Re: Stus-List Universal Engine panel wiring- Problem Solved!

Thanks for letting us know what you found. I'm still curious to know if you have a glo-plug solenoid. If you don't have, can't fine, can't wait for tefgel then silicone dielectric grease (spark plug boot grease) can be found at any auto parts store and is a good alternative. Josh Muckley S/V Sea

I once had a similar experience on Calypso a few years back when I used a tank of 20% biodiesel. I switched back and have not seen it since. My guess is the biodiesel was not properly formulated and some of the non-dinosaur fats separated out. My father-in-law's classic power boat went thro

I kinda like my cooling water ejection system. Periods of high water let me spurt water all the way across and over the pier astern of Touche'. Beware the "spurt zone"! It also lets me easily see the water while motoring. That's very reassuring. Dennis C. Touche' 35-1 #83 Mandeville, LA On S

I originally had the 1 ½” transom exhaust outlet that was used for the A4 on my 38. The 38 has a reverse transom, so the outlet was angled up at around 30 degrees. The PO had installed a Universal M35B, the installation manual for which calls for a 2” exhaust. So the water flow through my exhaus

On my boat, the primaries are the non-self tailing larger (Barient 28) winches that are forward, and the secondaries are the smaller (Barient 23) self-tailing winches aft. My trimmer stands at the shrouds so he can see the curl of the spinnaker. We put one or two wraps on the secondary winch, an
