I have a PT40 2001, color tan. I am trying to match the color to fix some nicks from the past owner. But I am having a hard time matching the color. Would anyone what gel coat brand and exact color to use before I call a pro in? Or maybe some sample colors. Just an FYI, I tried Defender and...

I am venting!! I just up graded my bow thruster. So now I need a 12v to 24v, DC to DC charger and a IP22 30A charger and to new replacement props for the new thruster. So total order would be in the $570 range. On that note, the IP22 30A on Defender is $202.30 Everyone is selling it for...

Siren Marine just went up on the subscription rate. From $180 to $225 a year. For others that don't know. Siren uses a cell connection and no other. Without it, its useless! OK, not a BIG jump but a this could never end and like most people/boaters we are already paying monthly fees. I have...

I have bought about 4 or 5 matts for guest to wipe feet over the past years. Every one that I bought, seamed to trap the dirt under it leaving more of a mess than what its worth. Has anyone found one that without this problem? I hate to spend more money on one to just throw it away...

Before I beat my self up I thought I would ask this question. Has anyone removed the logo form the smoke stack. The blue I can get off with a heat gun. But there is a clear plastic backing that is not coming off. I tryed a heat gun and a few solvents. No go. For something that is over 20 years...

Before I go to a graphics place, I thought I would put this out there. I would like to replace the logo the side of the smoke stack/storage on the upper deck. Would any one know where I can get two of them?

I am trying to change the impeller. The old one came out with a little effort. Not bad for the first time. Yes, my first time changing it. I can not get the new one in. I greased the shift and the housing. I must have tried about 10 times. Putting it in and out. Just to be clear, I did have the...

Some of you read my thread on my bow thruster. Anyways.............. I decided to add one more battery and I found that Kilovault is having a sale. $100 off on their 200A battery and $150 off on their 300A. Both with free shipping. I live about 25 miles away and shipping would have been $70. I...

Wonder if this is worth doing? I have a 40' trawler with the 21 year old thruster that produces, as the spec's say 147lbs. of thrust. Now the next model up does 161 or 14lbs more. Cost $1,100 just change the motor out. Bolts right in! The next model does 212lbs of thrust, but everything needs...

I have a 40' trawler that is around 28,000lbs. I bought it with an SP55 thruster. At 12V should put out 147lbs of thrust. At the Newport Boat Show a few months ago I was told that it too small for my size boat. That I should go with a the SE80 with at 12v 212lbs of thrust. There is a SE60 but...

This forum lead me on to which seal I need and thank you! Now I need to replace it. The rudder arm needs to come off and more. This is no problem and it looks very starlight forward. But looking at a short distance 18". The seal looks even with the top of the fiberglass post. So before I dive...

I did read up on some past posting on this. But no brand names were mentioned. I called Twin Disk to be sure on the type of oil. They did say I could use a multi wight oil. Also that I could use synthetic oil, BUT I would have to change it ever 500hrs rather than every 1000hrs using...

I can't find much on this so I thought I would ask here. I have a Pacific Trawler 40 with a boom to raise and lower my inflatable. A past owner installed a electric winch to raise and lower the inflatable but not the boom. Right now the boom is on a 3 to 1 pulley system that I manual have to...

I have a Pepwave Max-Mini. T-mobile will not support it any more since its 4G. Any one have a Max-Mini? What carrier are you using? Not all of them will support Pepwave. Thanks in advance!

I installed at AP44 so the IS-15 that was not doing anything was removed. The last owner upgraded things and left it in. Overwise, there would be a hole in the helm. I don't know if it works or not and I have no way to test it. Just pay for the shipping and its yours! I was thinking that...

I have a 2001 Pacific Trawler. With that said, my Bomar hatch has stress cracks in it. I called Bomar, they gave me a part# for a new lens/glass. Cost was $300 I called Defender and ordered it. Well it came with 2 extra holes. Long story short in talking with Bomar, they never should have made...

I need a controller on my flybridge. Whats the real difference between the fu-80 and the ap-44 controller? Ok, the fu-80 has the knob/stick to control the rudder. Price is about $190 difference. Thanks!!

OK, I have another question. Where to buy new and I could be wrong on the terms, new hawes pipe cleats. Defender has the outer part and at a good price $54 but not the inner part. The best price I found was $165 and the inner or cleat part. I would like to replace all 6 of them on my boat...

I bought TZ Navigator last December. On Feb, 17th I added C-Map to it for $250. Now C-Map for your MFD is not the same format so its treated as two different products. A little disappointed but OK. On May 3rd I receive an e-mail that C-Map for Navigator has been updated. Unlike Garmin and...

Another stupid question. :banghead: Almost every 2 years I would have to buy a new rubber/vinyl hose for washing the boat or adding water. The hoses would break down from the UV and leave marks. The hose, other than that was good. I tried the expendable ones, but the cloth breaks too after...

Kind of a stupid question. I have a Seagull IV water filter from General Ecology. We do use it and we only use it from drinking and cooking. Just an FYI, there is also a UV filter and a cartridge before this filter too. I can't see us needing a new filter by the end of the season. This filter...

I have a question on zincs. I bought my boat last year so all this is new to me. The past owner left me with two sizes of zincs. The smaller one comes from the heat exchanger that uses three of them. The bigger ones, I can not find them on the engine or in the service manual. Would anyone know...

Looking for a set of 2-way radio headphones. I am at the helm and the Admiral on the bow picking up a mooring. Well, its hard to her! The only thing I can find is Bluetooth for phones or very expansive 2-way units in the $800 per pair units. any suggestions??

I am looking for the ABYC standards for using Lithium Batteries on board. The part that I am looking for is TE-13. I can only find small portions of it and not that the whole standard. Real point is, if I follow that standard on my install and something happens. I want to be covered under my...
