I run a '79 43C (same layout as the 45C). I have a TV jack located on the shelf in the salon inside the forward windows, directly above the Master suite. I want to replace the antenna run with a tv cable run to the same spot. The cable comes into the cabinets over the master bunk, from the stbd...

I really hate to cut up my cockpit deck, but I guess I have no choice. My tanks are trash. Rhode Island boat. 1967 34c. I remember gasohol in the mid '80s when I lived in Ct. Anyway, I am trying to decide if I can cut ALL the way around my coring and pull the deck in one big piece. Or if I...

I finally rigged some scaffolding up to access the top of the radar arch today. I managed to remove the old 3.5' 48 mile Furuno open array this afternoon. Now I am planning my assault on removing the old radar cable and pulling the new radar cable, 3 cables (2 coax and one control) for the new...

Now that I am ready to start I see the wire chase for all the bridge wiring, hydralics etc go through the chase...

Some of the chrome is beginning to flake off on the base of my Galley Maid windlass. The boat has always been in fresh water so guess that's why it has lasted 27 years! Any suggestions on a fix? Was thinking about using a chrome spray paint after some light sanding to prevent any rusting. Thxs.

Has anyone found a suitable vent cover for those ugly round vents in the heads and galley? Mine seem to be beyond cleaning or restoration.
