Bill, I also have the 160 L/hr dessalator on Brava. Would you mind posting a "before" and "after" plumbing diagram for the freshwater rinse system you installed? Also maybe a picture or two? I have

What model March pump did you get? I'd be interested in hearing how it works. Duane Wanderer #477

Grazie mille!!!

Good morning Tom, On SM2K #289 NIKIMAT it is at the U seat in the salon. More precisely near the air conditioning vent (Port side - near the forward wall) There is a triangle piece of wood, with a

I am installing a new Raymarine auto helm system. I need to replace the fluxgate with the new EV-1 sensor. Does anyone know the location of the fluxgate? Thanks! Tom Peacock Aletes SM2K 243

HI BILL, I thought SM2K’s had Klimma AC units? I accepted Riza’s suggestion that Webasto was a better choice for out refit… I can state that our Webasto is doing great in 95F temps with 100%

If you are looking for a replacement or a spare, here is something perfect, I think. I bought one as a spare. March pump AC-5C-MD 230v 1020 gph Replacement pump for Cruisair PMA1000C

Hi Bill, You may recall I experimented with these on the ONAN and they didn't last any longer than the stock impellers. I even changed the 2-piece ONAN pump housing for one piece Sherwood pump - no

Bon jour, JP, merci. CC is interesting, but I'm not ready to take that leap yet as I plan to do the vast majority of my sailing in tropical climes. I'll look at it all again when this paint is ready

Hi Kent, Boat is in Turkey, Goček, finishing a long refit. Water temp was moderate until 2 1/2 weeks ago. Now at 29-31C. Previous boat was based in Majorca ... Some tropics and some moderate temps.

Where were you Jean Pierre? Cool water or Tropics? Kent

Got it that time Bill. I remember seeing it when you first posted it. Pretty impressive difference. Thinking I'll probly go with Island44 next time and buy enuf to paint again in 4 years unless

Hi Kent, I have Coppercoat and the boat has been in the water since April. She had to come out for repair last week and she had a Clean bottom. No green fuzz, no barnacles. Got precisely 8 knots at

Hmm. That link wouldn't open on my iPhone. I'll try it again on my laptop. If next time I decide to paint with something not available here, I'll probably be somewhere outside the U.S. and EPA
