  1. Fresh Water Tank maintenance

    What are the proper maintenance procedures to keep the Fresh Water tanks clean? My water has started to smell real bad. Thanks in advance, Greg

  3. 12V71TI's to 12V71N's

    I did a quick search and believe I found the answer, but just wanted to confirm... We're currently looking at a Hatt with 12V71TI's. The original engines went 5800hrs and were obviously very well maintained. The engines were rebuilt, and have gone 3300hrs to date. They pass the cold start...

  4. here's one for the electronics guru's

    Garmin GMR x04 open array radar just quit, no warnings, error codes, it just quit. This unit is accompanied by a voltage convertor (10-32v to 36v)from Garmin with the GMR60x pedestal being a 36v unit. My GPSMAP 5212 MFD doesn't recognize the radar as it did prior. I have replaced the network...

  5. The AMF years at Hatteras, as bad as at Harley-Davidson?

    I know from my motorcycling past that H-D went downhill rapidly once American Machine and Foundry took over. They are now seen as a typical conglomerate plunderer of it's day: no money for R&D, lower build quality, bad relations with dealers etc. What were the AMF years like at Hatteras? When did...

  6. 1985 52' Hatteras Sportfish

    Hi.......I just had my offer accepted on a 1985 Hatteras Sportfish. I will be flying up next week to sea trail her. I have a question though. I have been told that there are Detroit 8-71's powering her but from everything I have read, that is not what she was originally powered with. I believe...

  7. Purasan and Water Pressure

    I've installed a Purasan EX waste treatment system on our 43DC. It appears the fill time and resulting water level of the tablet dispenser is dependent on the water pressure, so I have to reset it differently for dock water and for water from the water tank. Further, the water pump kicks on at a...

  8. Westerbeke Generator Problem

    During a recent 5 day cruise on my 41DC, I was awakened by the sound of my 7kw Westerbeke gas generator shutting down at about 4am. My first thought was it ran out of gas as that side was showing low on fuel. After refueling later that morning, the generator proved very hard to start. I checked...

  10. Problems with Viking Yachts

    OK, this thread may be a little odd for a Hatteras Forum, but I figure after 800 posts you guys will cut me some slack. I'll be looking at and early 80's 46' Viking soon. I heard they sometimes have issues with stringer rot and loose engine mounts. Has anyone here seen the problem first...

  11. Manuals and drawings on PDF

    Robert Clarkson put a link on another thread that was a 92 series manual. I immediately downloaded it and put it on my IPad. I intend to scan all the drawings and info that came with Esperanza both to back up and have easily available for viewing. As a contractor who was an old school paper...

  12. Phosphoric vs Muratic Acid for Heat Exchangers

    I had a fine time recently flushing out the AC and part of the port engine raw water systems with a phosphoric acid solution called Phos-Foe and a bilge pump. (Per Genesis) Everything seems to work fine and the solution foamed as I pumped it in a closed circuit through the intercooler...

  13. Green Corrosion on Bronze Fittings

    Correct me if I’m wrong. Galvanic corrosion causes the bronze to de-zincify, causing the metal to take on a pinkish color and weakening it. Bonding protects the metal by connecting all underwater metals together, placing them all at the same electrical potential, thereby elimination any current...

  14. Repowering a 58 for trawler speed

    Just wondering how much hp would be needed to push a 58 along at trawler speed. Was thinking a pair of 6-71n @ 310 might work but not sure. Thoughts? (Yes, even though I'm currently boatless, there is a specific reason I ask)

  15. SeaDek or similar products

    We are considering doing the main deck on our 43DC with sea deck or a similar product. Our deck needs some help as it is. We like the look and are considering DIY. Has anyone done it? How does it wear? Stains? Price? Been to the SeaDek web site and came away confused. Thanks! Becky and...

  16. Trend Marine Products Pilothouse Door

  17. Changing prop shaft gland packing

    I have a port prop shaft packing gland that I never touched for 2 years since I bought the boat (1978 53MY, 2" shafts), and it never leaked a drop except when the boat was splashed after 5 months in winter storage. This spring, I noticed that it wobbles when the shaft turns and it's a little off...

  18. Looking for 1 or 2 M110 injector

    Does anyone have or know where I might find 1 or more M110 injectors for a 1987 Covington 671tib ? New, used and rested or rebuilt would do. I'm trying to isolate a problem before having to replace all injectors. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

  20. Onan MDL4 20KW starter issue

    I have an Onan MDL4 that came new on our boat. It's a 1985 vintage unit with about 3500hrs. It runs great and although it's loud, I'd like to keep it. The problem is that ever since we bought the boat in 2002, the starter has periodically not engaged. I don't use the genset much so I put off...
