Long story short... I survey two 30MKII during my trek to find my boat.
The first had a very stiff steering issue, the brokers yard fixed it before
I had it surveyed. The would not tell me what was wrong or what they did
to fix it. In the end, the boat surveyed poorly and
CNG rises, propane sinks making propane much more hazardous if boat is properly
ventilated. See masquerade (movie with Rob Lowe).Jerry

Joel, don't know where you got the notion that Navtec rod rigging must
be re-headed every 10 years or 10,000 miles.below is info taken from
a Navtec site..
*As a general rule, Navtec uses a figure of 40,000 sailing miles as a
time when a thorough inspection should be done. This would
Rob,
This sounds like exactly my issue, thanks for the reply. Did you loosen the
steering cable before you removed the collar, or did the shaft stay in place
under tension?
Thanks,

I’ll second Dennis’ recommendation! Have the Makita 18v, and it is a work
horse, both at home and on the boat.

I can understand why you would think you want a 12v drill. You think it
will be cheaper, lighter, and smaller. That being said, I love my 18v

boat but it has never let me down.

Another factor that probably improved the steering was the possibility that the
bearing collar that is mounted to the deck was misaligned when it was stiff and
corrected when you reassembled it. I experienced this problem on my LF 38 many

Does anyone have any recommendations?

I would change course, and go for an 18 volt, 1/2 inch Ryobi with one of
the new lightweight lithium Ion batteries. They are variable speed, and
those new batteries run a LONG time on a charge, and then charge back up
in an hour. Plug the 110 volt charger into an inverter when onboard, or

I don't know about your specific boat, but at least some of the older models
used common sink drains.
You might try looking in the plumbing section of your local hardware
supplier.
My boat has bronze drains, but there is no screen.

John,
Take this for what it's worth. I use a cordless drill a lot when working
on boats and around the house. After my buddies and I soured on Dewalt
cordless drills due to short battery lives, I looked hard. I'm a big fan
of Dewalt and Bosch corded tools but found their reviews a bit low.
My
I use a few cordless drills. Wore out a couple of old Makita 9v units and now
have a Porter Cable 18v. With a charger and two batteries. It is not lithium
ion so is rather heavy. For light duty, I have a BD 9.9v unit which is handy
and light but you have to plug the charging cord into the drill
This is newer than a 79, It also has the nav station w/ no starboard
Quarter berth. I am going to guess it is closer to an 82 or 83 vintage. I
agree with the other comments on the stainless holding tank. and that

This list is incredible! I have been researching how to deal with squeaky,
groaning steering on my '89 30 MKII. I am almost certain I have the exact issue
that you addressed.

1. Can I remove the emergency tiller collar while the boat is in the water? (I
suspect that I

I have the 18V version, was on sale at the time. Great drill. One thing I like
is the ability to slow start into aluminum or SS
If you are dead set on a 12v then consider the Majors 12v. This is the
little brother to the 18v we've all been advocating.

I'm no expert on the LF38 but I'm an expert window shopper on yachtworld ;)
I doubt there's been one listed in the past three years I haven't ogled.
I've seen listings with every configuration that Fred mentions and I've
definitely seen the laminate doors on newer boats. I think it must have
been
Doug — all the newer than 1980/81 LF38s I’ve seen have used teak ply doors in
the galley, rather than the laminate-covered ones I’ve got on my 1979; and many
have the wrap-around galley, with the peninsula forward of the range, as well
as a separate shower stall in place of the drawer stack
Fred, maybe I am wrong but the drawers in the engine room access door make
me think it is newer. But then having hull #4 every LF38 is newer.

Thanks everyone for the responses re the 12 volt Cordless drill. I do have a
18 volt Black and Decker that has served me well over the past 10 years but
don't leave it on board after commissioning each spring. I do have an old
manual drill on board and I will probably stick with that to save space
I have a 1983 LF38 and my cabinet doors in the galley are some some type of
cream colored laminate over plywood--not teak. The galley arrangement as well
as the shower arrangement were options in 1983. The separate shower (which I
don't have) I understand was a popular and valued option. I
I got my ryobi L-ion set on sale for I think $60CND two batteries,

every now and then for a charge. At home I use a Bosch set that's proven to
be very reliable, lots of use over four years including lots of masonry

I +1 on the Ryobi 18 V (but it has to be Li-ion). They may not be the
“professional grade”, but I don’t use it for work. They last much longer than
the cordless of the past (unless you murder the battery; they don’t die by
themselves, like our boat batteries) and they do keep charge for months,
A quick search for a documented “True Love” only shows one LF38 which is a

Speaking for myself I bought the ryobi because I saw the deal and I'm on a
wet mooring. Rowing my tools out kinda sucks to be honest so I keep a set
on board. Also, time is money right? Inevitably I forget to bring
something. If it's all on board I'm good.
