  3. Opinions on widening 41C Series 1 flybridge...

    What do you folks think? I'm considering this and aside from the effort involved (not worried about that), what downsides are there in your opinions? I'm talking about widening the FB to the ouside of the cabin top as most boats are now. Thanks... CMP

  4. CPES Question

    I was wondering....I'm making brackets to anchor my mufflers to replace the brackets that are shot. I'm going to use 3/4 inch plywood and soak it with CPES before I paint it with Bilgecoate. Is there any reason to use marine grade plywood if I'm going to sock it with CPES? While I'm at it...I...

  5. 36C Questions

    We're looking at a 36 Convertable that has been repowered with 370 Cummins. I was told by someone that the boat was never meant for that amount of horsepower and that eventually I would see cracking around the base and sides of the main bulkhead seperating the cockpit from the salon. Does anyone...

  6. A/C controls

    I had the two 16000 BTU units on our boat replaced 3 years ago. I was asked if I wanted to keep the old themostats I had or wanted the new digital style. I was told it mattered on what compressor they would order as one style compressor could not be used if I wanted digital controls. I ended up...

  7. Engine Winterizing question...

    I know this is an odd time to bring this up but in un-winterizing yesterday I began thinking...Why winterize? The reason I started thinking about it is that the water pumps seal in the genny RW pump started dripping when I started the engine. Actually, I'm not too surprised because sitting and...

  14. Vented loop thoughts?

    I have some 1990 vintage Hatteras with vented loops in some of the toilet hoses. They are made of bronze elbows and tee fittings with a "Scott Marine" white plastic vent with a spring inside. Over the years they have leaked some nasty stuff and caused some corrosion on the aluminum rubber...

    Need to reattach a bronze (brass?) hold down plate in the bilge. It's not submerged in seawater. Originally secured with a bronze 1/4' bolt & nut. The nut vibrated off and is now lost.

  17. another warm engine

    OK, here goes...one of my engines (port) is running a bit warm at 2400 revs. They are CAT 3116s. Last year I had a temp problem with the starboard one, which turned out to be a sticking thermostat. This is different- when I back off the revs, the temp comes back down. By a bit warm I mean 195 or...

  19. New batteries are in.

    I just got back from removing and replacing four 8D batteries. I imagine that the next time I have to do this, I will not do it solo. I'm going to ache for a week. But, at least they're in, and I won't have to worry about them 70 miles out this season. I wound up going with the NAPA commercial...
