    Electrical problem at key switches?

    On my 94 Sailfish, I've got three batteries (one house, one for each of the two engines). Each of the engines will start and trim as long as its switch is pointed to "1" or "both." However, if I turn either engine switch to "2" -- although the gauge lights display and the initial three beeps...

    A way to run the Norcold TekII frige on AC power?

    Any suggestions how to run my frige on shore power? There is an AC outlet near it on my 94 Sailfish. Maybe I can tap into it with a converter of some type.

    Oil tank access and/or livewell removal

    RPM Limiter / Overheat signal

    On the water recently, my port engine's rpm limiter kicked in (in other words, it ran hot). However, the gauge did not signal an overheat nor did it give the beep warning. Where should I begin to track this down? Is there a way to manually send a signal to the gauge just to check the arrow and...

    Canvas/Enclosure zippers stuck

    Just bought this 94 Sailfish and the enclosures have been in storage long enough for the zippers to be stuck. I've tried various lubricants but can't get them unstuck. Any ideas? What about where to get replacement covers if I decide to go that route?
