She didn't need any structural work (thankfully!) so no work on stringers or bulkheads. I used Teak and Holly plywood for the flooring. Lots of careful templating and a good spiral router bit to cut the angles. I made the templates on the boat then took them home and cut the flooring and trim...

We bought Wine Knot a little over a year ago; she was a mess. Thirty years of hard work and poor updates. When we bought her not only did she look bad but due to a leaking injection pump on the starboard engine she smelled horrible with 25 gallons of diesel in the bilge. We gutted her...

I ordered memory foam mattresses off of Amazon - very reasonable - $295 for the fwd berth. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00II5MRBE?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00 We reconfigured the aft cabin on our 360ac from two twins to a California King - the mattress came vacuum...

better than the Sunday funnies... geez :smt021

Saverio is correct the sending unit provides the ground for the buzzer. If the buzzer has 12 volts when the ignition is on; check the other side of the buzzer for ground. It's very possible that the sending unit is bad - the easiest way to test is to turn on the key - pull the wire off the...

Do you know how it does with diesel/engine smells?

I work as Service Director for a large equipment company; we use Cummins engines on one of our products - they are the worst, bar none - the worst when it comes to response. It took us 7 months to get a replacement engine for a customer - just delivered it last week. Every time we have to deal...

Can you get your money back through PayPal?

Hi, What does it include? How much would you want for it? PM me. Thanks! Tim

Here are my notes: This is for my MarineAir compact unit - circa 1983. If your charge is correct - High side should be 150 - 160psi, low side 50-65psi. Unfortunately the gauges I have access to are for R-134 (automotive) not R-22. But the tech is coming out next week - $100 to show up and...

How long of track do you need? I have a '83 360ac. I took out the tamboor doors in the VIP cabin and have the tracks. They are long enough for about a 22" door. Will they work for you?

Spoke with a MarineAir tech yesterday - same issue on one if my units - mid '80's vintage. He told me R-22 is what was used. He also gave me some rough pressure numbers to test with. I'll post them later for future reference. I plan to test and recharge tomorrow - have access to R-22 and a...

I would definitely disconnect the RCA cables to test - it could be setting up a ground loop.

Thanks Jason! I just ordered a Cradlepoint from Amazon.

I installed the Fusion 700 a couple months ago, love it! Sounds great and works great. I have the bluetooth adapter and a wi-fi router to control from our iPhones; everything works good - except we are connected to the local wi-fi network connected to the Fusion we don't have internet access...

Just installed the Fusion - LOVE IT!! Sounds great, the iPhone app is really handy. It was expensive - but one of the best upgrades we've done.

Geez... had the Pinto, and Chevette also had a Vega - how the heck did the Vega not make the list. They were $100 cars though... what do kids do these days since they can't buy a $100 car? Helped me to learn mechanical skills keeping them running - I use those skills on the boat now :)

Hi! I have a 1983 355 aft cabin - its also known as a 360ac. I think we should start a thread for the 355/360 series. We bought her last October and we've spent the winter redoing the interior. We are about 80% finished with the project. We took out the twin beds in the aft cabin and...

Wow!! Sounds like a great day to spend a day off. Thanks for sharing!!

Hi Kelley - this is Tim I have the 360AC on the next dock over from yours; we met a couple weeks ago. I have manuals on the Vacuflush systems if you want copies. Also - have you checked that the circuit breakers are on? When you turn on the circuit breaker you should hear the vacuum pump...
