  1. DD Tune Up Time?

    When is a good run time interval to tune up DD turbos? Different for naturals? Over the past six years since my port engine was rebuilt (and tuned) I've noticed my starboard 8V71TI has begun to be just a bit slower to start when cold during last season. It may also be smoking just a tad more...

  4. Looks like I may have a genny!

Its a 4.5KW Westerbeke gas generator, about 1989, with 1000hrs from someone on the board here. Its been in freshwater its entire life and is FWC as well. The owner said it even has...

  5. Started my 8V71TI tune up yesterday

    But I couldn't find my set of step (go/no-go) feeler gauges so I had to make do with a standard set to check the valves. Takes a LOT longer! I did 4 cylinders of one engine before getting so annoyed that I quit and ordered a new set from Snap-On....

  6. Wondering about one aspect of repowering

    I am NOT repowering - well, not until the diesel electric thing is sorted out - but I'm curious about one aspect of the process. I assume that when Mr. Hargrave, who seemed to know what he was doing, designed most (all?) of the boats we discuss on this forum, the weight of the drive train planned...

  8. Hatteras Tach Problem

    My original port tach (lower station, 1972, mechanical) stopped recording engine hours at exactly 2,000. It seemed like one gear did not want to register that even reading and they all stopped. RPM indication remains correct and my Glendenning synchronizer works properly. Any ideas about what the...

  9. Ensign 735 Digital Dual-Tach/Sync

    Can anyone tell me where I can get this tach repaired or is it worth repairing. It appears it trys to show numbers but you can't read them. Most sections of numbers are out. Don't even know if the sync part of the instrument works. Is there a better up to date unit available out there? I have...

  12. Warm Salon in Miami Beach

    A plastic bag covered the AC raw water intake (when I moved the boat we saw it float away) and the AC stopped blowing cool air. The fan runs full blast but does not get cold. The stateroom AC works fine. How do I start to trouble shoot this problem ? Thank you, Greg

  13. Renewing old dock lines

    My mother used to wash the old stiff dock lines in the washing machine and they would come out like new. I think she used some fabric softener in with it. So, I was wondering, do you think this reduces the strength of the lines? I know we never had any problems using them after washing, but it...

  14. Unhappy fuel -air problems

    We just purchased our dream boat a 58' YachtFisher 1972 model. I am having tons of problems with air in the fuel lines. Can bleed the air out and she runs fine. But let her set for a week and will run for 10 min and quits. Changed fuel pumps, check valves, pressured the systems to 60 psi to try to...

  15. Questions 53C

    Well we spent the first weekend on the boat and as I had time to explore all the system I have a few questions to pose. I got the transmission controls moved to the port side with the throttles moved to starboard. The cables are very stiff and movement takes, what I feel, to much force. I have...

  16. 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...

  17. Wayne ---- Stuffing Box Questions

    I have a 36 Sedan Series II which is in Exuma. On my last trip to the boat I noticed that the starboard rudder stuffing box was leaking. Does anybody have any experience with this. I would like to at least fix it temporarily until I return home to Sarasota next year.
