Well... miracles do happen. Just got the word yesterday that my 20 kW Northern Lights generator finally made its way to the local distributor in Charleston, SC. Ordered in September... so only took 9 months.
Now I have to start planning the install. My salon has carpeting and I can't see the...

The water level between Norfolk and Albemarle sound is down over four feet due to the low pressure system off the eastern seaboard. This will make travel a little sketchy between these locations...
These photos were taken at Mile Marker 12 at Great Bridge, VA.
Thanks again for the heads up on the washers. If I didn't know that in advance, I might have not even noticed them much less be aware to count them to ensure the new rollers go on correctly.
Just one of the GREAT things about this site!
A couple other things I noticed.... the screws holding...
I have a 1976 58LRC and have the pilot house doors off for painting and refurbishing.
The rollers don't work as well as they used to... want to replace them "while I'm there"... called Sam's Marine and they don't know the manufacturer or have these in stock.
Anyone have any ideas??..
This yacht pulled into Atlantic Yacht Basin this weekend. As luck would have it she is in the same shed I'm in.. not a Hatteras.. but what a gorgeous vessel... I met the gentleman that did the complete restoration.... super interesting...I've been promised a tour at some point.... :o enjoy...
So I've been searching around the St. Pete area for an annual slip for Miss Maggie.
BTW... not so easy to find a slip these days for a 62' LOA with 18' beam.
One marina that may be able to accommodate me has a litany of "rules" that I'm just not accustomed to coming from boating in New...
Yes I did... I used a grinder and made several notch cuts and then either cut each one off or hand worked it until it came off. Used the grinder the best I could to "smooth" out the cut.... but it's tight quarters....
I'm the new owner of some nice seats for my flybridge. The seat structure needs some basic refurbishment.... sanding and paint.
Also need someone to make some custom cushions and seat covers.
I'm new to the St. Pete, FL area and was wondering if I could get a referral for someone that can do...
Well... after extensive troubleshooting... (just kidding).... solved the problem.... not a bad valve... not a clogged line.... the most hideous of all problems.... other people working on your boat and doing things they don't remember and actually shouldn't be doing....
As most of you know, I...
So I haven't done any troubleshooting on this issue at all. When I recommissioned the master head from winterizing, the water does not pump into bowl when the foot pedal is pressed.
Is there a small solenoid valve or other actuating device that allows the water to enter the bowl when the foot...
Due to my generator being delivered 4 months late.... looks like I will be heading south from Chesapeake, VA to St. Pete Florida late April-Early May.
I'd rather not shotgun the trip with 10 hours running days on end. Originally planned to just take my time over several weeks, but now I have...
Interesting as that was the very first spot we tried to pull water from. My 671's are naturals and "may" not have the high flow water pump that TI's normally have. The ABT Yard Manager did say that they have used that spot successfully on DD 671's in the past.
I'm also pretty sure that the...
We tried the fitting immediately after the raw water pump as pictured below.... still no love... going with the dedicated 12V pump that will be wired with an oil pressure sensor on the engine. When the engine starts... the pump will start...
