  1. ANOTHER Battery Question

    Just as we're finishing prep for a departure southbound, I get "notice" that my ship's service battery bank is "low". And that's right after it came off a week on shore power so I know I have an issue. Ship's service is provided through 4 Deka 8D batteries (4 years old). I'm in Canada so...

  3. 32v To 12v Converter question

  4. Shower valve assembly

    I had a shower valve fail on my '79 43C this past weekend. The element looks a lot like a standard Moen replacement, but the O-rings are not in the same location. Anybody know if this is a marine specialty unit? And, if so, where to find one? Oh, and God forbid it simply fail at the dock. I...

  6. Why does the Onan Generator stop?

    The last trip out, Lilly Marie's generator, an 08 Cummins Onan 9kw MDKBL stopped. The aft fuel tank was low, so I switched to the fwd tank, it started fine but when I put on a load it stopped in a few minutes. I checked fresh and raw water cooling, that was OK, but the Racor 500 primary filter...

  7. Sharkbite Technology

    I just plumbed my refrigerator at home for water. It became an engineering tour deforce, as I did not want to use a cheap saddle fitting to tap the water, or use the 1/4" copper flex line. Instead, I ran 1/2" copper, with a couple on/off valves and several fittings. I sweat fit some of the...

  12. Capitol Gears - water in oil

    An update !!! Problem was not the oil cooler at all. It turns out that the gear box vent is under the Sea Water pump and dip stick tube is on the side. A water leak developed in the pump's cover plate spraying water into the vicinity of both. Good thing it happened because removing the pump's...

  13. 12V71TI's to 12V71N's

    I did a quick search and believe I found the answer, but just wanted to confirm... We're currently looking at a Hatt with 12V71TI's. The original engines went 5800hrs and were obviously very well maintained. The engines were rebuilt, and have gone 3300hrs to date. They pass the cold start...

  14. Which Thru Hull Strainer Screen Design for A/C?

    I have had enough fun with picking 4"-5" fish out of my A/C intake sea strainer basket about once a week. I noticed when the boat was hauled out on survey that there was no screen on the outside of the hull. The survey noted that it was "missing", so there was one there at one time. At any rate, I...

  17. FlowScan tach

    Does anybody else have a problem with trying to get the Flowscan tach to read anywhere close to the right rpms? The rpms I care about most are in the 1900-2300 range, and I'm indicating more than 100 rpms higher than true at those speeds. That's the closest I can bring it with the switch settings...
