  2. 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? ...

  3. 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...

  4. Exhaust Blankets - 58LRC, a few questions

    Does anyone know if the exhaust blankets in the attached photos would be the original for these engines? Do they contain asbestos? They are in overall decent shape except for one side where the cloth is worn out from running against people squeezing by. Is there a fiberglass tape or other...

  5. 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...

  6. 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...

  7. Engine Room temperature

    I'm wondering what others are seeing as temperature in their engine rooms. I will measure mine next trip out. The reason I'm asking is that I am getting a "thermal warning" on my Victron Multiplus inverter, usually after shutting down the engines (after running for a few hours). The engine...

  8. 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.

  9. Question for 58/65 LRC owners

    Can anyone send me a photo or describe what the cabinets on the far right side of the pilothouse are supposed to look like? Mine our simple open shelves and I'd like to return them to original. Where these pull out drawers or did they hinge on sides? Do they contain file hangers? I...

  10. 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?

  11. Scott B, saved my butt again.

    Yesterday, we were out on the hook for the 1st time in a few months (a number of repairs and upgrades being done) and had an issue with my Victron Multiplus not charging properly. About 3 weeks ago, I had updated the Firmware on the Cerbo, Multiplus and BVM. Didn't notice any problems as the...

  12. Power Problems with HVAC on Generator

    Not to hijack RyanB's thread on Power Problems with AC, I have created this separate thread on an issue I discovered this weekend. I have never attempted to run our 16KBTH 220V HVAC system or any of the HVAC systems on my Northern Lights 6K genset as I've always just run off our large Genset. ...

  13. HVAC Circulation pump - Magnetek. How to separate motor from pump end?

    Does anyone have any experience separating the motor from the pump on a HVAC Circulation pump? This is a "Magnetek Century AC motor" Seems to use a "Scot" pump which I have ordered, but I can't seem figure out if the old pump is "Keyed" or screwed onto the motor shaft. I've attached a...

  14. Help with these Isolation Transformers (assuming that is what they are)

    I have 2 large boxes in the engine room (see below) which I believe to be isolation transformers as well as possibly voltage boosters/frequency converters. Of all the documentation I have on board, I don't have any information on these. I've attached a photo of the top unit and hope maybe...

  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...

  16. Black sealant between teak on pilot house floors

    Hi guys, Today I decided that my pilothouse floors aren't looking too good and started to sand them down in preparation for re-coating with Polyurethane. I noticed that there are a few areas where the black sealant between the planks is missing. Is this black silicone, sikaflex or...

  17. Any LRC owned have drawing CED38?

    I thought I had a pretty much complete set of drawings for my LRC, but just discovered that I am missing CED38, referenced by another 32V Drawing. I believe CED38 is a drawing of the DC panel/fuse box in the engine room. From what I can tell the "Parallel solenoid" should be in this panel, but...

    I've used Colinite Metal polish on some of the stainless fittings on the front deck (cleats, etc). They looked great for a few weeks but are not starting show moderate surface rusting. The fittings I didn't clean are still fine, although they could use cleaning. Is there something I should...

  19. Starting Batteries for 32v - DC180-8'?

    Looking to build a new starting bank for a 4-71 DD. Existing battery setup is one bank having four 8v195's that is connected to start both engines. I'd prefer not to use the large 8v195's in the new bank and have found a battery recommended by DC Battery Specialists in Miami. I've used this...

  20. Bottom paint - 58LRC (How many gallons and approx cost)?

    I saw on another thread that a 58' takes about 4 gallons off paint, but it wasn't clear if that was for one or two coats. I'm guessing only one coat. Also, I've checked a few marinas around here (SW Florida) and they are getting around $100/ft to haul and 2 coats of paint. $580 to...
