View the latest post Trouble shooting AC on 3697


We got on the boat Fri evening and turned on the AC and both units started cooling. Went outside and sat and started some cleaning and when we went back in the main salon unit had quit. No life. Checked the breaker and it is working. Checked the inline fuse behind the switch and it is good. Any suggestions?

View the latest post Overhead courtesy lights, pot light style


Anyone have a source for these overhead lights that are in virtually all of our boats built from the mid 90's to late 2000s? The ones that have the gold plastic trim ring that always breaks, and the fixture takes a G4 halogen bulb.

I've been looking on eBay and haven't been able to source them...

View the latest post How much HP can Volvo AQ280PT handle


As the title says how much can they take? I'm getting ready to order parts to build a new engine for my Monterey project but I want to bump up the HP some. The original engine is rated at 260hp but I would like to raise that to 300/350 range with a modern EFI system.

View the latest post HELP! Shore power switch breaker - Carling switch


So my shore power 1 switch is broken. Switch is model number DG3-X0-01-246-131-C. Manufactured by Carling Switch. I am trying to find this part and not having any luck! Looking for new or used at this point. So another post on another forum where a guy had the same problem but there were no responses.

I am now trying to even locate vessels being parted out but don't know where to begin with that.

PLEASE HELP! We are supposed to take a group of 10 out in a week and I really want my fridges back online!!


Any help / info is appreciated.

View the latest post Attachment(s) Sea Flush


I have been looking into a system called sea flush. The funnels are pretty straight forward and can be made at home but I do have a couple of questions. If any of you have used this system were you satisfied with the results, and were you able to find any over the counter chemicals to use in place of the barnacle buster that the company sells. Thanks have a great day Ed
