  4. Help with bleeding steering 58LRC

    We are on our maiden voyage from Portsmouth, VA - south. Prior to leaving the yard replaced a section of bad hose on the hydraulic steering system section in the lazarette. It appears they did not bleed the system fully and we are having some issue with steering the boat. Can anyone help? ...

  5. Hose on older boats

    Considering the purchase an older Hat (1970's era) and started to think about all the systems, etc. that will need to be replaced. One item I just thought about are the hoses, particularly those that don't have a seacock, such as the exhaust hoses. Do these fail? Do they need to be replaced? ...

  6. Engine stalls, fuel issue Detroit 4-71. Simple troubleshooting?

    I had a man working over on the port side of my engine room this week and he was "crammed" in the area where the fuel lines come off the Floscan Homogenators/Pulse Dampers and connect over to the fuel pump. The motor has been running perfectly up to that point, but today when I started it to...

  7. Worth going outside the US for refit work?

    I am considering taking our 58LRC down to Guatemala to have refit work done on her. Why? I'm tired of paying for sub-par quality of work here in Florida at $120-150/hr. I'm on the West Coast and haven't had a good experience yet with any of the yards over here. This is a list of potential...

  8. Alternator questions

    We are learning a lot about our new 58LRC, including some things that are not working. No surprise on a used boat, but it is frustrating that some of these tings were missed by the "engine" surveyor, despite my specifically asking for these items to be checked. One issue I discovered is a 24V...

  9. Detroit Diesels - Anyone see this before?

    I'm hoping I just need to remove the plate and install a new gasket. Must be salt crystals right? Just don't want this to be an indication there is a blockage downstream. Engine is not running hot and seems like great water flow out the exhaust.

  10. 58LRC - New owner, pending survey.

    After searching and looking at several 58LRC's I have decided to move forward and purchase one of these fantastic older vessels. Pending successful survey (in a few weeks), we look to take ownership by the end of September. I've already spent the better part of a full day going through her,...

  11. 58' LRC Pilothouse floors and refinishing

    Does anyone know what wood and finish is used on the pilothouse floor of a 58LRC? Mine are in pretty nice shape except for the finish which is worn out in a few spots. I was thinking of surface sanding these floors and re-finishing them. Varnish? Polyurethane? Other?

  15. 58LRC Shaft log problem

    On our 1st voyage, I noticed water was dripping from the shaft on the starboard engine more that normal. I'm not familiar with the type of packing setup on these vessels and expected to find a large packing nut that I could tighten. Instead I found a 2 flange setup with bolts that appear to...

  17. Allison Transmissions, where is the oil going?

    My Detroits (471's) have Allison transmissions. The Allison transmissions have, ever since I've owned the boat, consumed oil. I'd say they require my adding about 3-4 ounces every 18 hours or so of running time. No a big deal, but I should would like to know where it's going... The oil...

  19. 58LRC Emergency Tiller?

  20. Help with locating drive temp sender and/or Yacht safety center problem

    On my 58LRC, I received an alarm on the Yacht Safety Center that says "stbd drive temp", when the engine is cold and hasn't even been running. I does not go away when I start the engine. Clearly there is a problem with the alarm as the drive temperature is at ambient air temperature of about 70...
