Thanks so much for the comments guys I have ordered K&Ns and Asher I will call Gatewoods and talk with them about working on it for me.

Wait a minute the service company told me the paper were better than the K&N cause too many times the washable K&N would clog due to too much oil sprayed on them after washing. What type of gauges on the Racor? I've been told that the paper air filters would make it for a season is that not ...

So your headed from the house to Port A to get fuel and it's a pretty morning and the trip to fuel up is non eventful. Pull out of the marina and she is still running ok no sign of an issue. I head for the jetties there is quite a bit of traffic but nothing to make you want to turn around and go bac...

Where did you purchase the helm rebuild from?

Thank you both for your input I am in the process of discovery and contemplation as I work on a rum and coke listening to the gulls and Jimmy Buffett! Praise be to the designers and builders of my S/F!

I have taken out the 3 lower cover panels in the back of the cockpit. New blower motor for the generator and rebuild new tackle storage compartments etc. But my question is about the panel material that was used for the covers. The doors are attached to the panel and over the years the panels have c...

Here is hoping for the best for our country with the Trump administration, Congrats to the Super Bowl champs but most honorable mention goes to your being cancer free. I went through prostate cancer it was the worst moment in my life . I had the surgery to remove the prostate and have been cancer fr...

I had issues with being able to pee which is what brought the issue to be diagnosed. My surgeon told me that when I get over the surgery that my issues with flow would be solved. In his words you'll be able to pee like a 20 yr old and dribble like a 2 yr old. I feel very fortunate to have had the su...

I'm sure there are worse things to hear but the words " you have Cancer" is a phrase that still makes your whole life stop for a moment!! I was diagnosed with a PSA of 2 which is very low but still I heard that word. The Dr. told me that the biopsy was 12 small snips and would be over in a...

My spray shields were cracked and one corner broken off. I had them cut by a company in Corpus he charged me 180.00 a piece. I purchased a 1 foot section of 1" round starboard from him and made new supports as the original ones were cracked and discolored.

Asher did you do the rudder service work I am going to do that in March how does the old stuff come apart. Where did you have the 35 hauled I don't want to run her back to Freeport! You guys tell me that blowers are not important on a diesel boat and here you are talking about the type Buzz has on h...

Thanks for the help guys I am not as concerned with it now but I will still follow it up and hook them up just for my own satisfaction. Asher have you been out much I haven't seen another of your fishing reports. I was watching for some do's and don'ts and the Port A way!

So Asher you don't run the blower for the generator either, I would have thought having the blowers running would help keep the warm air moving especially while you are sitting still fishing?

Thanks Bill where are the main engine blowers mounted? I have vent hose hanging by the engines but it appears they may have been removed when the Cummins were installed! When I turn on the blower switch on the right breaker panel the unit blows out of the vent on the stbrd at the stern. So the vent ...

Ok I have the gen. blower switch on the right panel but it turns on nothing. The breaker turns on a noisy blower in the cockpit strbd side. So someone as referred to earlier may have altered the wiring and or switches in my boat?? Wow I bet that's a first for you guys to hear. Joe you say that both ...
