Cruising last weekend, engine alarm came on, all gauges were fine, shut it down, restarted, and continued, running at 3200 rpm, occasional surges in rpm, on starboard engine. Finally I shut it down, and got home on single engine. Once docked, shift on that engine was locked too. My mechanic...
I have a winter condo in Naples now, on Gulfshore Blvd. Anyone in the area have info on slip availability? Thinking of shipping my boat down, rather than store on land up in Newport.
Last year we soda blasted the bottom of my boat, came out looking new. Applied MicronCSC by Interlux. It looks pretty good, am thinking of just touching it up. Our season is May-October.
So, after Easter Brunch, headed to the boat to get a start on spring chores. My guy is going to remove the shrinkwrap and recycle it on Wed, so I thought I would put up my canvas, which I had removed to clean and restitch. Surprise #1, my middle windshield glass just above the vent, is...
The search light on my bow got dinged last year, and won't rotate now. I took it apart and the gears are chewed up, missing some "teeth". Anyone know where I could get replacement parts for it?
Anyone in the area near Bethpage on Long Island? I am thinking of heading there by boat for a couple of days, to see the US Open golf tournament. Suggestions? Look like Oyster Bay, NY would be a possibility.

Under the steps in my cabin is some kind of pump that keeps cycling on and off, it is contained in a plastic box, with 3 hoses going into the box, labled shower sump, ac something, and discharge. Everything is turned off at the panel, but thet pump cycles on and off every couple of minutes...
My 2 throttles don't match up when I accelerate. If I run using engine sync gauge and rpms, the port thottle is up more than the starboard. Full throttle on port gives me about 3100rpm, to match that on starboard, is only about half throttle. Is there some simple adjustment if I take the cover...
