So I am the guy that made the contraption above to straighten out my bow rail. The only information I wanted to add it that the threaded rods and nuts were 1/2" grade 8 that I ordered from McMaster Carr, it takes quite a lot of force to bend this rail and I think if you did it with standard...

Hi Dave. I am doing fine. We still live in Hopewell Twp but moved about 4 miles from where we were near you. The boat floated off its blocks at Green Cove Marina but is OK. Some flooding inside and some cosmetic damage outside but all in all very lucky. How about you?

yes

My appologies again for not following up on my post, things have been crazy catching up from the storm. As far as my runners, I spoke to my canvas guy and he said he prefers to fit the runners right on the boat instead of working from templates. I have taken the opportunity of the restoring the...

Hey guys, I have not been on the blog for a long time now, as two years ago I purchased a project house on 4 acres of property and I have been a little short of time ever since. I still have my beloved 95 370 and continue to update it, did the canvas last season which came out great. The last 3...

This is my 370 in the slings of the crane that was blocked up about 100 feet from Ron. This picture pretty much sums up the nightmare that this storm has been for many of us up here. My boat has Mantoloking, NJ on the transom as my inlaws have a home there, if you want to see a real mess just...

Hi Rick, Here is the one I used: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0002KL41M/ref=redir_mdp_mobile Its a purlator 42S Jon

Just to close this out I replaced the fuel pump yesterday and the generator started and ran as it should. The Westerbeke pump which has a $175 list price is actually a Facet pump I found at Amazon for 40 bucks.

My 601XX which was worked fine for the last 10 years including last October when I winterized is DOA this Spring giving me a "EPROM TEST: BAD BACKGROUND" when I turn it on. I bought one unit on Ebay which was advertised as new old stock which did not work and has been returned. If anyone has...

I finally got back to messing with this. The boat is now in the water. I jumped out each of the auto shut down sensors including the over speed module with no change in the condition. The generator is hard to start, finally starts after some cranking, runs normally for a few moments and shuts...

Good point Frank but I don't think it is the case with the overspeed board? The oil pressure, water temp and exhaust temp switches all are in series and control voltage to the coil while the overspeed board grounds out the coil to stop the motor.

It was drawing water out of a bucket and was pumping it overboard normally. The engine block and exhaust risers were only warm to the touch when it quit so I doubt those sensors were tripped. The oil pressure switch could be a problem but the systems monitor is not alarming do I dont think i...

Typical boat stuff, last October when I winterized my genni was running fine. Yesterday I commissioned it while still on the hard and it is giving me problems. It initially started and then ran for about 90 seconds and then shut down. I restarted it a number of times and each time it would run...

Wow that is a picture of my old slip. I guess i picked a good year to move but knowing OBM they will have all of this fixed pretty quick John, is just K dock messed up? Were all the docks damaged or just K

Start with the simple, make sure all the plug wires are tight. Been there and done that.

I researched this one to death. Call Scott, you will not be disapointed.

Should be dual 30 amp cords

Sold mine on Ebay about three years ago, as I remember you got out bid! Ironically when I changed mine I found the orginal, which was about 12 years old at the time and about 600 hours in salt water to be in excellent shape. I thought I had wasted my money replacing it, but now that I see yours...

Mark you are the man. I have enjoyed watching this thread even though I have a Westerbeke. Reminds me of my favorite phrase from monitoring these boards over the years..."this boat was built by mortal men and can be repaired by the same" Good for you. Jon

Thanks for the info, after 15 years of use my orginals are getting a little rough..
