Hi Ron, Teamwork's engine scoops faces fwd, and the A/C faces aft. Roger

James, thanks so much, I was dreading removing a window that doesn't leak. James to the rescue again!!!
are you going to make it to the Islands this year? Roger on Teamwork

Has anybody changed the sliding window pull handle? It looks to me that the window may have to come out. Please say it ain't so !!! Roger on Teamwork

Thanks, the Bomar part #, and the price was just as you said!!! The folks were really nice, but I don't think they are still making them any more. Now that I have them in hand, how do you install them? Looks like the window will have to be removed!! Hope not, any help will be appreciated. Roger on T...

Hey Stray Cat, my compass is in the aft seat stbd side of the dinette. I can't change to where yours is, as I have a central vacuum under center seat. Still more than 3' from compass. I wish the GPS compasses would come down in price soon. Roger on Teamwork.

Has anybody had to move the fluxgate compass on a powercat? I can't get less than 15 degrees deviation, and it needs to be boxed/swung fairly often. I don't have any motors or tools within 3.5' of the compass. I have an inverter, and a 100amp battery charger under the lower helm, but all is over 3' ...

Chet, an expert at changing them is Josh Roberts 910-620-3212. He will order from Mack Boring, and discount some. I have one used, that looks good as the new one, and one that can be repaired. Josh lives in Wilmington, NC. Roger Comer Teamwork

I installed the shades from Lowes today, and used the brackets that came with them. No problem, even for a one armed man!! They look good, all that is left is to buy some industrial velcro for the bottom.
Thanks all for the good info. Roger C.

Hey Tom, thanks for the good ideas. I plan to fasten the shades right to the fiberglass over hanging the windows, plenty of room for screws above, didn't quite understand the use of plywood. Thanks again, Roger C.

John, not in engine, outside all over trans etc. Roger

John, I thought you would be back to me. The leak is on the pipe that connects to the turbo, there won't be any question when it starts leaking, water will be in your engine bilge and all over the trans cooler, transmission, engine, and motor mounts. James said he had one welded, ss should be OK, bu...

Hey Tom...is there any way you could send us a picture? our email is teamwork2comer@gmail.com thanks...Mary

Has anybody replaced their exhaust elbows on 100 hp. engines? I have one [port] leaking badly, and have read so much on how cheaply made the Yanmar elbows are made, I wondered if there was a good aftermarket one. When they leak, you will have raw/salt water all over the aft end of your engine!!! I g...

Has ANYone figured out how to 'attractively' cover the PDQ front windows? I'm personally going nuts. I have tried sewing same shape covers & applying with velcro but eventually they sagged. I have tried tie back curtains, but my husband says even when tied back they impede his view for operating...

What about making them a little wider, especially on the inboard side of each hull??? Roger Comer, Teamwork
