Post Hello from East Tawas, Michigan


We are new owners to a beautiful 2003 360 SS and couldn't be happier. We decided to step up from our 21' Crownline open bow to a cruiser because, well we want to travel. Cue gas price increase. :-O . Anyway we are glad we did it. I joined this forum because we need some replacement parts like drawer locks and exterior courtesy lights. Hopefully, the helpful folks on here can hook us up.

Post Engine room reminder light


So the engine light reminder indicator died . I found it’s replacement on Amazon . I took the black casing with green indicator for its replacement. Simple, just make sure of your positive and neg wiring. Blue is positive and yellow neg. Just use a clear varnish to touch up old scratches.

Post Maxwell Windlass recommendations


Replacing my Maxwell Freedom 800 horizontal windlass , (no loner made) on my 1997 355 aft. Leaning to just going with the newer Maxwell rc8 model that is the suggested freedom 800 replacement by Maxwell.



1. Could I use the Maxwell rc 6 version (cheaper), would that be underpowered?

2. Also thinking of going with a vertical windlass so everything is above deck. Easier mounting and maintainer? Any disadvantages to vertical instead of horizontal?

3. Also considering lewmar 700 horizontal. ?



This wo ...

Post Free Gas


Not exactly but free energy none the less. Nice surprise when we pulled into the marina this year. They installed several of these in the town where our Marina is located. This one is in the marina parking lot so really convenient for us. Third time I have used the chargers. Being a very small town, there are hardly any EVs here and the stalls are always empty which I am sure will change as time goes on. The trip out to the marina is a good 2 hour drive at highway speed and that would be at 120k ...

Post Opinions on special sale


Friend asked for assist in selling boat. The vessel, a 2019 Power Cat 3500, was custom built to accomodate an owner confined to a wheelchair. As you can imagine, there is equipment unique to that requirement. Elevator to head, UMC crane built into pilot house to lift chair with person in it, ramp extended off swim platform for drive on/off, etc. Yes, they are going to take a real kick in the pants, but hope to minimize the pain. The vessel is a catamaran style with pilot house, twin Suzuki 300 ...

Post Malber P21 washing machine


Hello
So my washing machine has stopped draining- i had to use the front filter to empty out. I'll assume the drain pump is bad (i found one online and ordered it) but has anyone here had to remove and replace? I''ve not removed it yet but i will also check the drain for a kink or blockage
appreciate any help or ideas!

Post Anchor Roller Worn Out


My anchor rollers were in pitiful shape probably because the rode was all chain which takes a toll on the rollers. I did change my anchor and replaced my rode with 5/16"chain and 9/16" 8 plait rope which is what is required for my windlass and should resolve any more wear issues on the rollers.

Here you can see how the roller basically got cut in half due to wear and the material used was rather brittle. I looked for replacements however finding the correct size (hole diameter & width) was im ...
