Overzincing doesn’t apply to cold molded. You need anything having saltwater through it bonded, to a zinc.
I think that in a season the other sides would start delaminating and the fins would have to be replaced sooner as both sides would be...
If you're talking a fairly late model Hatteras, I've always had the Trac fins drain a lot of water out of them. They all do that from day 1, even...
I'm not sure why seaweed would be a problem in the carribbean for traditional fins, both gyro's and traditional fins are cooled with sea water....
You have a serious electrolysis issue going on. How are your zincs? If they're good check your shorepower connections, and then start checking...
They put an unvented unit because there was no way to run the vent unless you went through the engine room bulkhead. Then a freezer on top of the...
My owners went with a freezer instead of 2 units in the crew stateroom in the 66' Manhattan. We have the dreaded all in one, unvented unit, which...

I've had just about any anchor work fine in most conditions, provided it is appropriately sized and has plenty of chain and scope out. Fortress...
The stackable apartment sized household units work good. The 1 machine washer/dryer never does.....the vented ones are a little better but still...
The older 61's were pretty good running boats, but I believe newer hull designs would be better. I ran a 2006 61' with C32 1650hp with mezzanine...
I use Teflon tape, I find it's worn through in plenty of area and makes a good bond. It doesn't leak, you don't have to he-man tighten it so that...
Most all of the all in ones I've seen are unvented. The entire reason to use that size is to save space, and most don't want to waste the space...

I had that situation with a dometic copper A/C discharge tree connected to the a/c pump with a red brass nipple. Did not last a year. The way I...
That's a KUZ sender......you need the mounting pattern 5 screw or threaded flange AND you need to know the OHMS for the gauge...….they are made in...
No anchoring is just a preference. I wouldn't put that much chain......maybe 60' of chain and a good 300'+ of rope...…..The Hatteras are much...
