wrong place, sorry...can't seem to find the delete option

This just showed up on Yachtworld. Claims to be a factory white ash interior. Not sure how I feel about it other than it is unique. Seems to be proced very low for a very late 53...

Did a load of laundry today. Wash cycle did fine. Dryer is having problems. It came on and ran fine for a while. It appears to have stopped about 1/2 way through the cycle. Will not come back on. Absolutely no signs of life. This is a Kenmore "All In One" system. Checked the breaker, it seems...

Wehen using the pump (not city water connection) the water spts/surges as if here is large amounts of air getting in. Sort of like you would expect as you are running out of water. We have confirmed the thanks are full, and can't find any leaks. It's absolutely fine when running on city/domectic...

I can't seem to find the thread when searching. If your AC raw water pump stays on all the time, there was a wire to check to make sure it was hooked up right...can anyone help me out? What wire is it and what SHOULD it be hooked up to?

Well, the diswasher seems to be dead. Not totally dead...it fills and "runs" but stuff isn't getting clean. Like not at all. One thing after another seems to "work""..as in works enough to pass a quickie test by a surveyor but not work RIGHT enough to use. Bah! The washer arm (spinning thing at...

You have 4 8v batteries that are 270amp/hr batteries wired in series to give you 32v...do you still have 270 amp hours or do you now have 1080? I'm thinking that since they are in series, you have 270, it would only be 1080 if you paralleled them and then you'd ahve a larger capacity but at...

The wife was moving some of our stuff onto the boat and I suggested to her that there likely is storage space under the bunks in the mid cabin. The one by the outer hull has the AC airhandler under part of it and drawers for storage under the rest...turns out that there is no storage under the...

I mean truly HATE? With every ounce of your being? Earlier today, our little baby (dog) was mauled to death by anoter dog. The killer dug undr the fene between our house and then hosue behind ours and MAULED OUT BABY TO DEATH! I am so filled with HATE that I an hardly breath right now. I don't...

I know she has two banks, port and starboard. The port ones are in the genny room and the starboard are under the dinette (and a super PITA to get to, fortunately tehy are almsot brand new). But what I don't yet understand is which batteries do what. On all my previous boats, you had a selector...

Looking at other boats makes me appreciate the quality found in our Hatts. Check out this fuel manifolding system from a custom built cruiser I found on Yachtworld: Majorly scary. Those kinds of valves should never be on ANY boat, except maybe for a water/hose/washdown outlet.

I noticed that newer Hatts like the 53ED a few slips down from me have two sets of spray rails, one forward, one aft. Was this only on the EDs? or on all and simply added sometime after 1980? How effective are they at keeping spray from being thrown onto the bow and windshield? Saraswati has a...

I'm trying to figure out how many kilowatt hours a spaceheater uses per hour. Not sure I'm saying that quite right, but you get the drift. We get charged 20 centers per kilowatt hour for power, just trying to figure out the daily cost of running a 1,500 watt space heater. Is it as simple as...

Anyone know the brand of the 13x24" escape hatch/portlights at the stern of a 53MY? We need to buy new screens and we want to shop around for the best price.

Saraswati was resprayed with Awlgrip using one of their stock colros (I forget the name)...much whiter than the standard Hatteras white. Looks fantastic, shines almost as nice as fresh paint and it's coming up on 10 years old. I'm really impressed with the durability of Awlgrip. But...the hull...

We're trying to get an idea about whether our power is high or normal. We're paying $0.21 per kilowatt hour at the marina. Home is $0.14 including everything. It's kinda crazy, our power bill for the boat was over $300 last month. :(

I need to stock up, 32 volt in both 40 watt and 75 watt, standard base. Anyone have a suggestion on where to get them at a decent price?

Would there be any interest in a Chesapeake Bay Rendezvous? I'd defiitely be interested...

We've got a slight exhaust leak on one of the turbos. Just enough to cause a SMALL splattering of soot. I mean SMALL amount. But I wanted to get it fixed before it gets worse. My mechanic pulled it and said there is NO gasket, never was supposed to be one there (apparently he called Detroit and...

Both Admiral Amanda and I have always wanted to own/run a charter. We almost jumped into woning/running a charter cat down in the islands...but just before I was ready to give up on life in the Balti area...I got offered a good full time job and we bought our new home (the baot). But it still...
