Re: Stus-List Fw: Strut

I did the samething to Pegasus. Pulled the strut, cleaned the hull, rebedded using 5200 I think, reinstalled using new hardware, doubled up fender washers and double nutted the bolts. No leaks or loose bolts 4 years later. Doug Mountjoy Pegasus LF38 #4 On Monday, November 21, 2016, Tom Alessi via

Re: Stus-List Battery Charger / ACR -- Some Details

To the best of my knowledge a 12v battery charger should not go over 14.6 or so. If it is goig to 15 to 16 volts I would be getting a new charger. A friend had this happen with a mastervolt unit and fried his house bank of 2 T105 6v. Doug Mountjoy SvPegasus LF38 #4 On Friday, November 11, 2016,

Re: Stus-List A4 Slips Out of Gear

Michael, All ATF is wet clutch friendly, automatic transmissions all have wet clutches and bands. Not all wet clutch/band material is ATF friendly. Paragon and motorcycles use engine oil. Due to the fact that their clutch material is designed for use in motor oil not ATF. On the same thought

Re: Stus-List Starting Problem

I would suggest checking for power (12v) at the small wire on the solenoid with the ignition switch in the start position. This will tell you if the switch and wiring is ok. Use a test light if you have one. The test light will put a small load on the circuit, where as a volt meter will not.

Re: Stus-List paragon v-drive transmission

Jason, I have the same transmission/ V-drive on Pegasus. The Paragon is very simply designed to be held in reverse. The V-drive is made by Walter. If you notice that on the side of the transmission is a large lever, I was told by a local expert that it was designed to be held in reverse by

Re: Stus-List Cruising chute tack

Chuck, On Pegasus I use a short length of spectra with metal thimbles, and a block attached to the bow roller. Some times I also use a ATN tacker around the head sail. The tack line runs aft to the cockpit as are all most all of my lines are. Doug Mountjoy sv Pegasus LF38 hull #4 Ballard WA.

Re: Stus-List Fuel contamination

I would carry extra filters, and fill with fresh fuel. Pegasus sat for a couple of years when I bought her. I didn't have any issues with the fuel until I got into rough water, and stired up the fuel. Now I change the filters once a year and have no issues. Doug Mountjoy sv Pegasus LF38 Just west

Re: Stus-List SOS light flare replacement

It looks great for inland waters. However for out in the ocean I feel that you still need flares for the altitude that they provide. You cant get the light 500 feet in the air. or shoot it at the bridge of an approaching freighter. That being said I can still see it usefulness. Doug Mountjoy

Re: Stus-List 2 unrelated questions:
