Pearson 365 and 367

Thank you guys for the insight.

How did you go about snaking the new hose?

THanks for the flash light warning.

I believe I have developed a leak in either the shower (most likely) or the sink fresh water supply lines.  Has any one replaced these hoses and how difficult was it.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Rich,

Thank you very much I will be getting one.

Lon

Rich,

That is a great price. Do you feel that it is pretty accurate? I just rented on for $30.00.  I would purchase one if it is easy to use and acurate.  You are right great to have on hand. Thank you for the heads up.

Lon

Thank you for all that you have done for fellow 365 owners and to be owners.  May God Bless and keep you and your family as you start and share a very special portion of you lives.

Kevin,

I the time being I am staying withthe feathering prop.  I will let you know how I make out.

Lookfar,  good luck, please keep us posted on your performance.

Thank you all.


Lon

Kevin,
The information that you provided is of great help.  The feathering prop that I have is a three blade.  I don't want to over load the engine with to much load.  I want to be able to run 20% below max RPM and get results like yours.  I have installed a smaller diameter prop with a little more pitch hoping that will work.  I will not be able to test it untill 5-17-08.
I will let you know how I do.  Thanks again.
Lon

Thank you Kevin.  Is 2,000 your max rpm?  As I mentioned in trying to achieve as close to 3,000 rpm as posible in order to cruise at around 2,000 -2,500 I had to reduce the pitch.  My top speed was 5.5 knots.  My transmission is a Hurth HDW-10 with a 2.14:1 ratio.  I would be very happy to achieve your speeds.  Any thoughts?

Lon

What speed are you able to obtain and at what rpm?  I have hull 402 which has a Universal 5444.  I replaced my Michigan 17/10 RH with an Auto Stream 18/11 feathering prop hoping to achieve better control in reverse.  During last season I adjusted the pitch to be able to achieve as close to 3,000 rpm when full open ( the max rpm recommended).  The pitch was reduced to virtually nothing in order to get to 2,750 rpm. I lost any available punch when needed in current or head winds.  Steerage in reverse was not improved to any great extent.  I am in the process of resizing the prop. Any information on speed and RPM is greatly apprciated as well as other sugestions.
