I need to get some new batteries, and I called Sams. They have an 8v battery that some previous posts have mentioned, but it is much smaller than my current batteries in size, so i am assuming that it is not correct. I only need to replace the starboard bank, and it is for starting only. Will...

I need to get some new voltmeters for the 32v system. Anyone have any Idea who makes them anymore?

I got bad news today from the Machine shop. Both of my heads are cracked in what the guy called the "Dog Bone" area. Unfortunetly, I need to get some heads, and Detroit wants 5K for 2 heads. Does anyone have a better source for heads, or does anyone have an extra set of heads around that have...

We now know the cause of our engine failure was because of somethign I least expected. The intercooler, which was just pressure tested and rebuilt by the radiator shop in november sprung a saltwater leak somewhere and sent saltwater through the airbox. Which in turn caused it to seize while...

Since we are in the stage of tear down on our engines to rebuild, I have been looking at rebuild kits. But while I was doing that, I asked the parts counter to look up what was the origional injectors in our boat. When I replaced an injector that was bad previously, I found that it was not the...

Is there a place any of yall recomend to purchase rebuild kits for 8v92s. We are getting ready to rebuild both engines and would like to get the best parts price possible.

My dytek battery charger is over charging and boiling the water out of my batteries and I am having to put water in all the time. I was not sure if it would be better to send it in somwhere for repair, or to replace it. I have only found 2 32v chargers. One by Charles and one by marine...

When we purchased our boat the cockpit freezer did not work. The unit is rusted into a pile of crap. I need to buy a new one, and i would like to have some suggestions as to a brand. Have any of you had to do this? It was suggested to me to change the plate out to a new one. I am not...

Anyone going to be there this weekend? I will be there all weekend.

I am sad to say that today I witnessed a Hatteras in the worst shape of any one I have seen to date. This boat had been torn apart, and was soposed to undergo a restoration, but for the last 10 years has sat in the water with absolutly not one bit of maintenance. The paint had been sanded away...

I got go run the boat finally after all the exhaust work today. But unofortunetly I now have a new problem. We have some sort of major oil leak on the front side of the starboard engine. It leaked somwhere between a quart and two quarts in a short 20 minute ride. Every thing was running good...

I am planning my redesign of my fuel system and was woundering if somone could shed some light on something for me. I was over at the boatdiesel forum and read a post from Tony Athens where he spoke of using Push-Lok fittings with regular A-1 Fuel hose and that it worked well for fuel delivery...

About march, I replaced all of my hoses for my holding tank because my holding tank was hooked up as a fuel tank in it's previous life. I am having a smell problem from the pump out hose. I used the "premium" PVC sealand hose to hook it up, but it has yellowed. over the weekend I flushed back...

I have 2 full lights and more parts of the origional salon lights in our boat. They are a teak square with a glass/aluminum cover in the center. I will have more soon too, as I am replacing all of the lights in the boat.

I have one 3 knob vertical control that was working when I took it out 6months ago, and I have a 5k btu air handler. I will have more parts soon. Make me an offer on these or they are going on ebay. The compressor died, so these worked when taken out.

I have some parts for a Wood Freeman Auto Pilot. I do not know what they are, nor do I have any other part of the Auto Pilot, so I do not know if they work. I can send some pics of the items. Make me an offer I can't refuse and they are yours.

This post is not intended to stir the pot, but I know we have had some issue on this forum reguarding posts. Is it possible to get a "general discussion" fourm that does not pertain to anything. Just pure discussion where the people can discuss things non boating/hatteras related. I hate to...

Ok, After taking all of my old exhaust blankets off yesterday I found what appears to be the leak. I am having trouble Identifying it. It appears that the exhaust leak is coming from the seal identified by the arrow on the right. The part on the right that is not painted was covered by an...

After finding my leak today, we have decided that since the headliner in the boat is cover with mold on the back side, that we probably should replace it. we are going to replace all of the headliner, but I have some questions. We do not like the perforated headliner that is origional from...

The only place I know of is Marine exhaust of Riviera Beach. Do you all know of any place other than them? Can they be made locally? What are the least expensive alternatives?
