Sky, I contacted Kraus-Naimer and they said there is supposed to be a compression ring that I need to remove before I slide the shaft out. I'm not at the boat so I have not had a chance to look at it. Is it as simple as taking a pair of needle nose pliers and pulling the shaft out? When I got...

I have a 48 Long Range Cruiser. Two of the selector switches on the panel were missing knobs to turn the selector switch. I got replacement knobs from another LRC that sank in Ft. Meyers. Replacement knobs won't fit. The new knobs won't reach the selector shaft. What is the trick to these knobs?

My port tachometer quit working on the flybridge and in the pilot house. Anyone know how to resolve this? Thanks, Kevin

I'm looking for a 12v Galleymaid macerator pump. Needs to be good or rebuildable. Thanks

Is there any reason to use RAZ Marine over just sending my pumps back to Galley Maid for a rebuild? One pump leaks and the other just hums. I don't really want to rebuild them myself but I would if I thought I could be successful doing it. What are your experiences? Thanks,

I have a Charles 9000 32v charger for sale. Pick up in the Nashville, TN area or I'll ship it on your dime. $350 plus shipping

I just purchased a 1968 34C. I'm new to this class of vessel. The boat is located in Michigan City, Indiana. I live in Tennessee. I'm tempted to drive the boat from Lake Michigan to Lake Barkley, Ky where it will be slipped (via the Illinois, Mississippi, Ohio, Cumberland rivers). My other...
