  1. 58’ motoryacht props

    Hi everyone, this is my first post. In February I bought a 1977 58’ motoryacht with 435hp 871s and 2:1 Allison transmissions. Does anyone know the proper propeller for this boat? What’s on her now is one 28x30 and one 27x31. Supposedly they’ve been reconditioned to match each other. I’m having work...

  8. 50 volt voltmeter

    Both of my voltmeters went within months of each other. Sam’s is the only source I was able to find, but apparently there was a production error by their supplier. While the voltage reads correctly when power on, the needle doesn’t move when off. The only other 50 voltmeters I found were square...

  10. Oil in bilge on top of a lot of water. Best way to remove?

    Does anyone have any tricks on how to get oil out of the bilge when it is floating on a bunch of water? I have heard of using a shop vac and skimming the oil off the top as one option - hate the idea of trashing a shop vac though. Just wondering if there are any better ways. I don't want...

  11. True hull fitting

    On my 1976 58' Hatteras the true hull fitting operates only 1/4 of its turn radius and feels like some thing is blocking it to go full open, feels like there is something in the hole of the valve. Any help in solving the problem, short of an haul out, will be greatly appreciated. The thru hull...

  16. Correct Position of Throttle Cable and Spring

    The mechanic who tuned the engines last year said the position of the bolt and spring on the rocker that attaches to the throttle cable was incorrect in his opinion. If the cable snapped, the motor would go to full throttle as the spring pulled back. Unfortunately the mechanic has moved...
