Re: What boat fridge do you use?

We have a Norcold AC/DC fridge. We run it off AC shore power and generator most of the time. On the hook, we turn the generator off at night, so it runs DC overnight. Draw is 3.2 Amps at 12 Volts DC, 2.2 Amps at 24 Volts DC, 0.4 Amps at 120 Volts AC. We like it and it has run well. Our insurance com...

Re: Rudder Gauge

We have an 88 International, and am not sure what you are talking about. Maybe it was an option, or added later? We have a rudder position sensor as part of our auto pilot, but it was added later and is tied into the NMEA network on our chartplotters.

Re: AC replacement-10 meter sedan

We replaced the compressor once since we bought the bought. Then we had a entire system failure. We gave up the cabinet for the salon and put 2 all in one units in it.

Re: Holding tank sensor

I ran new wires to a new monitor panel I put in the hallway. Also replaced the sensor with a 3 level unit, as they get flaky after a few years.

Re: lower controls for 10.8 meter sedan

Even if i had lower controls on my 12 meter, I can't imagine using them to dock. The advantage of lower controls, in my opinion, is transiting in open water during inclement weather.

Re: Bought 12 meter, qx on overboard discharge

The hose goes from the holding tank to a splitter, where one goes to the starboard gunnel, and the other goes to a macerator under the starboard cockpit deck into a through hull on the starboard side underwater in line with the raw water wash down inlet (which is in the same place on the port side).

Re: 12 Meter Pulpit

I'm guessing the 1" starboard is there to cover up the blemishes of the old setup. I'm trying to understand why the Sea Wolf 520 was installed on the 4" block to begin with. Was is for decoration or for purpose? It seems like if your setup works fine with just a 1 inch lift a zero inch li...

Re: 12 Meter Pulpit

The previous owner put in the aluminum. There is like a 1" block of Starboard under it. We changed out the existing anchor for a Rocna 44lb. Vulcan Anchor Model 20 with 100 feet of 5/16" G4 chain spliced to 200 feet of Nylon Brait 8-Strand Rope. It works fine for us. The windlass sits righ...
