Trash is a subject most boaters are familiar with. Years back cruise ship's were dumping their garbage in the Gulf of Mexico. Mexico was also...
Maybe AH was not making enough condensation to dissolve the tablets? Think I'll be adding some vinegar occasionally with the tablets. My AH's make...
I was taking shims out at the gear to lower the coupling. Used a pry bar to raise the engine at the mounts. The shims are just flat rectangular...
Thanks for that info. Were the pan tablets not dissolving?
My pans have two drains too. The only way I can clean the lines is to disconnect the Y connector from the single main hose and use a small wet...
Had the same setup on an 89' Viking 45 sf. You just have to remove or add shims to correct the alignment of the couplings, not as easy as...
We saw a Fleming 65 in Bradenton, Fl, a huge difference compared to the 55. Great boats but I Have to agree on the 55 er being too tight.
Have been using the ac pan tablets since last spring with no clogging issues, they appear to work. Put two in the pans every 6 to 8 weeks.

Took my grandson and some of his friends to dollar store, told them they could all get a toy that was made in America. Yep, there were none!
Home Depot has ac drain pan tablets that work well for algae slime.
Exactly why I prefer bronze thru hull components. No corrosion or electrolysis is tempting but plastic is not as durable as bronze. Maybe ok on...
I remember reading about a US valve mfgr sourcing their valves in China. They had major problems with corrosion, our last boat had them. I think...
Never considered how ineffective fire alarms and smoke detectors are when the fire begins outside the boat at the dock. Terrible tragedy.
A good solution to get rid of all the sweating metal valves, some hose clamps and the tedious job of insulating. I like the chiller system,...
Chiller Candy! Can't help but notice those shiny stainless valve handles. Nice work!
NW Florida, boatyard is in Orange Beach, Al.
The yards here fill up in the spring. Not a good time to haul and get work done. Not many MY's with stabilizers either.
Actually it is slow here in the mid winter, all we talked to there were busy at that time. We went to Stuart.
You will add some water when you bring loop pressure up to spec and likely will have to add some more after bleeding the system. If you air...
