Re: 1971 F-26 Repower Diesel or Gas?
I'm glad it all worked out. That first high speed run kind of makes you forget all the problems along the way.

Re: wrong rear main seal

Re: Cabin wall insulation
is that the aft deck? i believe the 'lexan' that you are talking about is the 'weather skirting' (it dresses the area around the railings) that is used to semi enclose the aft deck of flush deck motor yachts.

WOW, that boat is clean! It's a shame the engine room is not on the same level as the rest of the boat.

Re: Running one engine on twin inboard
There is a 136 footer in our fleet and the captain lost one of the mains. She had to motor back on one engine but after about 2 hours she burned up the dripless shaft seal on the dead engine. There was a crossover valve that she forgot to open that cools the seal. The boat had to be hauled, shaft ba...

I plan to use Brother's Marine Transport out of Nashville. Eugene has been friendly and timely so far on everything to set this up. They will make a decision on moving day about disassembling fly bridge and they will do that if it needs to be done. There is no question that the bridge will have to ...

It is kind of a long triangle made of aluminum and looks like it ties everything together. It's hard to tell from your photo but it looks like you have one too, but is not secured...

I am sure with 65,000 boats trashed we will see more and although the sellers are listing the boats as storm boats (no choice I think because of the photos) sooner or later these boats will be up for...

Right again Paulprowlersfish wrote: hopefully its just the seal but the can could be rusted .
Most mechanics here in Florida would have replaced the all the fuel lines and the housing before looking at the seals.
