Re: ICOM M502 and remote mic HM-127 problem

ICOM M502 and remote mic HM-127 problem

Hi all!

Re: Cheoy Lee keel drain plug… help!

So… for all that may be interested… the follow up… I searched around town and there was ONE local place that could order metric bolts in brass or bronze. Of course, I'm not certain of the size/thread...

Re: Cheoy Lee keel drain plug… help!

Thanks for the replies. Youngsalty, I wish I could tell you HOW to measure it. I have a cheap (but very useful) plastic screw gauge that I think I got from one of the hardware stores, but if this is...

Re: garboard/keel drain plug question

thanks for the replies. It was a new concept to me as well, but that's exactly it, to allow any water that leaks in to drain out. Here in the Northeast if that water collects and freezes, and then...

Re: Wilcox Crittenden 51 Type?

Wilcox Crittenden 51 Type?

So… I know this has been asked before, but it gets a little confusing. I have at least a partial ID on the head in our new(to us) Cheoy Lee Offshore 32. The casting says it's a Wilcox Crittenden 51...
