  1. Flexseal?

    Anyone got experience using the Flexseal product? I'm usually suspicious of TV carpet bombing ads for a product.. This may have quite a few uses in marine situations.

  2. Seeking Prop advise for a 48C

  3. aftermarket Detroit Diesel Valves

    Hi, anyone ever use any aftermarket Detroit engine parts. 671's (450hp). I'm going with all OEM liners and pistons but I could save $1K by getting aftermarket valves. OEM are $61 each vs. $18 each aftermarket. There also seems to be a bunch of different aftermarket sources. Anyone have any...

  4. Hynautic steering repair surprise

    We went out yesterday, and on the way back I discovered that the FB helm didn't work. Today, after studying steering repairs on the forum I gathered up fluid and tools and went down to the boat. The fluid level was fine, the pressure was less than 5 psi. After putting in 30 lbs of air I went...

  5. Hynautic Steering Mystery--Solved?

    Some of you may recall that Fanfare has the very first Hynautic hydraulic steering (it was then the Fluid Controls Corp.) of any stock Hatteras yacht. Up until my father insisted on Hynautic the Crowell steering system was used. Shortly thereafter Hatteras became their best customer. You...

  6. Cruisair Unit Won't Respond

    I have 4 units onboard my 53 MY. At survey everything was fine and just bought boat this Friday the 7th! Came down and fired up heat and all but one unit comes on. It is the saloon unit and the display doesn't light as well. Played with the breaker and think that may be the issue. Are there any...

  7. 45C Head question

    Short version of a long story...haven't been on the boat in a couple of years as I kinda washed my hands of it while others "tended" to her. Well, that's changed and I'm getting to know her again. While sorting out various problems, I noticed the fresh water tank was empty and the fresh water...

    I'm replacing the output seal on my M20. The output shaft nut is torqued to 400 ft/lbs so I need a good 3/4 drive spanner socket to contact all four dogs. Here is the nut: And here is what I need: Anybody got one or know where I can pick one up?

  11. original salon side windows on 1966 Hatteras 41 CV

    I'm in the process of buying a 1966 Hatteras 41' CV and I want to discover what the factory side windows in the main salon were like. Were they sliding glass with aluminum frames OR were they solid Lexan mounted in mahogany frames? The boat I'm looking at has the Lexan/wood windows.

  12. Odd readings on battery meters

    Hi All, Like many here in the north east we leave our batteries in the boat during the winter layup. The charger is left on so when the yard is open they can stay charged. Recently the yard unbeknownst to me has been shutting the breakers off all day for multiple days in a row. I had...

  14. The myth of hull efficiency...or is it fact?

    Seeing that the forum is at a bit of a lull, I thought it would be fun to debate an interesting aspect of these boats. It is hull design and its pros and cons. I've read in more than a few places that into the late eighties and beyond, Hargrave 'cleaned up' the new hull designs for more...

  16. Towing a whaler with a 44' Tri-cabin

    I just bought my boat at the end of last summer, didn't get much chance to run her before laying her up for the winter while I work on her. Looking for a tender to match the boat. Will be mostly on the hook, not in a slip, and living aboard. Bought a 1980 15' whaler hull a couple months ago, no...

  20. parallel switch

    Quick question... on the parallel switch, it's labeled port and starbord. Do you tilt the toggle toward the good side or the bad side to boost the bad side. Example, starbord battery bank low, tilt the parallel switch to the port side? Thanks
