My 1992 GW Seafarer has a Richie HF-73 Compass that lost all it's fluid. I'm repairing it with new fluid but the light stopped working. I have looked all over for a replacement, but can't find one. Does anyone know where I could get one or a similar one to use?

Lewmar instructions said 8 gauge for boats under 26 feet

The hatch door is reinforced with 3x5 inch straps. The Windlass is mounted on a 6x18x1/2 inch sheet of heavy duty plexiglass and that is mounted to the bow of the boat and the anchor hatch.

I tried that but it the flap still sticks out. I ended up grinding down the brass that was sticking out just a bit. The flap still sticks out a tiny bit, but If I'm not mistaken, don't the all stick out a bit? Or should they lay completely flat?

I bought 4 new scuppers from Amazon and they fit perfect. My only problem is that on of the flaps won't close because the inner brass tube protrudes out to much. I saw a link how to replace the tubes so I think I will try this out. Thanks for all the information.

I was hoping someone could guide me to purchasing new thru holes for my transom that have a flap to keep water from coming in

Yes there two large straps next to each hinge

I do need to add a cleat to tie it off. I’m not sure what you mean about cleaning it off.

Not likely, I just push the down button and the anchor goes down. I do have to release the anchor stop first.

I'll probably get a new anchor, that's the original one that came with the boat

I want to thank those who shared their wisdom on my subject of installing a windlass to my 1992 Seafarer 22.. I just finished installing my windlass and it is working great. I didn't go with a pulpit, but only a bow roller. I reinforced the anchor locker hatch with a half inch plexy glass and a...

I should mention that I am not adding a pulpit.

I have been looking at bow rollers for my 1992 Seafarer 22 and was hoping someone out there may have installed one so they could give me an idea on what to get. I attached a photo of the bow with a tape measure showing how much room I have to work with. Thanks for any help...

I think you forgot the link to the video...

I like this! thanks for the information.
