Post Icer-Ette Model 85 Ice Maker Inop


We bought a 1998 405 Aft Cabin and during the Survey the inspector could not confirm the ice maker was operational because of a fresh water pump issue. Knowing this when we bought the boat, I figured since the aluminum plate below the ice tray was cold that at least the compressor was functional. After bringing the boat back to our home dock, a three day journey, I determined the causal factor was an inoperative cooling fan motor. I removed the fan motor and tested it and sure enough it was not ...

Post Stern thruster SP1300 replacement


Hello all, I have a 2008 59’ Marquis. The stern thruster has stopped working. It is a Volvo Penta SP1300, 24 volts. Two motor shops have told me the motor is too far gone and can’t be rewound. I would like to replace the motor instead of changing over to another brand of stern thruster. Anyone, with any suggestions, would be greatly appreciated. The part number for the motor is 41100656, but, it is no longer available.

Post Onan generator 50Hz for US?


So I was on Cummins Quickserve portal tonight downloading the manual for my Onan generator. As I was looking closer at the nameplate data (see pic) I realized it says it is a 3000rpm / 50Hz. The 50Hz is kinda throwing me for a loop. If you look close, to the right of the "Model No" it looks like a sticker has been applied with "10.0MDKWB" on it. It kinda looks like it is peeling up a bit at the end so I don't know what that's all about either.

I used the actual Serial Number from the namepla ...

Post Marine Pricing Rant


So my masthead light plastic lens is starting to yellow some and I tried finding a replacement. Could not find one however I was shocked at the price of a new masthead light assembly by Perko which is the one I have.

https://marinepartssource.com/led-masth ... 0170bm012l

Found one very similar and actually has the same mounting hole pattern dimensions so installation is very easy. The Five Oceans unit is about 1/8" wider and 1/2" taller but otherwise looks pretty much the same. ...
