I have a water leak where the hose connects the copper tube running from the thermostat to the heat exchanger. The engine is a 671ti 390 hp Covington. The copper tube measures 2.25 inches OD and the hose slips over the tube. Hope it is just a matter of replacing the hose. Advice on the correct...

I am the proud owner of a 1981 Hatteras MY and need some help with a repair. ALthough I have been a boater for many years, this is my first "Hat". I am told that the washer/dryer has a leak at the bottom of the washing machine. I am not sure where the proper access to the unit is or what is...

Left of the centerline of the window there were some holes drilled in the fiberglass. The ones near the floor are wet and the core is rotten. It is a small...

I've moved my 52c onto a T dock and will be tied along side using fenders. The dock has some exposure to small amounts of wave action and winds. I'm using two large stacked fenders per piling (secured to boat) for a total of three sets. I have used this setup for short stays under similar...

Hi Gang, and Happy New Year! Santa dropped a good one under our tree, or shall I say he put a whopper in the tank. We pumped out recently without issue. However, the tank tender started to read oddly right away. It maxed out with one or two pumps. So I pulled the tender tube from the fitting on...
