    At the end of last season, I blew out the water lines. Now my kitchen sink faucet has very low pressure but the sprayer has its usual good pressure. All the other faucets on the boat have great water pressure. This ever happen to anyone else?

    Fresh water fill solenoid replacement part

    Does anyone know the part number for the Asco Red Hat II solenoid that's used for the fresh water fill? I took a picture of it but it came out too blurry to read the part numbers. The solenoid stopped working on me so I had it replaced w/ a ball valve thinking it wouldn't be that big of a...

    Sunpad Gas Struts

    Has anyone replaced the gas struts that are supposed to hold the sunpad up? They appear to be part number ML33-80# from Ameritool. Does that mean they are part ML33 with an 80 pound capacity? I think I found them here but I want to double check to see if anyone else has done this...

    Fisher winter covers

    Thinking about having a Fisher cover made and I?m curious about people?s experience with them. Specifically: 1) how many years do have you had it and how is it holding up? 2) how does the imron hold up? Any scratching, scuffing, etc.?

    Westerbeke 11D - How much oil?

    Stupid me figured this out last year, but didn?t write it down. How much oil does the generator take for an oil change (with filter)? The manual says 4.3 US Gallons or 4.0 liters. Obviously one of those is wrong. (2011 45? Yacht)

    Engine solenoids won?t shut off

    Anyone ever have a situation where their engine solenoids wouldn?t shut off? My parallel solenoid won?t energize or deenergize either. As I watch the colt meter when I start the engines it seems like the parallel is on, but the light on the switch isn?t. 2011 45 Yacht

    Salon fridge (Nova Kool) stopped working

    We were away for about a week and spent some time on a mooring and some time at a dock. About half the time the fridge was on 12v and the other half was on 120v. Everything worked great. Left the boat for a couple of days and went back today and the fridge wasn?t cooling in either 12v or 120v...

    Charge Air Cooler Anode on D6-435

    For the life of me I can?t find where the anodes are on the Charge Air Cooler of a Volvo D6-435 engine. Does anyone have a picture of where they are? (The picture in the manual doesn?t show it on an assembled engine) I have a 2011 45? Yacht, but the location should be the same on any D6...

    What zincs are you guys using for your hull and swim platform? Looking at the measurements of my zincs and comparing it to zincs on boatzincs.com, I think the hull zincs are the ZC-406 model (https://www.boatzincs.com/zc-406.html) and the swim platform lift arms are the 2-13/16 R-2 rudder zincs...

    Clearcoat chipping and flaking

    I?ve got a couple of spots that the clearcoat is chipping and flaking off. Seems to be mostly on the red accent stripes. Anyone have any suggestions on how to deal with it? Should I wet sand the spots then touch it up with more clearcoat?
