Hmmm. i got price from the list I was looking at. As for the spacers,
I think they would be a necessity given that I recall our cabin top as
quite thin.We will be here for one more day. I’ll check tomorrow regarding prices
for 6 with spacers and whatever else might be needed.– pat

Quote:Hi Pat,
I also am considering the NFM SS ports and called Michael Lux as you
suggested to Joe. The boat show price I received for six 5×12 ports was
$1529.10 which he said was a $37 per port saving. The $1529.10 price works
out to be $254.85 each. Just curious about the source of the $230 price you
mentioned in your earlier message.? Second question concerns cabin wall
thickness. Do you (or anyone else) know what that is? Alternatively, can
someone who has purchased these tell me whether teak spacers were required
to make up the correct thickness? Michael Lux mentioned needing somewhere
around 3/4 inch thickness. I’d be surprized if our cabins are that thick.
Thanks,
Phil fontaine – Aurora

We have a U shaped galley – also vintage 1982. The solenoid is forward
of the stove behind the “smoked glass” in a small compartment, just aft
the salon locker.– pat

Thatcher,
Mine is located in the forward end of the locker outboard of the stove. I
have the L-shaped galley so my stove is further forward than those with the
U-shaped galley. I would guess it is directly above your stove locations.On Thu, Jul 22, 2010 at 12:06 PM, Thatcher A. Stone, Esquire – Confidential
Attorney Communication<> wrote:Hi everyone. My boat was delivered new in 1982 with an installed propane
system. The propane jugs are outside in a locker, with an electric solenoid
to open the line. There’s also a regulator and a selector (two tanks).There’s a second solenoid nearer to the stove. The idea is if something
goes
wrong at the stove, one can turn a switch at the stove and turn off the gas
flow closer than the rear locker.Does anyone know where that second solenoid is mounted, before I waste a
lot
of time looking?Thanks.

We made this mod several years ago before LEDS were bright enough for
reading and cheap enough to afford. We replaced it with a 6″ cold cathode .
http://www.taylormadeproducts.com/taylorbrite/6in_ccf.htmlWe’ve never been sorry. It’s cool ( ie doesn’t give off heat ) and
energy friendly. It is also dim-able although we have not taken
advantage of this.We also installed linear version over the icebox in the galley (dbl
one), each side of the table (single one) and in the nav station ( dbl
with 1 red and 1 white ) ..We’ve been quite pleased.
We are now cleaning out the house which has been sold so we have
“original” parts to part with.– pat

We, too, use Scott and have never had issue with tissue 😉 ( groan now )
Not being in salt we hadn’t thought about ways to minimize flushing with
salt water. Thanks for the idea Bob.– pat

Wow, you guys must use an awful lot of toilet paper. I use Scott TP, the
1000 sheet rolls. Not soft and cuddly like Charmin, but when it touches
water it dissolves. You can use the normal amount and have no trouble
getting it through the head.I’ve had company on board for days at a time and never had a problem with
either the holding tank or head.Not that it’s not a good idea to stow the used TP separately, but I’ve never
found the need.To each their own, I guess.
As an aside, when I’m using the holding tank I use the shower for the
water. I try to keep salt water out of the holding tank. It’s better for
keeping the smell down.Bob

By accident I found a quick and effective way of removing the prop shaft
from the coupling.
DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME.
Attach a 50 foot 5/8 dock line to your forward stb cleat.
Let it drag in the the water until you start the engine
Put engine in fwd gear and rev up to 2000 rpm.
As the line wraps around the prop shaft between the prop and the strut it
will quickly pull the shaft out of the coupling (it acts as a screw as the
line is wrapped around the shaft)
no muss – no fuss – don’t even have to get your hands dirty
Add 20 knots of wind and coral reefs on either side of you and it makes for
a complete afternoon.
Thanks to Walt P ( Madness Hull #1) for the assistance in getting it back
together.

Quote:It’s a hole… about 44 x 32″ That big red hose is the deck was line.
Runs from the aft end of the aft berth where there is a thruhull to
the pump, under the galley sink, to the deck wash fitting on the port
side of the deck beside the anchor locker. Pretty silly… I am going
to move the pump to under the v-berth sink and use the sink drain as
the source of sea water (tee the fitting).See the vertical wall in the fiberglass, just behind the mast step?
That will be the front of the tank. The aft edge will be just in front
of the flat area in front of the deep bilge. This will leave me a step
for getting down into the bilge. My new fuel valve/filter/polishing
system(with a drip catch pan) will mount on one side there (pictures
later) and the valves/filters for the watermaker on the other side. I
am debating about topping the tank below the 2×4’s or coming up a few
inches on either side. There will be an access hatch for the fittings.
I will add another button to my TankTender for use as the tank gauge.
