So I finished a massive refit on my boat and basically everything old was removed and replaced and new goodies added. But some of the equipment has failed just months after the boat was splashed.
My new windshield wiper has slowed to a snails pace on one of the units.
My new Bomar hatch was glitched. I will just include what my refit guy wrote me today: "The hatch had one O ring missing in the handle, the other handle was loose, went and got a new O ringed and installed, tightened the other handle, tested with water and no leak" It was this model:

My Espar diesel heater had problems with the coolant pump and a new one had to be installed.
My refit guy says he almost feels he should order a two of everything he brings in for a refit, the quality has become so bad. Realize my boat was only splashed back in roughly this past mid-August.
