  3. 32 Volt Newmar Dimmers

    Does anyone know how to troubleshoot these things ? They have what looks like a normal rheostat and a black box with an aluminum heat sink on the outside. It appears that Hatt used them for all the instrument dimmers .

  5. neutral safety switch

    My 3 year old son reminded me that I don't have a neutral safety switch. You can imagine the pandemonium when i started up at the dock. Did Hatteras ever install switch ? 1976 46c.

  7. Black smoke, normal for the engines?

    My first really big trip on my new (used) vessel with twin cummins C series 450's. Engines surveyed fine, use no oil, no oil or fuel on the water on start up. When started smokes (white only) for about 5 mins. and quits. The problem: around 1400-1700 rpm noticed puffs of black smoke, it goes away...

  8. Knowledge and/or money needed?

    I am wondering if I am capable of learning all there is to know about handling and maintaining a 38'+ motor yacht without going bankrupt since I know next to nothing about them. From this forum it appears as if everyone is either knowledgeable, monied or both. I am neither. Any comments or...

  9. Genset Shutdown Problem Solved

    Well, as it turns out my genset did not run out of fuel as I had originally thought. When I got back to the boat I checked the reset button on the service panel, and it did not appear to have activated the shutdown. I checked the fuel supply anyway and determined that it was o.k. I was getting...

  12. Question Converting from 32 VDC to 24 VDC...

    I have been commissioned to convert a 53 MY from 32 VDC with five (that's right 5 :eek: ) DC/DC converters scattered throughout the vessel to a much saner 24 VDC system. I will generate the 12 VDC required for the VHF and the TNT dinghy lift with a battery equalizer in each bank. Has anybody...

  13. Stabilizers?

    Yesterday while traveling across Lake Michigan in 3-4 footers following on the stb quarter, I noticed a vibration that would last for a second or two and then go away. I happened repeatedly over the 110 mile trip. Maybe some of you guys with stabilizers can tell me if it is related to them. It...

  14. Water Leak?

    I recently noticed some water in my starboard engine room bildge on my 1973 53MY. I am not an engine expert by any stretch of the imagination, but I found that the water was a fairly steady drip coming from the shaft just in front of where the shaft goes out through the aft section of the starboard...

  16. Another Smart Aleck Post About Hatt Ride

    I like to listen to radio chatter, so about an hour before a head-pump/day cruise I tune in to several channels. I keep hearing how rough it is and "we are slowing down, so we can use the head...you know how rough it is". So we go out, pump heads, and stick out nose out into Lk Huron. About...

  17. fuel leak

    I have 1976 46c. After 4 hour steam I noticed a strong fuel smell in the engine room. On the port engine inboard side, I found traces of fuel on the housing between trans and engine. Also seems to be around the small oval plate which I think may be the cylinder inspection plate. I had new injectors...

  18. Extra 12v alt on DD 871N

    We have a 1969 50MY. The engines use 32v. I am thinking of adding a 12v alt to one eng. This would keep up the 12v battery I use for electronics. My gen is 12v but I would like to charge of the DD. Has anyone done this? What type alt? Diamond Sun Ft Myers

  19. General Hatteras Advice Needed

    My wife and I are looking to purchase a used Hatteras MY. We recently looked at a 38’ with twin Detroit diesels 6V53N. The engines each had 4800 hours . Even if these engines had been meticulously maintained, is 4800 still a lot of hours? If this boat had to be repowered with new engines, would...
