Starlink?

Has anyone installed Starlink on your PDQ? If you have done so or are planning to add it (like I am), I appreciate hearing how and where you plan to mount the flat rectangular antenna. My plan is to figure out a way to easily and temporarily mount the antenna and run the cable outside the mast down ...

Re: Hull Parts, Bow Cap and Spray Deflector

Josh,

Could you tell what kind of "filler" you used to patch your Spray deflector? Mine has a few small nicks that I think could be filled.

Re: Replacement Princess Stovetop

We replaced our faulty Princess cooktop in 2016 with a Thetford Spinflo-Topline Cooktop. This 2 burner LP gas cooktop is better built, more reliable, easy to clean and wonderful to cook on (compared to the Princess). The cutout hole needed minor modifications. It is often found in high end motor hom...

Vented cap on Hydraulic Helm resevoir?

I noticed recently that the SeaStar manual for our helm hydraulic system states that the cap on Flybridge helm should be "vented". The upper cap on our system sure looks the same as the un-vented cap at the lower helm. Does anyone have a vented cap on the upper helm? If so, what does it lo...

Re: Hydraulic Steering Rams

I have leak in my Starboard hydraulic steering ram. My port ram is dry. The starboard ram just started leaking recently... got a fair amount of oil dripping under it. I have had any steering problems. I'm thinking the source of the oil leak might be 2 things: 1) I filled up my upper helm steering re...

Re: Galley faucet handle

I bought and tried a Scandvik replacement model (#14023)... It does NOT fit the flex hose. I contacted and sent pictures to Scandivk. The president sent a friendly response saying my handle is NOT one of their models. My next try was Ambassador Marine. They bought Shure Marine some time ago. I sent ...

Galley faucet handle

Does anyone know the brand and model for the standard faucet on our PDQ's? The chrome plating has peeled off my handle and I'm searching for a replacement. I'm making a big assumption that most of us have the same galley faucet attached to a flex hose. I thought the brand might be Scandvik, but they...

Prop Rotation

Which way to my two props rotate? I'm assuming both props turn outward, so that the port prop turns counter-clockwise and the Strb turns clockwise. So the port would be called a LEFT hand prop, the strb is a RIGHT hand prop. Is this correct?

Found it at McMaster-Carr.com -- ordered two at $7.42 each. This is a BIG hardware company with good customer service.

Re: Bow roller quick release pin

That may be IT, John. Good find! I looked at Defender and did not see this there. I’ll double check at Defender on how they are measuring the length. I also found another source this evening for $4.50 ea.

Bow roller quick release pin

Does anyone know where I can buy a couple of Stainless Steel quick release pins for securing our anchor in the bow roller? I found what I think is the correct pin. It's model "QRP 5.0" (5" useable length between the ring and the ball) made by Kingston Anchors Marine in Ontario. I have...

Re: Berth porthole arms

Nice. Thanks for testing it. I'll be lubing our window arms on Fri when the boat comes back from charter. I'll probably use "Super Lube" - it's a synthetic grease that seems to work really well on most everything.
