"The shafts look OK" Words many of us have regretted. I hope you do not regret those words. Shafts do not improve with age.
I'm confused, did you remove the struts just to do the bearings? Based on the way you are doing it in the picture why did you need to remove the...
Great input from all and much appreciated. Anyone out there have the Flexiteek covering a cockpit?
Looks like Flexiteek has a 2nd generation product out that has better heat rejection. Anyone have any issues with Flexiteek?
This has me rethinking SeaDek: [MEDIA]
It has come time for me to replace my cockpit deck. It is currently in Teak and beyond a simple refinish. I'm seriously considering the Sea Dek or...
I do many hours of slow speed (2.0 -2.5 knots) trolling with only one engine running. Even at slow speed, I get drag rotation on the non-running...
I had a Muir on my previous boat. If memory serves it was the Cheetah model. A horizontal unit with a rope/chain wheel. I was unable to ever get...
Looks like she’s starting to come together. I hope you have as good of luck with your Maxwell windlass as I have. I do a lot of deep water...
I'm glad you enjoyed it. I really appreciate all the great input and feedback I received. I hope I am giving back as much info as I am receiving....

Got my complete survey and valuation done. Boat was rated "above average" overall which is one step under Bristol as the highest. Not a single...
The marina I'm at got rebuilt a few years back and installed all new power pedestals. There are lots of older boats and commercial fishing boats....
If it is just the ignition switch how would that explain "oil pressure went to 40 psi without the engine running" ???
From photo it looks like you could have mounted it lower. Is there a reason you did not? Are you happy with the performance? Big difference?...
Glad to hear this all came together for you and the results are what you were looking for. Sleep well!!
Thanks. I'll look into the Lorex. I don't need or really want it to interface with my Simrads so that's not an issue.
Looking for some feedback and recommendations for monitoring cameras and possibly alarms. I did a search for this and found minimal info. I posted...
I used a good A/F on mine. Worked pretty well but I don't have the same warm water growth you have. I'm also curious to see what others are doing.
Too funny. Doesn't sound like anything to lose sleep over. If your not changing anything you should be fine. If anything you might gain a smidge...
