What part of FL? I know of one 55c in pensacola, been on the hill for a WHILE.

Was cutting a hole out in my port cabin engine room bulkhead today to add a hatch to better access the outboard side of the port engine. Got the hole cut but there is an approx 3" copper strip spanning the hole. Not sure if this is for bonding or something to do with the old single side band...

Replacing my Hynautic k31 steering cylinder with a new seastar unit. The bushings that attach the cylinder to the tiller arm have seen better days and I want to replace them while I've got everything apart. They appear to be copper or brass/bronze maybe? Anyone have a source for these...

Hello all, long time no post! I've got a Hynautic h-42 helm pump on my 1986 52c. My steering cylinder has started leaking (again). I've already had it rebuilt a couple times in the past but thinking I'm leaning toward replacement this time. The cylinder does not have any marking or part...

So during downtime while engine is being overhauled I wanted to tackle a few small projects that have bothered me for a while. One of them was the footrest on my Pompanette p2000 helm chairs. The plastic (yes plastic) they are made of had become brittle and started to fall apart. The plain...

I posted this on BoatDiesel as well, if you are a member there that thread may be of interest. So the wife and I are offshore 40miles Saturday enjoying glass like conditions on the gulf. Beautiful weather, zero waves, so what if the fishing was slow.... We had been on the bridge for some...

Took a few buddies fishing this weekend. Couple of these guys really helped me out along the way with my fiberglass project. They wouldn't accept cash, only wanted to go fishing a few times. Made bait in Pensacola pass Sat morn then headed 40ish miles out for some bottom fishing action...

Ya'll think my corner baitwells are deep enough? :cool:

With all the projects and work coming to a close got to spend some quality time with the wife this weekend on the boat!! Some much needed R&R!! Partial photo credit to Bob's Dingy!!

Hey guys, sorry I have been mia for a while, business got REALLY busy and pulled me away from the boat for a few months. Probably best b/c I could definitely feel a little burnout coming on. Long story short, we went down to do a seatrial (first real one since being back on the water) about a...

These Perko 2 1/2" sea strainers 858e were removed from the boat when we re-plumbed the raw water intakes. They are 2.5" Sea Strainers. Everything is in great shape. These are only 4ish years old and saw minimal use. Like new functionality wise with only a slight patina on them. They were...

Hey guys, we are picking up a vibration and the first suspect on the list is the cutlass bearing. A guy at the yard recommended a Strut Pro Cutlass bearing puller. This puller allows you to pull the bearings without pulling the shafts (which is very attractive). But after looking at this...

Just sitting here thinking about the last 10 days or so and WOW. I'm not one to brag but it's been a doozie! I don't normally talk about personal stuff online but I gotta share this string of bad luck with everybody, it's almost mind boggling. Before anybody asks, I'm ok, family is ok...

Replacing all rod holders with screwless. Some of these are only a year or so old. All appear to be in good functional condition but all have normal wear/tear you would see after being fished for a couple of seasons. They are dirty and still have adhesive(3m 4200) stuck to them. Should clean...

We are beginning the install of a pile of underwater lights and 1 camera in the next week or so. One of my buddies made the comment that I should put a camera pointed at each prop. While that sounds like a great idea, to be able to check out the props for debris, lines...etc sounds like a...

Looking for a used 2.5" or 2" raw water sea strainer and scoop. We are heading for haulout Wed morning and one of my jobs is to pop a big hole in the hull and add a larger intake for raw water intake (AC, washdown, watermaker...etc). I've got a 2.5" seacock so I'm kinda leaning toward that...

One of the big projects for this weekend was clean, prep and paint the engines. I tried to document the process as good as I could but we were quite rushed, so here is what I have. REALLY wish I had taken more before pics, the transformation was stunning lol. Prep. Air seps were removed...

I've been working/playing/developing this digital sensor system off/on (mostly off lol) for about 6 years now. This is on our 52c with 8v92TI's. I've got all digital temp sensors installed, egt, coolant temp, oil temp, trans temp...etc. I'm now to pressure sensors. I'm adding oil pressure...

Seriously, I don't know how you guys deal with this!!! I was trying to grill last night and burnt the sausage b/c it was too damn cold to stand out by the grill!!
