Sorry to ask an easy one but for those who fish on board and who use a cutting board or bait board, where do you store the board when not in use. No matter how well it is cleaned, the board always ends up stinking and I was curious where folks keep the board when not in use.

Will the 8-71N last as long as the 6-71N In comparable boats? Boats like the 43 verses the 53? Will you get the same amount of hours with each? What type of cruise and speed can I expect with a 53 with 8-71N. I ask this because I have a lead on a early 70/53MY with 8-71Ns. I want to get a live...

Does any one know if I can access the dryer vent duct on a series I 48 MY from the closet behind it and avoid taking out the stacked machine? I either have a kink or a lint restriction that needs to be corrected. Bob

Back in November I posted a similar thread title. Good responses, thank you, but no positive cure. I've been getting smoke and miss for perhaps 20 seconds at start. It's a 4 cylinder MDJC 12KW, 1972. After the post I noticed a tiny amount of diesel fuel, drops not teaspoons in the pan and...

Just putsin' around with some varnish; some of the stuff cleans up and looks nice, bit the trim is really dark. Even after some agressive sanding, and a liberal bath with acetone, it looks like black walnut. Did the PO maybe change that out? Ive never seen teak that dark. Even the stair bannisters...

Thinking about upgrading from the old rotary knobs to the SMXII controls. according to Cruisair's web site it seems to be "plug and play" it would be nice to program the controls to cycle on and off when I am away to just remove the Humidity in the summer. Anybody have any experience installing or...
