  2. 64 Lowland

    Does anyone know anything about his boat? She is listed in Annapolis. Also, on this forum, we have discussed the costly upkeep for an aluminum boat. Does that also apply to a steel bot like this? Any thoughts on the make, model, condition and upkeep for this vessel would be greatly appreciated. ...

  4. Anchor Alarm

    Perhaps a question to which the answer should be obvious but...... Assume water that is 12 ft. deep. Your bow pulpit is 6 ft. above the water. You want a 7:1 scope and so you let out 140 ft. of chain. There is a tide and when you anchor, the wind is with the tide. Satisfied your anchor is...

  8. Distilled water in 50/50 coolant mix?

    Is it necessary to use distilled water in the closed coolant system on Detroits? My mechanic says not really, but others seem to believe that tap water has minerals that could damage the engine. I used tap water in the 50/50 mix in the CATs on TUCANDU, did a coolant check with every oil change and...

  11. Mast Rigging

    I am restoring my newly purchased 1969 41' TC and I currently have the mast in my shop for refurbishment. It seems to me that a mast should have rigging to allow the flying of flag(s).

  13. Steering Loss

    Last year I had my steering ram rebuilt. I heard Hynautic had been sold and I wanted to get their seal set while it was still available. Fanfare has the very first Hynautic steering system ever installed in a Hatteras, so I guess it is the oldest too. My Dad insisted Hatteras use this, and after...

  14. Stream Pandora on Boat Stereo System

    I rarely use the stereo system aboard my 56MY. However, lately I have been listening to Pandora streaming via my Ipad or Cell Phone.
