  1. Removal of broken SS bolt from aluminum?

    It's been so long since I've had a broken bolt that I've forgotten my removal lesson. :mad: When disassembling and removing my aluminum railing on my flybridge, one of the four stainless bolts that holds the whole thing together (the rest of the joints are welded) broke when I was unscrewing...

  2. Genny exhaust fittings through the soundshield

    I went down into the genny room to poke around and look at things. I saw that the 2" exhaust hose which runs between the Vernalift and the elbow that passes through the sound shield was bulging, about ready to rupture, and in need of replacement. After much work wrestling that piece of hose off,...

  3. When do I resume diver services after fresh bottom paint?

    I’m in the yard getting blasted, barrier coated, and Micron 66 antifouling paint. When I get back home and life returns to normal again, what should I tell my diver? Is there some amount of time that you typically don’t want anyone scrubbing on it? I don’t want my fresh paint scrubbed off or...

  4. What is the proper location for the tee fitting in the wet exhaust?

    Ed and I are going to replace some of the exhaust hoses while we're replacing all of the morse cables. One engine is simple-looking and the other is a cluster-f*&k of what appears to be too much hose curled all over the place and we'd like to clean that up and reduce some of the unnecessary hose...

  5. Bonding Scoops?

    Do intake scoops get bonded? We are installing four strainer scoops on the four new air conditioner intakes. These are the old toilet intakes that have a seacock and mushroom through hull. We are merely attaching a scoop to the underside of the hull that is not incorporated into the seacock or...

  6. Trash Compactor

    I am about to start my galley remodel, having just ordered new cabinets, some of the appliances, etc. In the plans, I have a trash compactor going in. I’d like some opinions/recommendations on trash compactors from those of you who have some history with them either on your boat or in your home. ...

  7. White "Drinking" Water Hose

    I have a white water hose situation and am wondering if anyone else has encountered this. I have a "drinking water" hose connected to my boat. As a full-time liveaboard, water doesn't sit for long in that hose. I have tried a variety of white drinking water hoses. West Marine's hose separated...

  8. What light fixtures are you using when updating with new headliner?

    I am beginning to tackle the job of replacing the headliner. I intend to use removable panels that are covered in a thin foam-backed vinyl. While I’m in there, I want to start replacing the overhead lighting fixtures, and I’d like to go with recessed dimmable LED lights. There isn’t a lot of...

  9. Insulation

    I am going to, in the not too distant future, start planning to replace the headliner. Mine is the original perforated headliner and I want to put in new panels that are easily removable, with batton strips, and a solid material. This will also afford me the opportunity to update the ceiling...

  10. Removing Slider Window Frames

    Ed and I have searched for the forum, and read all of the applicable threads, and we are stuck. We are trying to remove a window frame that has proven to be the one of two sources of leaking water down inside the aft deck wall and into the master stateroom below. We can’t fix the interior teak...

  11. Freeing a Stuck Reversing Valve on AC

    On my newer CrapAir unit, it appears the reversing valve is stuck. It will operate and blow heat like I've died and gone to hell, but it won't go the other direction and cool. Condensing unit runs, but just won't push the gas back the other way. Unit was new in December 2007, so I think it might...

  12. Micron 66 - how many gallons....?

    Does anyone know approximately how many gallons of Micron 66 I need to coat the bottom of a 58' Hatteras (15' 10" beam)? The specs say one gallon will cover 320 square feet, but I've never had to measure my hull for square footage of the surface that is underwater. I plan to do two coats and a...

  13. Heat Exchanger/Radiator Anatomy

    Calling all you Detroit breathing/bleeding gurus.... The heat exchanger/radiator "box" on the front of my starboard engine has to come off and get refurbished. A gasket or two started leaking the last time we went out and the whole thing turned to crap quick. There was salt cakes on the floor...

  14. How many rings of packing for the stuffing box?

    We just had our stuffing boxes repacked. Our guy used the black/gray Gore stuff and he put six rings in the stuffing box. We cannot get it to leak at all, and during our first run thereafter, mostly at idle speed, the stuffing boxes would not drip and they did get warm - about 150°. We didn’t go...

  15. How do the head sinks come out?

    OK...I give...how do the bathroom sinks come out? I've disconnected the water pipes, cut through what I suspect is 5200 underneath, released the tie down clamps (those were apparently just for show), and it still won't budge. I'm trying to get the sink out unscathed, and without tearing up the...

  16. What would cause a compressor seizure in a brand new AC unit?

    I swear I have the WORST luck with air conditioning! I got a whole three days of running out of a brand new 16K self-contained unit (ran it in cool mode for 1 day, then heat mode for 2 days). Now, the compressor is seized. Everything else is working just fine - fan, pump, digital control,...

  18. What is the best/proper sealant for this?

    I hope this isn't like asking which is the best toilet. :D I've been removing my flybridge rails so I can fix the leaks. I plan to re-bed them with white butyl when they go back up, after repairing any coring damage below. It's amazing how much water gets in these rails, given that the joints...
