  2. Low profile hoist system for ER or wherever

    I’ve been looking at these could be a back saver for battery change or wherever. Inspired buy Rusty’s engine rb thread. You can double them up for increased capacity

  3. My Engine Saga

    Tale of "watch who you let in your engine room". I wrote a little about this in another thread. It's basically impossible to get the marina to do engine service work these days. There is a labor shortage and as soon as they train somebody and send them to school to be a certified tech with cat,...

  4. Is there such thing as tuning for Detroit Diesel engines?

    I have twin DD 6-71 Naturally Aspirated engines on my 1980 Hatteras 37 with roughly 2500 hours on each and I believe Starboard engine had an overhaul done in the past bit I do not have records and cannot guarantee that. Engines are running well. Start easily and in winter if I warm them up with a...

  5. cockpit hatch rubbers

    Our 1986 36C has L shaped rubber edging on each cockpit access hatch. I bought new ones from Sam's about 5 years ago. They just don't stay glued in place. I have tried several brands of contact cement but they always fall off. Has anybody found a good replacement or some magic way of getting the...

  6. Question about bow thruster use...

    In the marina where I am right now, I observe lots of boats turning 90 degrees to come in since I'm not too far from the entrance which is perpendicular to the main channel. Recently, like two or three times, I have seen boats coming in and hear their bow thrusters. My question is: do...

  7. Blackwater holding tanks, how are they set up?

    I have a 1980 53 MY, it has two holding tanks. Previous owner installed what appear to be 2 dometic lights, I am assuming one for each tank. I was told by the mechanic that they would turn yellow when almost full. So we were on the boat about 10 days and I noticed one of the lights came on red,...

  8. White panels under the helm teak rail on 43 DC

    I know this is a completely newbie question, but. I just finished a 2752nm trip from Chesapeake VA to Louisville KY, on my new (to me) 73 DC, and during that trek, itemized a number of "need to fix" items. There is damage to, and/or there are missing portions of the white panels that are under the...

  9. Transom leak

    On the port side, sea water is seeping from the transom into the boat. I have checked the exterior and there are no obvious signs of damage. Diver also looked underneath and found nothing. I noticed the leak a week after filling water tanks. When water tanks were full, well over a gallon a...

  10. AwlGrip polishing

    Something I don’t see discussed here too much, that I recall. AwlGrip wants you to apply and remove their AwlCare product by hand. Are people really hand applying this stuff to 50/60/70 foot boats, or is there sort of a conservative machine application method that makes it a bit easier? Or...

  13. Any trim tab detectives?

    This is an image looking directly down the transom of a 1970 53' MY at what appears to be the port trim tab. Some sort of recent event seems to have dislodged the (non-working) trim tabs placing one askew. I can only think the entire piano hinge must have let go at the pivot point and it is...

  14. Battery Charger Fuses

    I just installed a new 32 volt Sterling battery charger in the boat. The old charger does not appear to have any fuses at least that I am seeing. None on the engine batteries. Are there fuses somewhere else or should I be installing some? The charger puts out 20 amps at 36 volts my...

  15. Custom-ish docklines?

    Do these look familiar to anyone? Looking for double braided lines with this color pattern. I asked the owner of the boat but he just said the rope shop in Florida, which, while I looked at a couple of places online, I haven't been able to find this. Kind of a cool color scheme for these...

  16. Inter protect and micron csc coverage

    I'm starting to think about doing the bottom of my 1973 42c. There are no blisters or other problems, its just time to get rid of the 49 years of layers and I would like to redo my boot stripe. The issue is trying to calculate the amount of material required for coverage. If anyone has done a boat...

  19. Hardtop material

    What do you call that stuff on a pipe welders type hardtop? You know, it sounds like a drum when you tap it - looks like fabric but feels hard? Anyway, mine is starting to degrade because you can see whiteness where it drips on the windows and isinglass. I wonder if I dare to roll a coat of...
