With a heavy heart we have officially listed Bazinga for sale. It was a tough decision but in the long run it will pay off. We will be using the money to buy a new truck and a down payment on a larger boat. Hopefully another Freedom. If you or anyone you know is interested feel free to contact me. I...

Re: 30/32 Replacement Head

Thank you very much for the input. I looked at the Raritans and that is indeed what we have. I have located a couple that seem to be reasonably priced and seem to be better made than the Jabsco units. It would be great to have a Vacuflush system but from what I see, they may be slightly out of our b...

Re: Frozen Engine Shut Off Cable

I just replaced my cable on our 30/32. The marina we are at had one in stock. Only charged us maybe 30 dollars for it. The cable came right from Yanmar. The replacements go by the length of the existing cable. I believe there were four options in the catalog when we looked it up last year.

Re: Oil Pressure Switch vs Oil Pressure Sender

If you are looking to get rid of the annoying light and alarm until you can get somewhere to fix it, you can disconnect the pressure switch as it may be shorting out. Without getting to technical, the way these usually work is voltage from the light and buzzer will be provided with a path to ground ...

Re: Cleaning Fuel Tank

I just did this last summer on out 30/32. I had just bought the boat and the fuel and the boat had been sitting dormant for the last 8 years. The fuel was getting slimy and milky. I drained the tank (all 18 gallons of it) into cans. I then had a gallon of non aerosol brake parts cleaner from the dea...

Re: F-30 Running Rigging

I just got done replacing all of the running rigging on my F-32. I used a company I found on the internet and recommended to me by several others. Their site is www.cajunrope.com. I believe they are based in Canada. They are very reasonably priced and is good quality rope from what I could see. I ha...
