One of my vents is having a bushing problem or something (making a screeching sound). I reached out to Marinco a couple months ago and was advised that the rebuild kit is no longer made. Matt From: 2bbauman <2bbau...@gmail.com> Sent: Sunday, December 06, 2020 8:15 PM To: Stus-List Subj

Martin: I believe the 42 Custom is a different (albeit similar) design. My understanding is that six were made. One of the owners has been keeping track of the boats and reached out to me a few years ago. As I recall one or two are in bad shape, but the rest are going strong.

I have had what I consider reliability issues with the older Nicro and the newer Nicro day/night vents. Having said that, the latest Nicro/Marinco seems to be doing well. I replaced the motor in the previous one and have it as a spare. My issue with the new Marinco (Nicro) day/night vents is the

It works. 3vdc. The battery is 1.5 I think. There may be a better choice. Just need to get the motor and shaft diameters right and the voltage close. -- Dennis C. Touche' 35-1 #83 Mandeville, LA On Mon, Dec 7, 2020 at 10:40 AM Matthew wrote: > Is that the correct voltage? > > > > *From:*
