    2001 Grady White 282 Sailfish - Macerator, Tank level monitor & Toilet pump assembly Install

    “ What do you use to clean old wires?” Can’t really clean wires, but you can clean the connectors on the ends. Use a small brass toothbrush sized brush, a soft wire wheel, or a chemical cleaner like jewelry cleaner. Even better, if there is corrosion showing in the wiring, is to cut the ends...

    2001 Grady White 282 Sailfish - Macerator, Tank level monitor & Toilet pump assembly Install

    You got the job done, so that's what counts. What did you miss? GLOVES AND A BUCKET! As soon as I saw the corroded connectors on the old wiring harness, they were suspect. Did you check the power to the old switch with the switch removed, checking wiring only? When you got the dim light on the...

    306 canyon - do engines touch water when raised?

    Almost swamped my tournament 22 in the slip doing this exact same thing. Didn’t notice that my deck had become ever so slightly tilted toward the bow, and when it started raining hard that afternoon, it just got worse by the minute, because there were no deck drains forward of mid-ship. Luckily...

    Canvas cost for a 33 Express

    On the Makralon side panels, I am curious what you used for track on the bottom of the panels? I assume that the top has the awning track/Keder rail in a pretty straight line, but I can’t see how you would slide the top and bottom at the same time. Maybe a zipper in the bottom track that then...

    Hit dock a little hard

    Hard to imagine jumping off the boat in that picture, approaching the dock at a 45* angle. Would mean jumping off the bow. Maybe it's my age, but having had 2 people slip and fall in many years of boating, nobody gets on or off without being able to have one hand on the boat, and one foot on the...

    2022 Canyon 271 Seacock location question

    So, you have a raw water/salt water head. You will be much happier if you can find a way to connect the water input to a non-pressurized freshwater source. It is the saltwater microorganisms that die in your holding tank that create bad smells, more so than what humans put in, especially if it...

    I’m sure he’s happy to sell you those fittings for $225. Takes less than 30 seconds on Google to find all the “Marine Town Recessed Fixing Bush” that you want for $38-$50.

    2022 Canyon 271 Seacock location question

    You have a bracket for 2 pull shafts, how many through hulls/ seacocks do you have there? The one you show is in the water inlet bracket, nothing in the discharge bracket. Do you know if you have a fresh water, or raw water/salt water flush head? If fresh, you only need one discharge through...

    228 rear bilge pump location

    My biggest concern with the whole bilge pump set up was that a one inch hole in the bottom of the hull would flood 10 times faster than the water would drain through that small conduit into the rear bilge. And the forward bilge certainly couldn't keep up.

    228 rear bilge pump location

    Use the "hockey stick" method when you install the pump, and you won't be hanging upside down when you need to service it.

    What kind of hours do you rack-up?

    I wish I had a clock which recorded the time I spend on my boat in the driveway, and in my slip.
