I think I should just remind everybody that Albert is the Chris Craft master of the universe. Now that she's been in the water for a month, I sit here for HOURS every night in dead silence with no music listening for my bilge pump to kick on just to time it. (And I haven't posted the 'before' chine waterfalls and leaks that I inherited) The bottom of this boat is tight!! I'm going to have to get a bilge pump counter because it's just too painfully difficult to manually monitor when there is probably at least 6 hours between times it runs… I might hear it twice a day (verses before when I was measuring it in minutes) … I'm not sure if I mentioned but this boat had set in the water for 10 years without ever being hauled out.

Weekend project results from polishing everything on the port side. I took off the Masonite panel forward of the rail opening, and I think I like it better open. So do they make those cable connectors (third pic) where the cable connects on both sides? Where would I get those and some more of the cable itself?

So head #2 there's absolutely no instructions with this kit. I figure we just start taking apart and find all of the pieces in our service kit and replace those? The motor runs, just nothing happens in the bowl. And what does that lever on the floor do?? (Never had this model before) … update: think we found the problem (see pics)

So who has some experience with these jabsco 37010 toilets??? Macerator works perfect … water pump doesn’t work at all. Rebuild or replace? Is there an impeller and how do you get to it?

So what would the measurement on this copper pipe be? I’ve bought 3/8 and 1/2 inch compression fittings and neither fit! … UPDATE::: I’ve been to the hardware store multiple times and they have nothing that can help me (3/4 and 1/2 compression and shark bite won’t fit) … He says it’s 7/16 ID

You guys will get a kick out of this!!!! But after a week and a half of not being able to turn my water back on and probably nine trips to the hardware store … We have determined that nobody really knows if this copper is pipe,tubing or refrigeration tube … It's expanded and contracted to different sizes all over the boat. Here's what worked in the aft head with the leaky shower valve … Still working on the forward head but rigged a shut off valve of sorts so I can finally turn the water back on.

Interesting that this stair is solid mahogany (under the adhesive is plywood), should I sand and stain it? The aluminum carpet trim is original (was held down with frearson screws), is that anything special that anyone wants??

These switch ring things… What do you call them and where’s the best place to get more? Some of mine are missing and some are clearly varnished over.
