PDQ OWNERS FORUM

hi nick, don't know if you saw this. i have complete article if you want. Effective 0900 tomorrow (Tue 3/24) the Bahamas is closing its borders and no foreigners may land by private vessel or any other means. Also, there is a 24/ curfew as well as many other restrictions. Those of us already here ar...

hi duane, when we went for survey with minimum weight we made 18.5 knots. when we cruise to bahamas we're fully loaded fuel, water, 6 months provisions, 10.5 ' rib with 15 hp, bikes, etc. for the past 2 days we crossed florida and we ran both days at 14+. i remember talking to pdq at a boat show and...

we have the 75 hp and 3 blades. we generally cruise at 13.5 knots which equates to 3350 rpm. at this speed we have averaged 2.4 nautical mpg for 15 years. included in this number is idling into and out of harbors, docking, etc. based on 125 usable gals this would give 300 nm range.

hi,

if you search on this topic you'll see my original question (fuel warning light). may or may not be the same thing.

hi, a long time ago (circa 2006 or 2007) we had the warning light go on intermittently. i spoke to pdq and they said that yanmar had problems with the filter mounted on the engine. it was mounted on a rubber grommet but still was sensitive to the amount of tightening. i decided to move the filter to...

While researching my sliding door leak (posted "Sliding Door Leak ...") I figured it was time to replace door rollers and weather stripping. I ordered the parts Kent and Alan provided from Bomar. While I was waiting for the parts I noticed a reference to sliders, top and bottom. I called Bomar and w...

Hi all, We’ve had a chronic leak just below the sliding door. In the past we just put rags on the ledge when it rained and, well, we lived with it. This winter we had some refinishing in the driving area and when we were home for Christmas we got a call from the floor guy who said he couldn't go ahe...

thinwater,

it's amazing how popular they are given the cost.

hi nick,

we've gone to bahamas more than a dozen times with 2 bikes (folding in bags) on the back seat. we just use some 1/4" line secured to arm rest, back rail, and seat itself. definitely out of the way.

hi,

we have used napa 1334 filters for over 10 years. never had a problem.

i think that you're good to go!

hi, combiner should be green even when shore power/charger is working. the combiner has a switch which puts it in disconnect mode. i would check that. if that is in correct position, there are rotary dials on the left facing the combiner. these control shutoff voltage amongst other things. make sure...

kent you're the best!

thanks alan

hi all, we have a leak on the port side of the sliding door. it is coming down the inside face of the door just below the lock mechanism. it is getting onto the inside face getting past the black "fuzzy" weather strip. has anyone replaced the weather strip? if so, where did you get it (name/make)? w...
