  3. C02 Fire Suppression Cert

    I searched through some old threads but don't see the answer to my specific situation. I've been asked by my insurance carrier to provide a current list of approved extinguishers onboard. I noticed today that the 75# C02 tank in the starboard engine room had a recent inspection/cert date of 2021....

  6. Cruisair Amerage Draw

    The salon Cruisair unit on my 56 MY has started to draw a lot of amps, albeit only for a split second (like 1/10th of a second). When the compressor kicks on, it will draw anywhere between 60-80 amps and then drop down to normal draw. Other than the amperage spike the unit seems to be working fine....

  9. Hatteras Door Locks

    Not sure this qualifies as a technical question but here we go. My 1976 LRC uses exterior door locks that use a "bit key/skeleton key", with the lock mechanism providing a see through path to the inside. I would like to have locks that limit the breeze and bugs that use these paths. Anyone aware of...

  16. 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...

  19. AC pump trigger workaround

    I'm meeting a friend on his boat, and the AC RW pump is apparently not firing on either unit. I suspect bad triggers, but how can we wire the pump to stay on as a temporary fix in the relay box? Its a mid 80's hatt like ours. Thanks in advance.

  20. This may have been discussed before so I'm sorry... But I have to ask.

    With the loss of Pau Hana in Hurricane Ian, I had a list of unfinished/never started projects that I came across this morning. One of them was to "restore" the shore water connection on the side of the deckhouse, instead of the improv connection thru the starboard engine room vent. While we are...
