Close cousin :) What year? Our's is '89 We usually visit Solomons by boat sometime during the season.
Thanks. I have no reference for how many hulls Post built over the years to guess if they were sequence numbers by model or overall.
The last link confirms what I guessed for where the hull number was. Mine is 43078. I'd still like to know if the seq digits, 78, are just for...
Where in the HIN is the hull sequence number? Are hulls sequential or sequential by mode/size?
The 1000 Hr on my 500 HP CATS was $4500. I'm sure the engines in a 58 Viking are a good bit more. FYI the 43 Post cruises 24 kts at 70% load...
I wish I hadn't added it up but was curious since you raised the question. We have an older (1989) 43 Post but with newer (now 5 years old) CAT...
Main body looks more bronze, machined surfaces on end fitting more brass. It was already installed and never questioned it. Does say it is lead...
I changed the tank plumbing. Here is the simplified version. [ATTACH] I 'think', based on a copy of a 43 Post manual water system illustration,...
I would like a copy very much. Sending PM.
During my periodic search for a 43 Post Owners manual I came across links (working for present) for a Post 50 and 53 Owners manual. 50 Post...
Not NJ but a couple hours drive south in Annapolis. We have a 43, ours will be back in the water later this month. Like the 43 layout with 2...
My Viking had the belt driven pump with accumlator. I never considered the need for the accumulator since it was already there. It does allow...
Thanks for the suggestions. I prefer to leave the pump and accumulator in the engine room as they are better protected from water there than...
Thanks. Would like to see your changes. Possibly one of the great Post mysteries, along with why they wired the 12 VDC system black+/white- like...
It might if let run (dry) a long time but the lines are 1-1/4" pipe going back to the 'T' and 1-1/2' hose to the tanks so it is a lot of air...
Thanks. I thought it was original, but I don't understand why it was done that way. It works ok (until the check valve wears out which I had to...
Pump is a Jabsco Par-Max HD diaphram pump. The rest of the line going to the pump is flat. There is a check valve after the pump to prevent...
The twin fresh water tanks on our 43 Post have what I think is an unusual plumbing. As seen in the photo, the feed line comes from the bottom of...
Thanks. I've used it for other projects, there probabl is an expired tube of it in the garage LOL. I'm doing our salon this spring. Already did...
What adhesive did you use for the flooring?
