ok. I think that I might have this figured out, but it requires new hydrauli lines because I can’t figure out if the Parker fittings will work with the 1500psi hose. I went to Parker and they said that they are a competitor to sea star and have no idea if it will work. Anyway, if I buy two...

Marine glass is still doing replacement. Just did by 265 vent window. Not cheap, but it is exact.

Keep calling. He did my 265 window over the winter.

maybe there was a supply chain issue on hoses 20 years ago that no one remembers :)

There is no good reason for the 1500. I have the hh5741 1.7 tilt helm that says 1000psi on it! She has a single ram, not pro, with a tie bar. I can only assume that when the 2005 motors were put on the 2003 ( it was in 2005 I’m told) hull they swapped out the hoses for some reason???? I...

Interested too. Just did my 265 (she was so neglected) and these points were challenging. I taped off with blue tape and did the best I could with the rotary and then by hand. For wax I did the best I could with the small da and then by hand.

Bringing up an old thread to keep everything organized for the next person in the future. I'm trying to get all of my materials for the AP install. Plan to put the pump through the cockpit tackle storage and the computer behind the salon drawers. Do you still like this set up 4 years later...

Never mind. It won’t work with just a wedge. You’ll lose a lot of coverage due to the beam hitting the hardtop and bow. Either way, glad I found this thread! I’m relocating the radar to the front of the hardtop with a 6” tower. Gotta figure out how to patch the 1” hole from the old cables...

reviving an old one here. Lots of good info! I am replacing an old furuno radar that is on a 6" scan strut mounted on the bubble. The scan strut doesn't match the pattern of the Fantom 24X so i need to make a change. My question is, why hasn't anyone mounted on top of the bubble? Even if...

Yes, I just did this yesterday. Installed two new switches and works like new. The above directions are correct and Digikey has like a million of the switches and rubber boots in stock.

So the Rivnuts appear to be aluminum and most of the screws appear to be SS. Will there be an issue with these metals? I haven’t seen aluminum screws. I have seen some type of steel rivnuts but it doesn’t say stainless of any grade.

For those of you that have redid your dashboard or switch panels, how did you attach the new material to the fiberglass? I was thinking of using the blind inserts so that i can remove them easily. Basically, just 5200 the insert into the fiberglass hole and then screw into it. The purpose of...

Wrong picture. It does appear to have a gasket. https://www.groco.net/products/marine-sanitation/waste-macerator-pump/155-6110-12

i Think that this is possible. That opening is pretty small though. There are a good amount of nuts to remove but according to the diagram it is removable. Not sure on the gasket. Doesn’t look like one on the picture but it seems like there should be one. I just didn’t want to deal with...

I replaced all the hoses in mine when I did the macerator project. It wasn’t the easiest but it was easier than the deck drain hoses. Do yourself a favor and make the access panel under the starboard side seat larger. it really allows you leverage to pull the hoses off the vents

I am putting the pump where you did based off of your thread on the subject. I’ll run the power to the on/off switch. Think I’m just going to replace that switch anyway. my current Furuno radar is in the electronics box. I plan to use the same mounting pedestal and hopefully hole in the...

I just ordered these switches and the rubber boots. Also ordered some new spreader lights off of Amazon. This is my next projecT. This site is so helpfu!! now that I think about it, should pick up some of these light bulbs too

That makes sense. Thank you! My terminal block currently has the 6AWG feed, the feed to the fuse panel, the feed to the overhead box, feed to the switch panel, and the Windlass which just goes to the breaker on the dash or maybe to the switch next to the breaker. Do you think that have the...

Why do you say to leave the inline on both the radar and AP? I thought that the whole point was to have everything centralized versus finding inline fuses everywhere. I'm extremely curious on this one.

I only lost one screw in this project. And...It was on the old common bus bar. I was moving the feed from the bottom to the top over to the new fuse panel. I was very careful after that but i definitely see what you are saying.
