My neighbor has one of the last 45s, and I noticed his platform lift has a factory installed reinforcement welded onto the stainless support. When I checked my lift, I noticed the welds were cracked where the reinforcement was added
I am looking to install the disk type BBQ mount on the back of the boat (factory option). I searched, but can't find the manufacturer. Does anyone know where to get it?
As a result of a misunderstanding (long story), I purchased a brand new complete OEM Formula Ameritex Taylor Made canvas in black for the 2012 and later 45 Yacht that I do not need. This has never been installed. It comes with the snaps, and since the top has not been installed, the snaps have...
Formula seems to have a few different mounting options for the satellite antenna on boats with FLIR. I have the low version currently, and have very poor signal.
I am assuming the higher style mount is the solution for better signal. Does anyone know who manufactures that style?
TIA,

The 80 Amp charger seems to be over charging my AGM house batteries. I noticed a distinct smell which I traced to the steaming, gurgling and hot AGMs. Charger going at 50 amps with all consumers off.
Has anyone had this issue?
Quick question about 2004 34 PC. My outdrives tilt up and down with the switches on the dash. But the toggle on the throttles only tilts up.
Is that normal for an '04?
TIA
The trim tabs on my 34 PC were painted with bottom paint. Last season, all of the paint just peeled off mostly in one piece.
I noticed the 31 PC on land next to me had the same issue.
Question: Do I need to paint the tabs at all? There wasn't really much growth on the tabs. If so, what paint...
Another battery thread ...
I have one year old Deka Group 31 batteries. How long do your batteries last on the hook after a day or more off shore power?
How often do you have to run the generator and for how long?
I can bearly get 10 hours and that's being ultra conservative.
TIA
I need to replace the gas spring on the bar sink (04 34 pc). The original part is made by Attwood but I can't read the model number and spec. Does anyone know what the correct replacement part is?

Without going into the embarrassing details, I need to replace one of the latches for the front Bomar hatch (2005 34 PC).
Anyone know where to buy them?
Unlike years past, the exhaust port for my genny is forming a rusty streak on the hull. I have cleaned it several times, but it keeps reappearing without even running the genny. The anode is fine.
Do others have this?
The flat screen TV has a 12 volt supply. My buddy can operate the TV on his Sea Ray without starting the generator (yes, I do hang out with non-Formula boats). Is there any reason I can't rewire the TV to run off the batteries?
I am looking to add some electronics and would like to add a few of the factory looking ETA circuit breakers. Has anyone found a place to buy them? Google has let me down so far.
