I currently have my transformer set up with boost switches. It has been working like a champ since last year. While on the boat at the end of last week, I noticed that the voltage in either direction now shows 208 volts on the meters. What could have changed?

I just wanted to put this out there to all of my fellow HOFers. I am the Administrative Officer of the Shrewsbury Power Squadron her in central New Jersey. Next Wednesday, May 12th, we have our general membership meeting at the Atlantic Highlands Yacht Club. As a guest speaker, I am having an...

Has anyone ever effectively used solar vents retrofitted into their hatches to help prevent dampness in the cabin areas? Any other recommendations to reduce moisture during the regular season to promote airflow? Problem mainly occurs during Spring and Fall as there seem to be larger...

I got an email from Luke Brown about a 61 MY listed with them. Recent price drop makes it look very attractive. I think it was listed for under $300k. Interior looks beautiful. Maybe someone of the forum that's been looking for a beauty will snatch this one up.

Related to my posts "Dock Electric may be faulty", I'm looking for a replacement Airpax 4 pole breaker with GFI to replace my "faulty" one. Any source for this needle in a haystack would be appreciated. If I can get the part number, I'll add it to the post. This is for Service Distribution...

This weekend we determined from our electric panel that there must be some sort of problem with our dockside electric. On generator, everything on the boat worked fine. On dockside, Service Panel No. 4 (110 volt) kept tripping the breaker. Turning the dial on my volt meter indicated that...

Detroit Diesel Website for Old DDA Engines - 08/05/2009 Believe it or not there are still 300,000 of the old 2-cycle Detroit Diesel engines on the road and in boats all over the world – out of the 3.5 million that were built since 1940. A high percentage of those old diesels in are in...

While I'm rebuilding my 110v Galley Maid Water Pump, I thought I would throw out the idea to the gurus on this forum to revamp my freshwater system. Right now, I have freshwater hose coming from tank into a splitter and going into the 32v Galley Maid pump and the other into the 110v Galley Maid...

I think Sparky is on to a good thing. I wanted to post this one to put a smile on some of your faces. A husband and wife came for counseling after 20 years of marriage. When asked what the problem was, the wife went into a passionate, painful tirade listing every problem they had ever had in...

I have a coolant leak on a couple of cylinders on my 1271TIs. We pulled the valve covers and pressurized the fresh water cooling system and looked for leaks around the injectors and have found two so far. We took the injectors out of the two suspect cylinders and peered down the hole of the...

I was wondering if another column can be added in the membership list for home ports or even as detailed as marinas/clubs. It would make it easier to identify members that we may have the opportunity to meet in our travels both by boat and by land. It may also make setting locations for...

Did anyone else get this email today? Buy a new car? Fuel up your new Hatteras and travel further? Upgrade your electronics or purchase accessories for your new yacht? We can help provide whatever you need to make the time you spend on your new Hatteras Yacht more enjoyable. For a...

When are we going to see some pictures already. While all of you in Southern FL had the opportunity to party this past weekend, I was in the process of winterizing my boat for the season. Your pictures will help ease the pain. Please post before I have to admit myself to the psych ward.

I have both an AC and a DC (32 volt) Galleymaid water pumps (Model 10) on my boat. I usually only use the AC pump. I was away for a week and when I came back to the boat, the pressure switch didn't shut down the pump when there was no pressure, so the pump continued to run..and run...and run...

I just got an email from Luke Brown, the listing broker of my friend's Hatteras. Mo, my friend, passed away last October. This was his second love, after his family. He treated this boat as good as one of his children. In the last couple of years before he passed, he had a "lift" installed...

A couple of years ago, my boat was hauled for the winter. The yard required that two drain plugs be installed in the hull so the boat wouldn't fill up with water on land. In the spring, they attached a green wire to the fitting on the inside of the hull to connect it to the grounding system...

I have a 1980 60' Hatteras Sportfish located in New Jersey. I have the original Hynautic R-04 Reservoirs (one on each side; original with rectangular sight glass on exterior) for a three station setup. The port throttle would not get the engine above 1,400 rpms and the rpms would continue to...

This is actually for my parents' boat. They have twin 8v92's with 735 HP, vintage 1985. The port engine will not get above 1,700 RPMs. Boat was hauled a couple of weeks ago. New bottom paint, cutlass bearings, and both props were changed out because the props that were on there needed...

Other than Brewer's Capri Marina, can anyone recommend any of the other marinas/yacht clubs in Port Washington for a weekend trip? They would have to accomodate at least two boats in the 55-60' range with 50 amp electric service.
