53my in generally great condition based on a good survey and relatively trouble free operation of all systems so far. Now this: mildew is showing up in about 8-9 spots around the ceiling of my aft deck. About half of the spots appear to correspond to the...

  4. Key West to Havana?

    I'm contemplating another visit to Cuba in late spring or early summer, having made the voyage a couple of years before. Just curious if any you guys or your buddies have made the voyage lately. She's berthed in Pensacola and we're planning to take our time getting down to the Keys with...

  5. another holding tank question...

    Okay, so I'm new to old Hatteras' too. She's a 78 53' Classic with 8V71TI's and in great condition. My wife and I are really looking forward to our first real cruise starting in the next 2 weeks along the Florida panhandle. My problem is a holding tank that fillls way too quickly. I've read the...

  6. NAID Stabilizer jiggle

    So now my stabilizers on my '78 53MY have suddenly begun to "jiggle" or vibrate noticably at speeds of 13-15knots. Occasionally even at around 10 knots. What's unusual is I've been running with only minimal sea conditions, mabe 2 1/2 ft. max on my port quarter or directly on my beam. The...

  7. Clorox to water ratios for freshwater tanks...

    So I've got serious slime and, as we say down here in Cajun country, grasdu (pronounced "grah-doo") in my freshwater tanks and lines. Particularly now that we're even farther south now, Key West. Got to deal with this stuff, it's about to start crawling out of my tank. What's the ratio of...

  8. Weeping canvas....

    Okay so I've just installed new black Sunbrella all over the boat (bimini, aft deck, hand rails, pulpit) and some of it is weeping extensively down onto the hull. What's the deal? Thought Sunbrella was the good stuff. How do I treat it?

    So I've recently added another 16k btu unit to cool my galley and forward cabin in my 53 MY. It gets very warm down here early in the year and stays that way thru Oct. It puts me right at 50 amps consuming on typical summer days. I've got a 16.5 kw northern lights that handles all my need...

    My 32v fw pump keeps shutting down on me while the dishwasher or washing machine is running. Can't figure it out. The pump is not 3 months old. What's odd is that all I have to do to re-start is flick the pump switch and it reprimes itself. I'm convinced it has something to do with the size of...

    Need help on a freshwater tank problem... I've recently installed a new Galleymaid pump. It works well except when we turn on high demand water equipment like the washing machine or dishwasher.

    Having real problems with seaweed and grass in my AC strainers AND thru hulls. Particularly the thru hulls. We're cruiising down in the Keys and I suspect Alberto plays a role in this new abundance of grass everywhere. Nontheless I'm cleaning these suckers almost every day to keep 'em operating and...
