    Steering wheel wrap

    Wheel wrap. Geoff, I chose to leave my varnished teak wheel exposed for aesthetic reasons but did wrap the previous identical mahogany wheel. Now I only have a small part of the binnacle guard wrapped for reasons I can't remember, maybe no reason at all. I think this is called a French hitch...

    Running engine on the hard

    Flushing from a bucket. I have an onboard fresh water management system that taps into our tankage that I use for flushing the heat exchanger to keep it from sitting in salt water in the slip or on a mooring elsewhere while the engine is at rest. The point of mentioning this is that after...

    Boat Hook Keeper

    Stowing our boat hook(s). Fellers, I stole Larry Pardey's trick for boat hook management aboard our boat. I attached two bronze rings to a shroud, one just above the turnbuckle and the other near the top of the pole. The gaff fits into the lower ring and the upper one secures the pole end...

    tank

    E31 hull #47 contact info. Michael, I checked my private messages and didn't see one from you. Will you contact me directly at glynjudson@roadrunner.com? I'll be happy to share a bit more about our holding tam=nk installation and the electric macerator piping put, etc. Thanks, Glyn

    tank

    Replaceement holding tank for your E31 hull #47 Dear John, I have no reason to suspect that the original tank in your E31, hull #47 was any different from the one in our E31 hull #55 and if that's the case, contact the OEM, Ronco Plastics here in SoCal and arrange to have the identical tank...

    Yanmar 3GM in E27?

    Yanmar 3GM in your E27. Dar friend, In fact a 3GM will fit into the space provided by your E27. It's tight but perfectly revocable, etc. I have a friend her in Marina del Rey with that same engine in his E27. Do it and let us all know how happy your are with the added power. A 10-12 hp...

    Placement and connection for hour meter on 30+

    Hour meter placement. Brian, I placed my meter in the port coaming just above the Yanmar instrument panel. It works well there, is waterproof and keeps on keeping on, see the attached image. Seen from top to bottom are the Autohelm head, hour meter, Yanmar panel and below that the fuel gauge...

    Show me your interior cushions!

    Is it still made? Goeff, I just don't know. Some in the business say it isn't, yet others have told method they have found it through their known sources. It is well worth searching for but if not that, a similar fabric. Glyn

    Show me your interior cushions!

    Interior cushions Goeff, Sherene & Mike in their 38 have the identical fabric we selected for our boat. That stuff is bulletproof and hides stains and dirt from the two of us, many nieces, guests and always two big dogs I'd guess that we had them made around 1997 and they still look as good...

    E-34 engine seawater intake; built in thru-hull strainer

    Sea strainer shapes. Patrick, I too worried about the small size of the factory strainer and minimal holes so I replaced it with a larger round base, domed shape one from Buck Algonquin. Seems to have worked for me, maybe for you too. All the best for you and the family on and off the water...

    Blower motor venting seems all wrong!!

    New blower fan. Fellas, Before buying a replacement blower for your noisy fan, talk to the market and ask if the motor us designed for continuous operation. Most are including the one I have. Best of luck, Glyn Judson, E31 hull #55, Marina del Rey CA

    Blower motor venting seems all wrong!!

    Are our blowers in the wrong place? Frank, You bring up a valid concern in that the way many of our boats were configured to move air with a blower, including ours, seemed ass backwards. It is for that reason that I set out to change that many years ago by fitting a bilge fan exhaust side to...

    Which Witch?

    Which Water Witch? Dear friend, My installation is probably similar to yours in terms of hardware. I have about a seven foot rise from the depths of my 42" deep bilge to the diaphragm pump. I have a bronze strainer at the bottom and an in-line fine mesh strainer near the pump. Every once in a...

    Wilcox Head

    Head install tip. All, When installing a marine head in a boat of mine or someone eases, I make it a practice to stack four Nylon washers (off the shelf at West Marine) between the bronze casting or plastic body of the toilet and the platform it's getting mounted to. Four of these washers...

    Where are all the 36C Owners??

    36C, photos of an old salt. Shane, Hmmm, I don't see your email address in my EYo inbox. Can you just email me directly at glynjudson@roadfunner.com for me to send the images on their way to you? Glyn
