Selling my spare now for $165, contiguous US shipping included. I'll have another one for sale soon, same deal.

After being gone from the boat for a week, got back to the boat this evening, and there was a loud tone coming from the master stateroom radio. I was able to isolate the tone by using the breakers. It's only coming from that radio. It sounds like a warning horn at the radio itself whether it is...

I have two complete un-used systems with custom switch boxes and 12v-24v converters as a bonus. Amazon sells them for $149. Both for $200 which includes shipping to the contiguous US. Or $100 each you pay shipping.

Just tried to get a quote from State Farm which has to be from a broker licensed in the state for which the boat lives primarily. SF cannot write policies for boats with over a combined horsepower of 1000hp in Maryland. Anybody in MD care to chime in?

There is a great article on Moon Howler’s (1987 41C) refit in the March edition. A special shout out to Scott Bickwid for his professional help in the refit is included. Sams is also mentioned for it's “anything Hatteras” pedigree.

Found this sign at a shop in Fort Lauderdale. They said they would sell it for around $5000. It’s in perfect shape.

The shaft coupler on my starboard motor has developed a serious leak. Based on the spray pattern it’s the coupler not the real seal. It’s about $4000 to replace the coupler with no guarantee it will stop the leak. This from a highly recommended mechanic. The splines on the output shaft of the...

Never Used, $100 includes shackle.

Looking for someone to repair a leak I have on the coupler between the prop shaft and the transmission on my starboard motor.

First, we use both dock water and our tank for supply and yes whenever we leave the boat we turn the dock water off even if for a walk. I’d like to add another quick disconnect at the bow for bow in docking. 1. Would it be bad form to use reinforced flexible hose to run to wherever I plan to...

Finally finished what turned out to be a long trip from Nashville to Longboat Key Florida. We had a fuel cooler that went bad and allowed water into one of our tanks. That issue was resolved and all of the water has been removed from that tank. This has been verified multiple times by sticking...

Does anybody know how far down the fuel pick ups go for the engines? Talking with the fuel polisher we came up with a theory. Obviously the engine fuel pickups go fairly deep so as to use as much fuel out of the tank as possible. I’m guessing the engine pickup is deeper than the generator pick...

A big thanks to you, Rusty, for the fuel tank sending unit socket! I figure I’d keep it in my toolbox for the day I go to the electronic sending unit that Scott’s talked me into. Little did I know I would need it for the current fuel contamination problem we’re having. I’ve probably used it a...

We have a ton of water in our FWD fuel tank. We put 200 gallons from one nozzle into that tank and 400 gallons from a different nozzle into the aft tank at fill up. Suppling and returning to the FWD tank for 12 hours with no issues. In the morning noticed maybe an inch of water in the bottom of...

Anybody have a recommendation?

My starboard transmission has a leak where the shaft coupler bolts to the transmission flange. It’s making an absolute mess slinging oil everywhere but it doesn’t seem to be draining much fluid from the transmission, dip stick reading while warm and in neutral. What is being lubricated inside...

As I watch the post Fort Lauderdale boat show boat parade going up the New River I’m reminded of a question I’ve always wanted to ask. Is the number printed on the roof of the larger yachts it’s documentation number? I’m assuming it’s there in the event the boat needs to be identified from the...

Just changed out the impeller on my 8KW generator which was working properly the last time I used it. I’m using the right impeller, correct part number and it matches up with the old one, it sits properly on the shaft and I verified with the cap off that it rotates. I get some water splashing...
