What will be looked at during an out of water, in the slings insurance survey? I've got one coming up next week :mad: .

I keep my PFD’s stored in these large Ziploc’s:http://www.ziploc.com/?p=b8 One bag can hold 3 Type I’s. They stay clean and I can grab a bunch at a time if I need to. Nothing is stored on top of them and they are accessible in an emergency. Are there any CG Reg’s against using these for storage?

The PO painted over mine so I can’t get any data off it as to current draw, model numbers, nothing. And…It’s mounted on a removable deck board (fuel hose access) that can’t be removed now because the pump is there (what was he thinking?). None of the piping is secured, no fuse and the on/off...

Correct me if I’m wrong. It is improper to torque a greased bolt to full specs if those specs call for a dry install, right? Something about the lube causing the bolt to actually be over torqued? Ok, so how much less does one torque a greased bolt if it’s spec’d for a dry install? IOW’s...

I've searched everywhere, no one has it (not ever Saunders in Al Karl). Does anyone have a source for this stuff? It's still carried on Penray's website so I don't think it's been discontinued.

I have a set of Lee’s outriggers and don’t have any experience with them other than lowering them down and raising them back up when fishing. I need to pull mine off the boat for re-rigging and guy wire (whatever they’re called) adjustment and while there down do whatever else I need to do to...

Hey guys, The 12gal heater on my 45C gave it up and I'm looking for a replacement. The bottom rusted out after 35yrs of service dumping 180gals into the bilge. I was ashore celebrating Christmas when I got the call from a friend who heard a pump running while walking past her. That was the...

On Mon I'll be checking-in to get off the prescription narcs that I have been on for about a year now (back problems, surgery). Yea, I know this isn't Hatt related, except I won't be on my Hatt or enjoying this Forum for a few weeks.:mad: I can't bring my laptop so I won't be able to check-in...

There have been so many threads on here concerning which product to use on our wood that I'm really lost!!!:confused: There are so many different ways to go about "doing it" to our wood that I really don't know which way to go. I have on order from Sam's Imron 704C, which I've been told is a...

I know this should have been done at sea trial but I didn’t think of it. At 16kts while on Traveler’s (45C) maiden voyage home after purchase, I turned her hard over to port, made a big circle in the water and when back on my original heading, I put her hard over to stbd. I did this to test...

The Book of Genesis… The Book of Genesis… The Book of Karl… There’s some symbolism for ya’. ;) I gotta’ say thanks again man. I have learned SO MUCH from you. I'm indebted to you and there will ALWAYS be some Heineken’s for you aboard my boat. If you ever need a hand with anything, just...

Originally by "Genesis", found by Traveller45C Here ya' go::) Assuming it is a COMPLETE rebuild, $3k/hole is about right for budget purposes. BTW, complete means, to me anyway: NEW marine heads. NOT RECONDITIONED. Premium injectors in said heads. NOT your old ones. New kits, of course...

I need one of these. Bronze or bronze looking, 4 3/8" with the push button at the top.

I'm looking to add these to the salon of my '72, 45C and was told my Sam's that they are no longer available :(. If you've got any of these and want to sell, please let me know. I need 1 double fixture and 3 singles.

Check your PM's please.:) Greg

Could you guys straighten me out on these terms and how they apply: 1. Gross Tonnage 2. Net Tonnage 3. Displacement :)

Anyone know what these rails are for? Walking through my marina I noticed that only the Hatts have them.

I’m gonna’ re-mount my rod holders and I want to run the procedure past you guys. I’m gonna’ re-bed with 3M 4000UV. After I apply the 4000, I’ll snug down the rod holders, but not all the way, allowing a gasket to form and then fully tighten afterwards. This is the correct procedure, no...

Have any of you guys used this stuff? It has been recommended to me by Sam's as the stain that was originally used on my boat at the factory. Any suggestions on it's use?

I found a spare shaft on my boat yesterday and need to know the correct way to store it. I found it wrapped in newspaper and duct tape. I am planning on coating it with wheel bearing grease and wrapping it with plastic wrap and some other soft cover that I haven’t figured out yet. Will this...
