    Electrical gurus please

    I'm at Quarterdeck. We enjoyed many hours on your boat when Jerry A owned it. Scotty's Crew (if I recall correctly) was right across D dock from us.

    Electrical gurus please

    Check the current draw. If in expected range consider replacing the breaker. Might just be breaker fatigue.

    ZF 80 IV to Cat 3126 intermittent reverse on start up then fine

    Inspect and clean up connectors to solenoids then swap the fwd and rev connectors and see where that gets you (the wrong direction at best). Might help you isolate the problem point.

    The transmissions will be fine up to about 1000rpm. 725 to 750 should be your idle target.

    I'd go for 750rpm no-load idle. Will leave you about 700rpm with gear engaged.

    Anchor Rode

    Double braid might not be the best bet for this application. Three or eight strand would be preferable. If you intend to use the db it will need to fit through the chain link. If it will fit just use a standard eye splice, but it may hang on the gypsy.

    Lake Michigan 2017

    Keep an eye on the dates of the 2017 GLCC Rendezvous as space might be tight in Sturgeon Bay during that time. Not many places to overnight on the hook in the SB. Plenty of weeds this year. Suggest you pass into Green Bay and find your way north (17 mi) to Egg Harbor. It is an interesting...

    No/Slow shift on ZF transmissions - 2000 48' Sedan Bridge

    Monitor the fluid level, but if level holds and no shaft rotation in neutral I wouldn't be too concerned. Might learn something from the analysis that helps you understand the cause of the fluid loss. Hope you'll post any findings.

    No/Slow shift on ZF transmissions - 2000 48' Sedan Bridge
