PDQ OWNERS FORUM

Thanks for the info, Doug. Without knowing the flow rate of my shower, it was hard to determine if the 1.6 gpm flow rate would be adequate. It strikes me now that I can measure the flow rate per minute with a bucket of known capacity. Nonetheless, I'm still wondering what capacity the 32s originally...

Question for the oracles of experience .... I am fitting am refitting my boat with an instant hot water heater and have no idea which capacity is adequate. My highest concern is having adequate hot water when using the shower. I would prefer to go with the 1.6 gpm unit as it is smaller and does not ...

At this stage of my life there are very few gifts that can get me excited.....but I was fortunate enough to get a wonderful surprise in the mail. I want to express a public thank you for my appreciation for the generosity of Angela and Charley of Magic Dragon for sending me an original, mint conditi...

Thanks for the tip, Mike. Any news from Katana's previous owner yet as to the source for the seal you installed?

Hi John, Great hearing from you. Yes, I would like info on guy that did your windows if you are happy with his work. Do you recall what he charged? I'd rather pay someone if the price is right then do it myself. Please give my regards to Regina. Let's get together the next time you are in So. Cal. M...

Thanks, Mark ... I appreciate the information.
I've got a one piece (trim and seal) sample coming from a manufacturer here in So. Cal and will post the info if its the real deal.

Mike,

The formula I found is L X W divided by 15.

That's 34 people (including one insane owner) for our boats !!! ...

And about 26 more people then I would ever want out sailing with me.

Mike.

Thanks, guys .... yes, that is the seal I am looking to replace.

Mike, if you would ask the previous owner of your boat it would be most appreciated.

Has anyone replaced their sliding hatch seal recently? Can you recommend a source?

Thanks for your help,

Mike.

Thanks Angela and Charlie and Mike for your input. Siince my original posting, I have learned some information that some might find interesting. I had made an inquiry to a facility in Canada that responded: Hi Michael, We were the manufacturers of the windows for the PDQ 32 from 1996 to 2003 when th...

Mike, If you contact James on this forum, I believe he can direct you to a fabrication shop for custom formed windows. Best of luck. Chet White Thanks you so much, Chet, for this most useful information. I really appreciate your help. Do you have more information as to contacting James ... what is ...

Hello to all - After spending an hour using my best attempts to search the archives, I've been unable to find a past discussion relating to salon window replacement. Given the age of most of our boats, I would think this would not be such a rare issue. Has anyone replaced their black acrylic salon w...

Thanks for your help, amytom. The price of the 3.2 gpm seems too good to be true at under $300! I couldn't find any details about the product at the Excel website. Do you know what type of warranty they offer? Can you give me an estimate as to the size of the unit? Is the answer obvious if I ask whe...

I need to replace the 110 water heater with a propane unit. Has anyone done this lately? Can you suggest an instant hot water heater (manufacturer/model) and a source? Any installation tips? Thanks for your help.
