I did that on my 39, and I removed those annoying straps. I put A Rod going from the top center of the mask collar, with a flathead on the top end of the rod, sealed in butyl. On the bottom I had a turnbuckle, and I drilled and tapped into a keel bolt and put 3/8 in threads into the keelbolt for
Yes.You can ask, that is_However, don't do it! I did that in a 1973 Perkins, and It continued to run. However after I did it, I read a lot of stories and articles that said not to use synthetic oil in older engines. The engines were not designed for it. I have also heard stories of them starting

Haha, that's funny. ! That may have been one of the most graceful designs they made. I always heard that, but being on it, was never able to see it. I believe that boat was owned for many years by Randy Stephens up in Nova Scotia. I think it just sold last year. He put a much more contemporary
I think Shields makes the hose specific to holding tank hoses, to mitigate the smell.I don't think when these boats were built there were hoses made specifically for holding tanks. you have to be careful with some of the fittings that are made for these thanks, because some of them are actually 1

There is an RFC 35r rate compass installed. I'm assuming it would be a fluxgate, probably 2002 vintage. Good call. This has me thinking. I just brought it up on the screen and I can actually calibrate it . I couldn't figure out how in the world I would do that, because they are so old and
I am having difficulty correcting the rotation of a little boat icon on the screen to the direction I am going. I am currently traveling at 238 degrees, and the boat is pointing around 360. Does this require a compass calibration, or is it some simple setting? This is also screwing up my true wind
I recall coming across those same problems too. A couple of things. pool stores have some really neat stuff in them if you just go in them and browse around. The fittings, they are more like 1 and 1/2 in then 1& 5/8. Also, I always use a heat gun. Really makes them easy to get on and off. also,

First of all, at the risk of sounding like a 'do as I say don't do as I do' kind of guy. I'm just thinking, well, if this is one of those transducers that can actually show you the image of a ship on the bottom, it might lose some of that fine detail going through a fiberglass hull. Why don't you

Has anyone converted their alternator to a serpentine belt on a Yanmar? I am wondering if there are sources other than the Balmar conversion kit for the pulleys that are exclusive to the engine, like the water pump and the crankshaft.Bill ColemanC 39___
Mine is a 73 also, and dollars to donuts, they are square steel plates. Rusted to shit. Mine were 3/8 of an inch thick probably 4 by 4. I replace them with stainless steel ones, the same size. I like the heavy plate dispersing the load over a larger area. Probably what you should look into is
I'm guessing it's probably for a lightning rod. mine's got a whopping wire going up in it, and a great big copper pointy stick. Maybe the thinking is that it would carry the juice down The wire and into the keel & out, rather than frying all of the instruments and everything else. But I don't

It seems that TMC (in Taiwan) is the manufacturer. After a long search of

This probably sounds stupid, but I use a 20" home window fan (120 VAC) on

the screen on the inside. Runs quiet and all night with minimum strain on

This might sound to easy, but could you have wrapped something around the
prop shaft?
I had a similar sounding experience when a piece of heavy line wrapped
around the shaft. Had to clear it with a dive knife (took about 2 hours,
working with a flashlight) then restarted the engine
