Last year I removed my 1984 Universal M25 with 690 hours on it (boat was new to me). I sand blasted/painted it, replaced the exhaust riser, impeller, coolant pump, engine mounts, Propeller shaft,...

Re: cockpit drains/hoses

I have a Gen 1 Catalina 30. The hoses run like yours where the scuppers are connected to the same side as the thru hull. I wanted to criss cross mine like you were saying but the steering quadrant is...

Re: Would You But Another Tohatsu??

Re: A general social question regarding sailing

On our old Catalina 30 we used the spinnaker halyard as a Tarzan swing for over 20 years, all without injury. (don't tell anyone, but the secret is to...

Re: gun ads on CF??

Re: Coolant where it shouldn't be

I know on engines like a chevy/Mercruiser 350 that is the case but on this manifold it looks like they were specifically designed to not do that and have their own specific "tunnel" to go through. If...

Re: Bubbling Head
