  1. Mixing bronze and nibral props

    What are the ramifications of using one bronze and one nibral prop? I have located a matching prop for my lost one, but it is bronze (new, not used) for less than half the price of the nibral props that I have found. Should I be concerned? The prop shop selling it says no problem, but......

  2. Phosphoric

    Anyone had any luck finding 'ph-ospho-ric' or any phosphoric acid in the mid Ches. Bay area? Seems Home Depot no longer carries acids in this area and my local hardware store (that always has what I need) doesn't stock it either! Rob

  5. Zinc Check and questions

    Yesterday, as my first scuba dive since certified, I checked the zincs on our 53. There weren't none! Well, perhaps I exaggerate...there was about 1/4 of one side of a zinc in the port rudder, and a portion of a zinc on the port shaft but it was spinning freely on the shaft. It did a nice job...

  6. Painting the Boat

    In about a month we are having the boat pulled and painted up to the rubrail. This is going to be a project that I have never encountered before. As I have noted in another thread, one of the previous owners had repainted the boat and in the process painted the rubrails and the window frames. It...

    I have a 1964 41c with less than 150hr rebuilds 6v53n's around 210hp. In my infinet wisdom I went to 24x24 4 blades, the wrong answer. Now I can only spin up to 2400 wot. I called prop scan, and they recomended something in the 22x23 range. Seems awful small, but the math seems to confirm that is...

  10. Dirty Fuel - Asphetine vs. Bacteria

    Drained a bunch of crud out of my strainers today. Looked like black flakes which when rubbed between your fingers turned grainular. Is this asphetine (sp?) or bacteria? Stainers are not clogging yet but this stuff can't be good. What's the best way to deal with this?

  11. Dupont paint code's on older Hat

    I have a few nicks and chips I wanted to repair on my '81 Vintage Hatteras so I took the original paint codes from the owners manual over to the Dupont paint store and met with an obstacle in that they were unable to come up with a formula or cross match one from these codes. I find it hard to...

  12. Open bridge VS enclosed for live aboard 58/60 SF

    I may have the opportunity to do the Mass/Florida trek each year and am thinking of moving aboard a 1991 era 58/60 SF. Winter in Florida, Summer in NY/Mass/RI. While the 1970s YF 58 seems a no brainer choice, the appeal of the newer SF is my assumption they are better suited to cruising offshore...

  16. Rudder Alignment

    I remember a thread a couple years ago on the proper alignement of the rudders. I tried to search for it, but it must have been lost on the old forum. On my boat the rudders are parallel with no toe in. When we were looking at the boat before we bought it I mentioned to the dealer that I...

  19. fuel consumption

    I have recently noticed that my starboard tank has been burning more fuel, appx. 20 -25 gallons, per offshore trip, than the port tank, which also fuels the genset. An example; last weekend I burned 55 gallons in the port engine, Cummins 370 B and Northern Lights 8 KW and the starboard burned 80...
