Re: Best way to run wires to Radar/chartplotter
On my 1996 F35, Pedrick design, All radar, gps, and autopilot wires are fed through the 1" pedistal. Some on the right, some on the left post. A caution on the new chartplotter.

Re: In Hull Transducer
I have an 1996 F35, Pedrick design. I added a thru hull about 2 ft to one side of keel and when the core was removed it was a good 2 inches thick ( and dry!).

Re: Dripless Shaft Seal
I also had a small leak and was able to stop it by sliding the collar aft so that it pressed tighter against the carbon? bushing/bellows. There are two set screws, one under the other, that hold the collar in place the first has to be removed to access and loosen the second.

Re: 3gm30f secondary bleed screw on my F38, HELP, how to tighten
I have had a similar leaky bleed screw. I replaced washers and tightened but it would work loose. Then of course I over tightened and stripped out the threads in the housing. Then $45 lighter and with new pump in hand I replaced the pump and have not had a problem since. I do "snug up" the bleed scr...

Re: F 35 running rigging replacement
Hi Mark,
I have a copy of the F35 running rigging list. However, it is on the boat and it will be about a week before I get back down. I'll post it after I get it.
Which boat did you buy?
