source

Is anyone familiar with a CNG source anywhere between Buffalo and Detroit? I'm in Cleveland and unable to find a local re-charge station although a couple of local utility companies use it in their commercial fleets! Thank you,

I have a 1972 Ericson 35-2. Does anyone have a good source for a Rudder Bushing. I removed the old bronze bushing. I am installing a new Foss rudder. It looks like the material to use is Vesconite. I can have it machined if I can buy the material somewhere.

After a recommendation from a marina neighbor we placed an order with WEBER PLYWOOD & LUMBER CO in Tustin. The order for teak veneer somehow got lost but they will remedy that by UPS shipping it to us for delivery on Monday. The 3/4" 4x8 sheets of teak plywood (bookfold one side, plugged on...

Ok so I thought I bookmarked the source for the people that are casting new Yacht Specialties binnacle mounts with the shift lever section in them. I cannot seem to locate it on a search of the site. Can anyone find that thread for me? Thanks, Guy Stevens

Maybe "block" isn't the right word for them ? Anyway, on the port side they are stacked two high, one for the jib/genoa and the other for the furling line. On the starboard side it is just one high and just has the genoa sheet. I am thinking of adding a second one on the starboard side...

I need to order some spinnaker sheets and the genoa sheets could do with replacement too. The fraying of the docklines (that was fast !) may also warrant attention. I'm only talking about a few 100 feet. Would Defender or Jamestown or one of the regular on-line chandleries be best or are...

I just purchased a 1987 ERicson 28. The P. O. pasted away 4 years ago and his wife cannot locate some the equipment that was removed from the boat. One of the missing items are the plastic knobs that screw on to the throttle and tranmission shift arms. (Why he took them off is a...

Our canvas guy just told us about ... http://www.perfectfit.com ... for SS fittings. They carry other stuff as well, having to do with canvas, but the SS fittings were the only things I had recent pricing experience with and they are really inexpensive ! They charge $8-9 for ea. a...

I came across a reference to this product on the Plastic Classic Forum: http://mikegyver.com/IdeasnProducts/airline-car/index.html I think inverters are pretty efficient but the adapter might save a few watts. -Sven

I just found a source for a telltale compass - an upside-down compass over the captains berth. I didn't know they were still made and was actually searching for a used (antique ?) one. The price is of BOAT proportions: $390. A link to the manufacturer, Robert White...

Hello All-- I'm going to rebed all stanchions, and the pullpit and pushpit, before the rains hit, and I am wondering if anyone has a good source for backing plates. Rigrite sells both aluminium and stainless blanks. Does anyone have another recommendation on where to find backing plates...

I have started looking for two Anderson 46ST winches (recommended on a previous thread). The cheapest source I have found so far is running $1280 each. Does anyone know a place that might beat that? Gareth Freyja E35 #241 1972

What's the best source for "bulk" marine grade wire ? In this case "bulk" would be defined as 100'-500' rolls. How aboout shrink-wrap tubing and the like ? Thanks, -Sven

My next job is going to be a total clean up and rewiring, as well as re-routing new hoses in the engine compartment of our E34. I thought I would touch up all the spots on the engine where the paint came off. I Have not been able to find bronze engine paint anywhere. Anyone have any ideas???

Hello Folks, I am looking for a source for a Universal M25 Service Manual. I have the Owners Manual but it is a little sparce on details. I did a search on this site but nothing obvious popped up. Would prefere somewhere to download a file but any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks -...

What's a good source for SS sinks ? Not the tiny round ones I've seen at WM, but a selection including deeper square ones ? Is the dearth of boat sinks in catalogs because household SS sinks are good enough below decks ? Thanks, -Sven

Plan on buidling a new swim ladder, does anyone know of online source for 1"od SS tubing? I see it at West Marine are there other sources? Thanks. Dave

A number of the shackles and hooks on La Petite have failing or missing springs. Where does one get replacement springs ? I've had to buy complete pin-spring-ring rebuild kits for the snap shackle and pelican hook that I've fixed so far, even though all that was needed was a spring. At $16 or...

The shower stall of my E-38 (1989) came with two of those flat coat hooks that hinge and fold out. Well, one has broken off, and I would like to replace it, but I can't find them, and don't even know what to call them. Anybody know of a source? (Or even what I'm talking about?) If not I'll...
