I just finished reading an article online about the original 74' Hatteras trawler yacht built in the early 70's. Predecessor of thr LRC's. Spectacular!!! Go to WWW.classicyachtmag.com/currentissue.
It would seem that Hatteras should look into the past to find the future.

I just read where MTU has a new website for 2-cycle diesel support. I guess some wonder boy exec figured out that there are a couple of old DD 2-strokes left in the world. All it took was for the world economy to tank for them to figure out that everyone wasn't going to run out and buy a new...
If anyone is searching for the old style Hatt gauges ( blue face ) there are 2 complete sets on e-bay. They were listed by Boat Recyclers of Wilmington along with steering parts off of a 1969 31' Hatt. I don't know what else they may have off this boat but the tel # is 910-793-8890. No...

I have to replace the salon headliner in my 1966 41'tc. The original headliner was removed by the previous owner and replaced with vinyl siding soffett material. I have fortunate enough to get a complete headliner made for Hatteras from another member of the forum but I can't see how it would be...
I have a Mechanical (cable driven) VDO speedometer that I removed from my 1966 41'tc that I will give to anyone that has a use for it. It isn't frozen and seems to work. If anyone is restoring an antique and can use it let me know.

The oil cooler to the trans in my 41tc leaked and as a result I have water contamination in the Allison Trans. I replaced the cooler and flushed the gear several times with fresh oil but can't seem to get all the water out.
The Detroit manual says to flush a contaminated engine with a 50%...
A while back there was a posting that contained an internet site for Racor elements at a good price. Of course I misplaced the info and I can't find the post in the archives. If anyone can help It would be greatly appreciated.
