    Florida salvage boats

    I’m curious as where all the boats that were destroyed beyond repair by Ian will be dismantled. I’d love to purchase an L type flybridge seating base to replace my current back to back configuration.

    Siren Marine

    Just upgraded my MTC unit to the 3 Plus. All seems to be working fine so far. Just wondering if anyone is using the Siren Marine micro EPir motion detector for security and what your thoughts are about it ? We close all the curtains on our boat when we go home and wonder if the boat rocks if the...

    Siren Marine

    I purchased the Siren Marine MTC about 3 years ago. System worked fine until last year. I got a alarm that the bilge pump was running for hours. Had a Dock buddy check it and everything was normal. Then the daily cycle counter failed to reset. Tech support is friendly and tried to solve the...

    Spare Prop

    I thought a spare prop would be nice to have on my single screw trawler, and thought a used one would be easy to find. Boy was I wrong. A 26 x 20 LH 1.75” bore three blade propeller is nonexistent. So if I were to damage my prop I’m done until I can acquire a new one . So I’m thinking about...

    Prop question

    I currently have a 26”x 20 pitch left hand three blade prop on my single screw full keel 8 knot trawler. The prop seems to be the correct pitch as I can obtain rated engine rpm and it runs smoothly. I have no idea how old the prop is on this 30 year old boat. Now I’m looking for a spare prop...

    Boat Monitor

    Any suggestions on a reliable monitoring system. I’ve got the Siren Marine MTC system ( that’s no longer being manufactured)and it’s not very good. It’s suppose to send text messages when something is outside parameters, but doesn’t work and tech support can’t get it to work. They want me to...

    Refrigerator

    Ever since reading OC Divers post about the Summit Refrigerator he installed and reading everything I can find about how to make a marine refrigerator cool properly I decided it would be easier to just copy Mr. Divers solution and purchase a Frost Free Summit Refrigerator with an ice maker...

    24 volt Stern thruster

    I’m installing a 24 volt stern thruster. Manufacturers wiring diagram shows the 400 amp fuse in the positive line and the disconnect in the negative line. My inverter has the fuse and disconnect in the positive line , which is the way the manufacturers diagram shows for it to be wired. I...

    ProMariner 12-60

    I’ve got a Pro-Mariner 12-60 charging my house bank of 6 ( 6 volt Trojans ) from bank one of the charger. I just installed a 24 volt stern thruster powered by two 12 volt batteries in series. So is there any reason that I can’t charge each of the 12 volt batteries from bank two and bank three...

    Inverter charger combined or separate units

    I was about to purchase a Magnum 2812 inverter charger to replace the Xantrex that failed. Then talking to a seasoned marine electrical technician, he suggested installing a dedicated battery charger and a separate inverter. Reason being, the complexity of a inverter/charger is more subject to...

    Air conditioner water Pump relay

    I just installed a 9000 btu Air Conditioner in the forward stateroom and ducted it to the head and guest stateroom. I’m using a March water pump to feed both units and have plenty of flow to each unit. I currently have the water pump wired so it runs continuously when the breaker is on for the...

    Second 30 amp service

    I’ve got one 30 amp service and by using power management, it’s worked fine until I added a 9000 btu AC in the forward stateroom. I’m cool, but the two AC’s are all I can run on the 30 amp service. I want to install a second 30 amp service with breakers to run the AC’s, but want the ability to...

    Dinghy or no dinghy

    How many people do the Great Loop without a dinghy? We’re planning to do the Loop on our 41’ Europa Trawler. I don’t want a dinghy on the swim platform since we normally board thru the transom door. I’ve got room on the upper deck for a dinghy, but I’d have to install a crane. We plan to anchor...
