I have lost 12-volt power to the over head light in the head. Unfortunately the wiring appears to have been done before the deck was put on the boat and I can't trace it nor can I find a path to run a new wire to the light.

Look for ideas besides replacing the light with a battery powered one.

Thanks

Main Message Board / GFI not installed
January 20, 2022, 11:38:16 AM
My 1996 doesn't have a GFI on the AC system. Previous owner removed GFI as it kept going off. I have checked the entire AC system, all appears to be properly wired and ground. Yet when I put the GFI back in, it goes off.

Suggestions?

I change the oil regularly on my 1996 M35 Universal but can't seem to get all the oil out when I change it. I can get 2.5 - 3 quarts out regardless of whether the boat is on the hard or in the water yet the engine should hold 4-5 quarts according to the manual. I have taken the oil out from the hose on the bottom of the oil pan and tried sucking it out of the dipstick and still when I put new oil in it is jet black as if I didn't change it.

My mechanic says that yeo this is a problem with this engine but has no answer.

Main Message Board / Deck-stepped mast leaks

The mast on my 1996 34MKII has developed a leak. The water is running down the sides of the metal compression post.
It there a "quick fix" that I can do this summer to abate the issue then pull the mast in the fall?
