  1. New Dink?

    Has anyone seen one of these? www.bossboats.com I have an old inflatable bottom Zodiac right now and was looking to get away from the inflation issues. I tried an 11 Whaller on my top, but the davit is in the wrong spot and the boat sticks out the side and looks a bit goofy up there. I...

  2. New Boat Sales - NOT

    Funny thing happened today. It shows that the boat sales industry is REALLY in trouble. I saw a new boat today, agreed on a price with the DEALER, (ie. cash plus my trade). The DEALER said it's a done deal subject only to the wholesaler picking up my boat. Deposit was given. I got a call back two...

  3. removing window frames

    I am going for a full paint job this winter, hull and topsides. I'm sure I will have many questions during the project, but first thing that comes to mind is the window frames. The boat is a 1976 46 c , we are going to paint her white and I would like the frames white as well. Are the frames hard...

  4. Water leaks and rebedding ports

    Well, TS Dennis located a few spots that need attention. The ports in the master ststeroom on our 48MY developed a slight wet area arount them following the days of rain. We had staining there when we bought the boat but it was dry to the moisture meter so thought the leak issue was corrected and...

  5. How many boating forums do you check

    Just wondering what other sites you visit. I know in my case I will go to Boat/US, Livingaboard,BoaterEd,SSCA, PassageMaker, Go Boating and The Cruising Life from time to time, but this Hatteras site is the one I visit every day.

  6. Creeeek

    We got into some short rollers(2-3') while waiting out a t-storm and the boat(1979 60' EB conv) creeked quite a bit when we were really getting rocked. Is this normal?

  7. NADA Guide - True or False?

    I am told that the NADA Guide Values are accurate values and should be used in negotiating the purchase of a used boat. Then I am told the guides are not a realistic determination of value and hold no place in negotiating the purchase of a used boat. I think all one has to do is compare the...

  8. "Yachts And Ships Of Jack Hargrave"

    Dr Jim mentioned this book in a thread a few days ago. I just received it from Amazon and have to add my recommendation. This is a marvelous book! The section on Hatt is really interesting. Folks here probably know the story but the first Hatt (found in South America and brought back and...

  9. Question Trucking a 38? $.02 requested

    Looking at 38 Hatt down in Staurt, FL area and wonder if any of you have any experience or horror stories on trucking boats 1/2 way across the country?

  11. Dripless shaft couplings

    Hey Guys, Considering purchasing and installing dripless during haulout this winter and have one major question. Shafts are original to boat, 1974 1 1/2" shafts, and I have never had them out of the boat. The research I have done stress the importance of a clean unscored shaft for the seals on...

  12. Question Leaking bolts on aft spray rails

    More newbe questions. As I continue to poke around the 48MY, I found several of the bolts that fasten the wood spray rail to the side of the hull are leaking or seeping. These are just a few inches above the water line and probably run almost submerged. The water runs onto the plywood behind...

    I am getting some kind of gear chatter from my fresh water pump. At least I think that is where it is coming from. My Mech. friend and I had were doing a seatrial on my boat after installing the newly rebuilt m20 port tranny. While the boat is idleing, there is a weird chatter coming from what we...

  17. Alternator output

    I've had to add alot of water to my batteries over the past two months. On July 4th I topped off all batteries and this past weekend I had to add 4.5 gallons to the starboard bank alone. I guessed that the Sentry charger on this boat was not operating properly, but while cruising home yesterday I...

  18. Isolation transformer; how hot do they run?

    I posed this question earlier in a mature thread and guess it got lost. The isolation transformer on my boat is almost too hot to touch. I'd guess 55C when running the four AC's etc.. Is that typical or do I need to get concerned? And if so, where can they be had? Bob

  20. Fuel Modulator adjustment on 892

    Had the mechanic up on the boat last week. Took care of a couple of little issues. This guy has always seemed pretty fair and pretty knowledgeable.
