  1. Tender recommendations

    I am looking for a 10' tender. I looked at what was available at the Miami show and I'm thinking about a Zodiac Yachtline 310 RIB or an Avon 310 RIB. Both are rated at 4 persons and 15hp. The Avon has 17" tubes vs 16" on the Zodiac and the Avon warranty is 10 years vs 5 on the Zodiac. Anybody...

  2. New Generator Size

    The old Onan 8KW generator is out of my 37C and now it's time to buy a new one. I'm going with a Northern Lights 6KW or 8KW. I've decided on the NL because of the positive posts I've seen here. But which NL? Obviously the 6KW will fit better and that's the one I want, but will it provide enough...

  4. Passing the (Baby) Hatt(s)

    Since acquiring my 1966 28" Hatteras SF project boat, I've learned that not very many of the 28'ers were made, 30 some SportFish and 60 some cruisers per the factory. I would like to track down as many as I can for the purpose of exchanging tips, stories, part sources, yada,yada, yada. Maybe...

  5. Phone on Bridge

    I am trying to locate a hard wired phone for the bridge on my 53C. Unfortunately I am on-call two weekends a month and must have a phone on board. I have a cell dock in the salon that hooks into a hard wired system. What I am looking for and can't seem to find is a corded handset to mount on the...

  6. Autopilot with Crowell Helm

    I'm planning on aquiring some electronics later this year and am starting my research. The problem I've encountered is with the autopilots - the hydraulic pumps require a return line to the helm. My Crowell Steering head doesn't have a third inlet for this return line. in fact the manual shows...

  8. 12 volt light fixture

    I have a light fixture just inside of my cabin door (38 fbdc)that has a fitting for a regular 120 vac bulb. Problem is, there is only 12 vdc going to the fixture. Where in the world do I find 12 volt bulbs with a 120 vac base on it? Thanks, Rick

  10. A Tall Man Needs Owners Comments

    I am 6 foot 8 inches tall with one son an inch taller. I am interested in comments from tall owners as to which yachts have the best head room. I viewed a classic 53 and that was not suitable.

  11. Clam Shells 58yf

    I just repainted my 58yf and installed all new Clam Shells. Does anyone know why the large clam shell on the port side in front of the engine room vents is open on both sides on most/all boats? Does this need to be this way? The new clam shell I installed is not.

  13. Lift assist for heavy ER acces steps

    We just had a couple of pneumatic rams (probably the wrong term) installed on the galley steps that lead to the ER. I use these stairs for all access to the ER and expected in a few years the weight would be too much for me. Anyway, the mech used the largest ram with the highest force that he could...

  19. House Battery Isolation

    Like all Hatteras boats (according to Hatteras) the port battery doubles as the house battery. During starting I get a voltage drop that knocks out my electronics. This causes some of the settings to reset to factory defaults. I was wondering if anyone has successfully isolated the DC house power...
