Marinepartssupply in Nanaimo BC has the parts in stock, as well as a complete pump for less than $400.00 CDN. Seals are available as well as most other... -
KH,
Nice writeup, thanks for such a detailed post. We're thinking of doing the same on our 38, nice to have a breakdown of the costs and materials....Leave a comment:

I've inspected the manicoolers from the inspection ports but not had to remove them. Opening up the ports gives you good access to the exhaust runners,... -
Too funny! I may have to try your prescriptionš¤£

We did the loop on our 38 last year, 14 months liveaboard, for the two of us it was an ideal size.

You've asked specifically about the manicooler, which is open only to the fresh water (antifreeze) side so fresh or saltwater will make little difference...Leave a comment:

Looks good without the boot stripe! We had a 2858 7.4mpi/B3 with a vetus bow thruster. What size thruster did you install? I found our 21kgf a bit weak...Leave a comment:

Wow, an extended 2858! We had a 1998 2858 and loved it, 7.4 mpi, B3 outdrive and a bow thruster. Once you get it all sorted you'll love it. We need pictures!...Leave a comment:

I ran into the same thing, anchor rollers in general were impossible to find, I ended up with a generic trailer roller till I could fabricate this one.... -
It is handy to have, this roller was about the limit of my lathe diameter wise. It's a Taig desktop mini lathe, but did a great job on this project. If... -
New Anchor Roller
The original anchor roller on the pulpit of the 38 started to fall apart half way through our loop so had to make due with a less than optimal roller... -
While I agree that multiple charge sources will eventually cut back on output, it seems to me that that will only happen once the battery voltage gets...Leave a comment:

The 38 looks surprisingly good without the bridge! With the bow thruster and 2 Group 31 agm batteries, 200" of 5/16" chain and the 20 kg Vulcan...Leave a comment:

It's not that big of a job, if you remove the rudders first the props and shaft should slide right out. To remove the rudders, I believe there is a lock...Leave a comment:

When I upgraded 5 years ago, I went with Navico as well, although I chose Lowrance for the components. Twin HDS Gen 2 chart plotters, one with full depth...Leave a comment:
