not in tech wiki and under tech notes, says not there, renamed...so bottom line, could not find it

PS what year was that article? thanks again

for good or bad, I already bought the Bomar

I have a new one to replace the old leaky hatch. previously someone posted a good description on how that should be done. Would appreciate that again, since I have misplaced it. Thanks

I checked into Jon's idea of the Vetus 2 but Vetus does not make such a model. could it be the 140? does anyone know the input in L/min and internal hose size? Thanks

i had that until i removed the hatch and re-bed the hatch. now, no problem with brown water

The Chesapeake is a messy place. Often I have to remove the engine intake line, unscrew the filter and run a flexible metal wire down and out the boat...then put it all together. I was thinking about putting a Y piece below the filter so that I could access the intake for cleaning without having to remove the filter piece....
Anyone try that?

1. fuel tank. 35 years old, 1990 boat. some pitting. Is there a time to replace?
2. water tanks. hard to inspect the stern one. they are apparently plastic. Same questions. Time to replace?

After 34 years it's time to replace the molded hose that comes out of front of engine for closed cooling system and the hose that runs back to the heat exchanger. Where to obtain and size? Thanks

Dumbest mishap ever. Put 23 gallons of diesel into empty stern water tank in error before catching it. Let it run into bilge, pumped it into buckets and properly disposed of it. Cleaned up as well. What is best way to assure that the water tank is clean. The very helpful fellow at the dock said vodka!

opinions of Keenan Filters for fuel polishing etc
cost for our boats about 1325 bucks! Thanks

i can vent the propane out the stern. Does this mean that the stove and oven has to be entirely replaced because of the burners?

I still have the original CNG installation
would like to convert to Propane but of course do not have a propane locker and that boat has the simple sugar scoop stern, no walk thru
so where to put it, is my concern. Thanks

I used it for the deck and non skid 2 seasons ago per instructions. Freshioned it last season.
Now it looks like sealed in dirt.
I used their removal agent and it hardly works. Was a miserable day trying.
Any easier or faster way to get it off the deck and nonskid?
PS, it's not bad on the hull and I thought i would leave it there, if I can clean the few black streaks.

while we are at it, what model is our original airmar boat speed transducer?
