I know this is an old string, but I wanted to update it. I ran into a guy last week who invented the solution! Check out Quickchocks.com. Heads-up...Your browser will try to correct it to quickchecks.
Cleaning my faucet screen is a Spring commissioning task. The stuff comes from the hot water heater. I strongly suspect some "stuff" has found it's way into the guts of faucet workings.
Does anyone know if there is a zinc anode in the hot water heater? If so, has anyone replaced it?
I replaced my galley fridge with the Vitrifrigo. Super quiet, unlike the Norcold. Get's very cold too. We LOVE it. Duel power (12/24Vdc - 100-240Vac 50/60Hz). I never thought I'd buy anything Italian for the boat, but this unit is quiet and the freezer compartment is larger. Double...
I use "divers dream" size. I've always used zinc (Chesapeake Bay), but more envrio friendly folks are starting to use Aluminum, especially in more fresh water. But do your research. However, either are less noble than anything on your running gear.
Someone else told me that too, but when I pulled the microwave I did not see a vent inlet located even near that space. Maybe my boat was setup differently.

I've had to replace my Microwave as well. A couple things to note: 1) It's plugged in, so the plug may have come loose. 2) When you use the convection mode it gets HOT. to better vent the heat, I had to jigsaw an additional 5x8 vent hole in the top. Used a small, but sturdy, black A/C...
Bill,
Thanks for chiming in. Misery loves company. We chatted in the past too. I have lots of family in Beaufort and was looking at a houses near you at one time.
I still have the old sea water pumps, so that can't be it. I'll let the forum know what and if I hear back. I appreciate...
I have read through most of these posts and I have a couple of things to add and ask.
- I just fixed my screen door. What a PIA, but I removed the interior carpet threshold instead of the glass doors. It was tough to find the first screw, but finding the others was relatively easy. I...
