I’m not positive about anything and didn’t indicate any positivity. I was simply pointing out that since the raw water side doesn’t contact much...
Don’t believe it is electrolysis. There is clearly corrosion and rust. We’ll see here in a few days when I get it apart. I also don’t see how it...
What a bummer! My Tech was just complaining the other day about not being able to reach GOST either. Seems like they pretty much shut down...
Thanks guys. No, clearly the rust has been happening over time, but it is odd that only one side. And it wasn't leaking sitting there. It's...
I installed 2 new Lasdrop shaft seals when we repowered last year. They have less than 50 hrs run time on them. Worked fine for the short season...
You are likely better to use a transport ship. There is a ship that makes a route from East Coast through Panama Canal up the west coast to...
If they are not the screw type they usually just pull off. They have a little spring clip holding them in place and should slide off the shaft...
I have a few hard to reach valves on my boat. Mainly the emergency fuel shut off valves but same principle. We just use some 3/8" stainless round...
Glad it was a simple fix. As to the why it got out of alignment, there are a number of things that can cause this: Motor mounts wearing or...
Sounds like a good call on replacing them all. I don't know about the 7 year life expectancy, that seems like a pretty short life span....
If it is just the oil line fitting why can’t you just have it fixed as CAPT Ralph mentioned? Those fittings are just welded or brazed on to the...
Anyone else out there with a Marquipt? Anyone have a Marquipt manual?
So we are trying to verify hydraulic fluid level and we cannot find a dipstick or sight level anywhere on this thing. Actually, we can’t even find...
You may also explore if you need an AMOT valve. I assume the boat is in Vancouver based on your location? Many of these systems are designed to...
x2 for Mr Cool. When I needed new gear oil coolers they came through for me. You may not get a 100% direct replacement but they can usually find...
There are plenty of larger boats that will check all your boxes. The biggest issue will be your budget. You may be able to buy a much older,...
39’-55’ is a pretty big range. Boats on the larger end may be difficult to find that have the fuel mileage at cruise you are looking for. Also, to...
Looks like I may have gotten lucky. We put some weight on the end of the cable and ran the davit up and down. It seemed to operate better with...
Another item to consider is cost of parts. I have a few friends with Volvos (likely not the same specific engines you are looking at). They are...
Thanks for the info. I knew the boat was originally delivered as the Century Star and was Tiger Shark II when I bought it. I vaguely recall...
