Hello, My dockmate needs to replace fridge. Same boat as you. Can you pls send pics and part numbers to purchase? Would be most appreciated!

also I did replace both impellers 2 weeks ago, so that is not the issue

i am trying to find the right thermostat to buy and replace. Do you know part number by any chance?

My port engine temp runs at 160degrees but my starboard only runs at 140degrees. Is this normal?

I have the rubber extrusion windshield. I had some canvas side windows made so when I wash the top boat canvas I can put up. I call them wash curtains. I want to add a snap or two to the bottom of wash canvas Windows. But it has the rubber extrusion. Are there snaps that you insert into the...

I am not clear on the function of the forward bilge pump. How would water enter that pump area? What would be the source of the water?

Can someone share how to find missing vanes in the line? Where do they typically end up? Or can the broken parts find there way out by themselves? Is there a filter screen at the trans-cooler so broken vane parts cannot enter?

nothing unusual, belts are fine. Oil, Temp and Battery gauges were normal. I am thinking alternator shorted out and blew and that was the burnt smell.

I need to replace my alternator. Mine is a part-number 862031, marine sae made in Korea. I see Walmart has them for $83. But I had one replaced a few years back on my other engine and the mechanic installed a Sierra for $275. I am confused on the pricing....is one better than the other?

Was out and running around 2500rpm, starboard engine just shut off, smelled something burnt. Drove in on 1 engine. Now engine cranks but won't fire. Batteries seem fine. Any idea's? someone told me could of been the alternator burning out and blowing the 90a fuse on the starter. Just not sure...

Excellent. Thank you for your expertise and responsiveness! Truly grateful in these crazy times. I guess I will try this method next spring since I suffered thru the straw drain latest week

Dennis, Sorry for being dense....but to clarify...are you saying I can attach a 3/8" ID hose direct to the "top of dipstick tube" vs inserting my tiny straw all the way down the tube? And it will suck the all the oil out? I guess I don't understand how the "tube" meets the oil pan, does the...

my dipstick tube has no threads

Dennis. What model ‘water witch’ do you recommend. And I assume it interfaces to the existing bilge bump?

Yes. It is a ‘sure bail’

the bilge pump floats are 'blue and rectangular'. what is the right replacement model?

I have been using this for several years and get frustrated each time. It is soo slow. I use full synthetics so it is thicker oil. I always make sure the oil is warm by running the engines for a few moments. It takes 45 - 55min per engine and I never get 7qrts out, usually about 6. I have...

thanks Dennis. Any tips on how best to reach those pumps, they are in a difficult place down in the bilge

Morning, Can someone pls confirm how the bilge pumps operate? In the engine bilge, between the batteries are 2 bilge pumps, both with separate floats (colred blue). 1) the 1st pump is the lowest one closest to stern. Seems to ONLY operate when you turn on the bilge pump switch at the helm...
