    I believe it is time to start a thread just for documenting the slow restoration I am doing on the former Captain Dan now Hatattack a 1966 34 Convertible with twin 3160 Cats (non-functional).

  2. What does the future hold for our old Hatts?

    I keep looking at some of the Hatts on ebay and such that sell for next to nothing and it got me thinking. What will be left of these old boats in another 20 or 30 years? I know we always talk about how well built they are, but I see more and more just deteriorating due to lack of use and lack...

  13. Cruisair trouble

    Hey guys - Cruisair for the salon is acting really funny. Listening to it it runs for about 6 seconds then BUZZES for 2 seconds (loud mechanical sounding buzz).

    This may be a little premature, but I thought I would start a thread which shows what Zimmerman Marine Inc. is doing on Blue Note's repower. Since we have a number of owners with similar boats, at least one of whom is doing something similar, I thought it might be useful. Please post if you have...

  16. Engine Oil - Napa=Valvoline

    About to buy 5, 5 gallon pails of oil for my oil change. Based on comments here, I will stay away from Rotella T 40 weight and go with either Valvoline All Fleet Plus (70501) or Napa 75118 which I am told is the identical oil. Only problem is that the Napa website lists the API for their part...

  18. Hatteras Production numbers

    I enjoy looking at the brochures on Sams site and I often wonder how many of a certain model were built. Does anyone have those numbers? It would be nice if Sams could obtain them from Hatteras or whoever knows and add them in a column next to the years listed on the brochure page.
