I have just ordered a new Onan MDKBK. Can anyone tell me the SPEC / supplier of the 4 rubber mounts that the generator sits on bolted to the bonded in wooden board? It would appear that not all these

Jay I guess this looks like the rudder holder plate bolts passage on the Maramu check picture attached - taken when rebuiding the rudder last year. on the Maramu the anodes are on the rudder,

We have the rudder zincs and the prop zinc. I believe the other grounding plate is for the SSB radio. Alan - SV Charisma - Mango #62 svcharisma@... the Adventure has just begun ~~~~~~~_/)~~ ~~~~~

Ian, Yes, that is amazing that you can use a stainless steel pan scrubber on the Copper Coat. No doubt the bottom of the keel would fair better in a minor grounding than softer antifouling.

Hope this helps. My father owned hull #30 and had same configuration.

Jay, I believe that there have been many modifications to that Mango. I seem to remember a late model Mango that had the zincs on the rudder like Santorins, SMs, 54s, 55s, and 64s. I am not sure of

Hi Amel Owners, I am trying to track down the location for zincs on my mango. Next to the grounding plate is a threaded hole that had a bolt in it. It goes all the way through. I assumed this was the

James Agree, the final dry application seems pretty thin, but it is very hard and very durable. I can't think of anything else you can vigorously attack with a stainless steel pan scrubber! We missed

Why not look at Supership Bottom Paint. Very high copper content

Ian, Thanks for your input. Perhaps erosion is not the correct term. I was just reading that the Copper Coat becomes thinner over time and will require touch up and an eventual recoat so at some

Thank you all for your input, we are rather convinced that CC will work good for us. However we will shop around for a good yard who can do it at a reasonable cost. We have to leave the boat somewhere

An additional data point on paint selection. We used Biocop TF on Harmonie. A multi season ablative that is good in both fresh and salt water. We wanted to avoid wondering how far up the

I use a handheld TDS meter and take the water from the ball valve in front of the flow meter. That's the direct output of the water maker. Cheers Alan Elyse SM437

When you are testing the water from the kitchen faucet you are testing the water in the tank. We installed a omega water sensor in the output line of the membranes. That gives me a better idea of

Chuck, In my opinion, there is very little risk for a few months back in the water. CW Bill Rouse Admiral, Texas Navy Commander Emeritus Amel School www.amelschool.com 720 Winnie St Galveston Island,

Thanks all for the replies and advice. The boat is going to be put back in the water without it being re-painted for at least a month. How bad will this be considering the rust on the keel and peeling

Dean the boat is in North Carolina until July then Brunswick Georgia until December then south to the Caribbean Thank you for the info Courtney Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

Bill, It is the bottom connection that leaks; the glass is not broken. I will check with Dessalator to see if valve is included with glass. Thanks Ben and Gayle La Bella Vita SM #3476S

Ben & Everyone with a Dessalator water maker, I'm not sure of this. Is the sight-glass cracked, or is the seal and joint leaking? Or, maybe the pressure valve is leaking. Have you looked at the

James Yes it is water based and rollers are easily cleaned on water. On the third day of applying in Trinidad a big black cloud appeared and unloaded on us. It washed the two coats we were applying to
