Update, I installed the T series Sealand 24v. Although the specs state that if mounted vertically it will be somewhat less efficient, I cannot see any functional difference. This pump is equal in perf

Most of the Jabsco 'designated' bilge pumps of this type such as their belt driven bellows/diaphragm models range from 3.5 to 8 gpm. I think my current model is around 5 gpm. I'm betting the original

My boat has a Jabsco Model 59090-0012 Diaphragm pump that has failed. The pump is no longer manufactured. Parts may be difficult to find. Can anyone recommend a replacement diaphragm pump? James Sterl

Terrible loss and I'm so sad for you. I know how much work you put into her. I'm happy that you're safe and confident you will have a new beginning. James Sterling S/V Longbow SM2K #418

Island Moorings started kicking out liveaboards last year in favor of the large sport fisher type boats. They didn't fare well. Nothing is hurricane proof. Many of the big sport fishers are sitting on

Longbow, in the Corpus Christi City Marina was extremely fortunate. At the last moment the eye of the storm turned and hit Rockport 25 miles away. Rockport, a lovely little place, was almost obliterat

When I spoke to them last year, they said it was their personal opinion that the arch was a little high for the boat. I don't know if that's been changed after a few installations or whether it's an i

Thanks all, very helpful as I plan on installing one within the next 6 months. I'm assuming these are all schedule 80 tubing. S/V Longbow SM2K #418 Sent from Yahoo Mail. Get the app

Bill, Can you explain a little bit more about the process of pre-loading and bracing the Atlantic Towers Arch? Also, did you use standard backing plates? James Sterling S/V Longbow SM2K #418

Thank you Bill and Alexandre. Bill I will call you on Monday. In advance of that, in answer to your question, I do not know what batteries were on the boat originally. I don't know when Amel moved to

I'm about to replace my group 27 wet cells with group 31 AGM's. My bank has 8 in parallel connected on the negative by twos with copper plates. Since the AGM's are a little wider, jumpers will replace

I had the same issue on my boat. It confounded me and a marine electrician. I spent an extraordinary amount of time trouble shooting it. Eric is right that the most likely culprit is a faulty ground.

Many thanks to Kimberlite on this issue. The missing diode on the stop solenoid lead is the most likely culprit. The diodes, one on the stop solenoid lead, the other on the lead going to the starter s

I haven't been to T1G but aware of it. I've been to many places like it. Range layouts have become more effective in their layout in recent years. Seems that I remember T1G being the Olive Group at on

Got it thanks. The file Bill mentioned is on the isolated ground wiring diagram is missing. It may be somewhere else. However, I've isolated the problem. All save one (generator side) of the mystery w

Eric I'll email you some photos when I get caught up on other stuff in a few days. Many thanks. James
