Re: Project "Tri Fly"

Yes, the 440's I used to repower my F36 came with closed cooling so, a single pump for the manifolds, heat exchangers and oil coolers.

Re: Teak Deck Refinish

Cetol Light or Natural may give you the look you are after... This shot is Cetol Light with Cetol Gloss over top. The second one is a little fuzzy with the low light under the cover. http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm20/captainmaniac_boatpics/Wood%20finishes/8a8433cb.jpg http://i292.photobucket....

Re: Teak Deck Refinish

Cetol vs varnishes vs teak oil each have their own followers. For me Cetol has always provided me with what I feel is the best alternative. Easy to apply, holds up well, UV protection, satin non-slip finish and has had several improvements over the years. The newest "Next Generation" Marin...

Re: Teak Deck Refinish

Hi Ron, yes I did. Glad to hear that awesome 44 is getting looked after. I have never used the Sikkens Door and Window #003 personally. I always use marine finishes on my projects.

Re: Now I've done It

Hi Barrie, sounds like you have this figured out. By the way, my tri cabin has v-drives and yes, the starboard engine is the counter rotating. The engine you got from me with the hole in the block was the starboard (CR) engine from my boat. Jimbo.
