I just discovered, for my c34 1986, hull 99, the refrigerate hose foam is ripped, underneath the oven, and completely missing, from the wall of the aft berth to the Adler Barbor, in the aft lazerrette.  I don't know if it was ever covered or if it should be.  ideas?  should I cover it with foam from home depot, for house refrigerator?

thanks

fair.  I replaced two gaskets, on my becksons and rebed 6 of the 8 ports, since they all leaked.  i just hate the design where everything accumulates on the screens

(I didn't see anything about this when I searched here).  I have a raytheon st60 speed instrument with a signet paddlewheel.  The paddle has a broken paddle and the speed instrument doesn't work, fully.  when I went to my local marine place and ordered a new wheel, what came (and what is in the modern manual) looks nothing like the signet paddlewheel and according to the guy there, they never used signet.  has anyone ever heard of this before and should I just replace the broken signet with what should be correct with the st60?

this is my replacement leds in one light fixture, in my hull 99, c34 1986.  i can bend the base so the "bulbs" don't touch, but did I buy the wrong ones?

thanks

I replaced the V & aft berth with lights similiar to the Lunasea ones but in brass.  Got at the Defender sale for $11 each plus another $13 for the LED bulb.  I think the lights were from Seadog?  


Do you have the specific model #?  That sounds like a great price, I'd be very interested in them.  Thanks.

me too.  A picture would be nice.  Any problems switching from the old to the new?  I was thinking of just replacing the V-berth since we rarely use the aft cabin, but for that price, I'll replace all four.


what bulbs did you use?  thanks

i've been using evernote since I bought Pyewacket.  do you know if you can link notes together - like if I put in a note about "topside systems" that a port was leaking and all i did was open it, clean all the gunk out of there and probably should do all in the spring - is it possible to link that to be in both the note "topside systems" and "continuous todo", in the free version?  thanks

that's a really good idea!  i have bits of wood, from around the screw holes, which chipped out.  i'll glue that back down

then by hand with a sanding block should be more than gentle, esp since I'z a girl.
