Thanks, I have no idea what it does. The gate valve is stuck and the glass looks like it needs cleaning. I thought that maybe I would take the glass off and clean it before launching the boat. Let me know if anyone else knows about this glass thing. Always appreciate helpful comments. As I learn, I ...

Yes, it's caulking. The stuff has those shrink cracks all around the window. I'm going to buy the stuff today and get to work on it. Thanks for the advice.

On another topic: In the bilge there is a glass domed filter that is attached to a gate valve. Does anyone know what it is? What it does?

Boat Window Glaze

Anyone know what to do about re-glazing those small Port windows? I may not be calling them by the right name. There are two of them. One window is over the sink and the other on the port side of the boat. They both screw tightly into place when closed. The white caulking on the outside of the windo...

I must be getting old. My Trojan is an 11 meter 38'. I just can't stand rain water leaks coming through the railing bolts! Every time it rains I have water on the sink and deck area around the sink. It really is getting to me. I'm going to try fixing it myself. The trouble is getting at those damn b...

Railing screws loose

So, I have rain water coming into the boat. Many of the screws holding down the railing don't tighten. I took down the ceiling under over the sink and found that the screw is bolted. It's not easy reaching them. Has anyone done this before? I own a 1987 Trojan international. Suggestions are apprecia...

I verified the gauge iss good by swapping it with the Port engine gauge and the one I thought was faulty works fine on the other engine. So then i replaced the water temp sending ...

Deck Laminate

Anyone know how to repair deck laminate? I like the deck fiberglass pimple look and wondered if laminate is available in sheets or do I have to run fiber fabric?

Boat Leak Down Port Window

Guys, thanks for the suggestions on the leak. It turns out the window was not leaking. One of the railing screws was loose. I could not tighten it from the deck. So, I went into the cabin and removed the plastic light cover over the sink and found the problem. There was no washer against the nut hol...

Air Condition

Questions. I have the 1987 Trojan 11 meter with flybridge. Neither of my a/c units blows cold air. It turns on fan and all that stuff, just no cold air. I'm thinking it may need a recharge? Also, how do I empty the toilet holding tank? I did notice on the stern deck that their is a pump under it. Do...

Water Leaking down bulkhead onto sink counter

Hi guys, I'm new to the forum and have this water problem. I just bought a 1987 Trojan 11 Meter Flybridge Sedan. I noticed during a heavy rain that water was dripping at a good rate down the port wall over the sink onto the counter and to the floor. Not much I could do about it with it raining. The ...
