  1. Capilano Hydraulic Cylinder - Rebuild?

    My steering has become very sluggish. I had bled the system and topped off the hydraulic fluid a few weeks ago. The steering was better but far from optimum. I have noticed a small leak at the lower helm and thought that might be the problem. However, it appears I have more than one issue. ...

  4. Excited for the 2021 Season..

    So yesterday we finally got a chance to take the boat out for a shakedown run after last season's tremendous amount of engine work, trying to remediate some water issues with the engines we have been having for some time. After replacing the head on the port engine, new injectors and a bunch of...

  5. Galley Maid Toilet stops working - seems pumpout related

    My daughter and SIL recently bought a '79 37C and are still learning the systems. Twice now the Galley Maid toilet has stopped flushing - no water in and nothing get pumped out. Both times it has happened were when they had the tank pumped out. They haven't found any sort of tank tender gauge so...

  6. 51 Hatteras 8v92T fuel issues

    So today I had a rookie mishap, I think. I started the boat, and she ran fine for about 3-5 minutes, then the port engine shut down. I went below and found the fuel manifold we switched off. I then checked and found the Racors were still full, but the secondary filter was dry. I refilled the...

  8. Fuel fill hose replacement

    1984 53 EDMY. Going to replace both diesel fuel fill hoses, I am mechanically inclined, but also not as young as I once was. Is this an owner/operator level project or must hire job?

  9. Shaft Alignment

    Last year when I had the boat out of the water I noticed the port side shaft was sitting very low where it comes through the hull and looked to be rubbing. When I had it back in the water I decoupled it and raised the engine up to where it aligned. I assumed over 30 years the engine had settled...

  14. It's oil change time.... never done it.

    I'm assuming I do not have an oil change system/pump built in. Does anyone have a picture of what they look like? I have never seen one so don't know what I am even looking for. Just thought I would double check before getting an oil pump setup. Thank you in advance :)

  15. 63 CPMY vs 58 Yachtfish rolling in seas

    I recently sold my 63 CPMY and am looking at a 58 YF. In beam seas with stabilizers my 63 would still roll a little. With a beam reduced by 2 feet does the YF roll very much with stabilizers? I plan on boating in the PNW. Thanks

Shafts are 2 1/2" like 8V92's would run in this boat, from what I have read. Anyone know of any issues specific to this particular model? I like the 71...
