We had several screw heads break off on the stbd rub rail near the bow. I was able to get all but three out so I am doing the repair tomorrow. Is there something less messy than resin? Also going to re-caulk all filler caps on stbd side also. Looks like they have NEVER been done. Is there...

Our boat is fairly leak free however we have developed a fairly large leak OVER the forward starboard port light in the master. It only leaks during rain. It is getting the headliner wet and water is accumulating on top of the valance. This area is hard to access. I do not have any water...

Our boat has had a Starboard list since we have owned her and it drives me nuts ! The only thing we suspect is the PO allowed the new generator to be installed further to the right than the old one. We can find nothing else out of place and the list is the same when the boat was empty including...

Our 12volt Ideal windlass was persona non grata today when time to weigh anchor! Lucky for me we were in 5 feet of water and I had my 275 lb Son on board! Has been working fine with no issues. Today nothing does not have a breaker labeled I can find. Anyone have an easy troubleshooting guide? I...

Master head was slow to drain(old style Raritan). So I got the idea to rebuild it. First changed the Joker valve. it was a mess and needed changing. Flush was really no better so did the black water part. Had some rubbing on the impeller as it was loose on the shaft. Now no water transfer...

Anyone know the size of the water heater that originally came in the 43DC? Can't read the specs on the old unit. Also does anyone have experience with a 6 gallon unit? That seems to be the size that will fit in the original space. We do shower on the boat but we think the original was a 9...

Our boat has always had a Slight 2-3" lean (at the water line) to starboard. I have looked at everything. The only thing I am not sure of was the location of the original genset. The new one is just slightly port of center. Everything else is as new. I have moved all the tools to port as well...

So I had all the forms supplied by the wonderful people located here on the forum. We go to the Bay county tax office armed for battle. 45 minute wait. We go in and they proceed to tell us most forms are wrong! Nice people though and willing to help. After another 30 minutes of consultation in...

Good Evening All, Questions are about 6-71 TI's By Johnson and Towers and Capitol gears. Starboard Engine 1. I need some one to tell me the raw water flow route from strainer so I can look for a blockage. Main exchanger is less than 150hrs since overhaul. New impellers at the same time...
