Re: Stus-List winterizing engine

My boat has a T on the inlet and one hose goes to the engine and one to the wash-down pump. To winterize I just shut off the thru-hull and pull the hose off the wash-down pump and stick it in a bucket with anti-freeze in it. The following only applies to raw water cooled engines, so all the FWC

Stus-List Broken Strut

So, my prop strut was broken when they hauled my boat this year. I got, "did you know your strut was broken? You must have had terrible vibrations." I didn't have any that I noticed. Then he says, " maybe you should go to a regular prop" I said " that set up has been on the boat 40 years w

Re: Stus-List further questions about replacing the bellows

Jim, funny how these things mushroom. I started with replacing the stuffing box and decided on the PSS. Then I ended up replacing the shaft, coupling and the cutlass bearing. The good thing is that the shaft will probably last longer than I own the boat. The bad thing is that after all costs

Re: Stus-List winterizing engine

Dwight, I don’t intend on bragging, but we are normally about 7-10 C colder in winter than you are. I lived by the sea for many years and I know how the extra wind chill and humidity can feel, but for the hard freeze of the water it does not matter that much. I know that the 20 l of antifre

Re: Stus-List Broken Strut

The guy at the yard checked buck algonquin with no luck. I did look around and there was no apparent neglect. However, they had already powerwashed everything by the time I got to see it. It is obvious they are not owning up to it and I have no reason to think otherwise except the fact that t

Re: Stus-List Broken Strut

A machine shop can probably repair it but why not let a strut repair expert do it? There are several strut repair/custom strut shops.  Google "propeller strut repair" for one near you.  Here's an example: http://www.hhprop.com/machined-running-gear/strut-rudder-repair.php Dennis C. Touche' 35-

Re: Stus-List Broken Strut

Hi Danny, In most cases it is pretty obvious if the joint has been exposed to seawater and/or oxygen for any length of time. A "bright" bronze is recent exposure. Normal power washing won't clean up tarnish. Any indication of fresh bronze in the broken area? Cheers, Russ Sw

The other thing is the colour. Is it a nice bronze, or pink? On 15 November 2013 16:33, Russ & Melody wrote: > Hi Danny, > > In most cases it is pretty obvious if the joint has been exposed to > seawater and/or oxygen for any length of time. A "bright" bronze is recent > exposure. Normal powe

Re: Stus-List Broken Strut

Hi Danny, ... showing green, I think you're on your own. It's probably worth taking it to a machine shop for a repair estimate. It's really no big deal to do a brazing repair on something like that. Cheers, Russ Sweet 35 mk-1 At 04:42 PM 15/11/2013, you wrote: No, not reall
