Not real clear where the play is. It looks like there are at least 4 interfaces which need checked to determine the feasibility of reducing the play. 1 - Wood to metal plates transition on the tiller. 2 - Metal plates on tiller to rudder stock head (square). 3 - Rudder stock head (square) to

Hello everyone, Just curious if anyone has experience tightening a loose tiller on a 30 mki or similar boat. My tiller steers the boat just fine, but there is some some noticeable play in it from side to side. Not sure if this is helpful, but there is a photo of my tiller where it meets

Greetings, I have been thinking about installing a Rule bilge pump as a companion to the existing original manual pump.  There is not much room and I am reluctant to start cutting holes in the cabin floor. The issue is where to route the hose.   Have any of you done this on a 24 or 25?  I am

Ryan, My hollow rudder stock was egg shaped from PO's tightening the tiller over the years. Two years ago on the hard I propped the rudder from below and removed the tiller. I used a BACC (big arse C clamp) and returned the stock to roundish. When I reinstalled the tiller, I through bolted it

Hi Brian, That amount of rusting is not bad. Follow through with your intentions and all will be fine. I suggest flat black paint is appropriate for a heat exchanger. Cheers, Russ Sweet 35 mk-1 Colony of Vancouver Island At 04:28 PM 21/01/2016, you wrote: While working to

While working to remove the rusty exhaust mixing tee I noticed significant rust on the oil cooler exterior. I decided to remove it for inspection. Here are some pics: http://i.imgur.com/JRncLOQ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/R9HJv2k.jpg http://i.imgur.com/mboAyhP.jpg http://i.imgur.com/LG1CBoV.jpg

The refrigerator is cooled by transferring the heat overboard to a coil. This one is showing signs of corrosion, but the zincs are near perfect. Did a previous owner neglect changing the zincs at one time? Do I need to replace this at this point? Interestingly one model of this heat exchanger is a

On my 25, I installed a bilge pump in the sump, and connected it to the old refrigirator line, which was long gone but the remainders of the manual pump and the line was still there, running to the transom. Ahmet On Thu, Jan 21, 2016 at 1:28 PM, Marek Dziedzic (hotmail) via CnC-List <

You could install a pump remotely, in a locker or cabinet and then run a hose into the bilge. It keeps the pump high and dry and might even be able to remove more water to a lower level. I installed two whale gusher pumps that way on my Viking. It worked well and very little water drained
