  1. Delo 100 online?

    Anybody buying Delo 100 through an online retailer? My local DD is crazy priced for the old delvac at $45 per gallon. Oriellys auto parts at $25 seems the best game in town for gallons but I'd prefer 5 gallon pails. BTW just fueled from a truck with offroad at 3.77 gallon, not bad.

  2. Mask Yea or nay

    I painted the vertical supports between forward glass, corners to side glass, and between side fixed panel and sliders to update the look a bit. The bright white, to me, was too much contrast between the grey tint on side glass and even the clear glass of the forward panels. Too modern for an...

  3. Making an anchoring bridle

    Had a long chain on my 34. Got rid of it due to heavy snap in seas. Formed an opinion that I don't like much chain. Have had great results with only 20' of chain on both the 34 and now the 46. Think the success is due to setting properly, stern anchor when needed, or just simply paying attention on...

  7. windscreen wiper arms

    My '71 convertible has a lower station, so it has wipers to the left and right panes of the triple windshield. 99+% of the time there is a fabric cover over the windows, to control how how it gets in there and also to keep the windows from leaking when running the boat. The other day I found that...

  8. Foredeck coring question / Bow pulpit question

    It really seems that the coring on my foredeck is 5/8" balsa. People here have mentioned 3/4", and I reading the threads there were a few comments that the 5/8" was probably compressed 3/4" but I feel like it is 5/8". I have a 1972 43DC, does anyone have any opinion on that? Related, in...

    I saw this on another boating site. Thought I’d share it just in case somebody forgets to water their batteries.

  11. Few questions about fairing block transducers

    Doing some last minute touch up on the new bottom paint. This boat has several old transducers in the bottom that I believe have been abandoned or are no longer being used. I noticed one is a bit odd in that it has a couple of plastic ears that protrude down which holds a plastic ball about the...

  12. What diameter dock lines should I use?

    54' Hatteras, 81K pounds. Right now, most of the lines that came with the boat are 1" diameter but heavily frayed. I want to replace them but have 2 questions.... 1) What type of line (diameter and material) is best for a tying up a boat my size? 2) Is there a place that has good prices if I am...

  14. Simrad Auto Pilot compatibility

    I have an AP 25 (lower helm) and an AP 26 (upperhelm) and they work well, but the screens are burned out. I can replace the screens for about 850.00 for both or I can buy two new AP 44 controllers for 1080.00 My question is, would the newer controller be backward compatible with the AP...

  16. Really sad news Tom Slane

    Just was told Tom Slane has passed. Have known Tom since the mid 80's, just such a great person, always was there for us when we needed help, etc. I know he has been fighting it for a very long time, always with a such a positive attitude. I will miss him greatly, this community has lost probably...

  18. Galley Maid Windlass info

    My windlass has never been set up correctly, and I've actually never used it. The main anchor was missing when we bought the boat, also the chain. The backup anchor was in its place, with the rope going in the wrong spot. The windlass was never operational, etc... I eventually got power to it and...

    I have a 1981 61' MY model that got extended to 70' cpmy. I went back on the water tank recently and I run out of water ever couple days. I'm not a big water user, so I bought a flowmeter and tracked the amount of water going into the system. It overflowed at 58.9 gallons. This explains...

  20. Hynautic Steering - Need Advice

    Our flybridge steering unit is leaking like a sieve again. Pools of steering fluid in both forward corners of the flybridge. It just runs right out the center of the shaft. My mechanic tells me it's not a user-serviceable unit and that if it's leaking that bad I need to disconnect it and send it...
