The Groco HF installed on Intuition is about due for another rebuild! Not able to load water in from thru hull again. Thinking of ditching the current toilet and plumbing and installing an Airhead Composting toilet over the winter/spring time after haul out. Anyone installed an Air Head or other Composting Toilet on their PSC 31? I have very good reports on the AIRHEAD from others at my marina. If so, where did you install the fan? Possible to vent into cockpit locker? Anyone use the urine diverter to route urine waste to existing holding tank? I think that would make the system work even better.

Hello - I am in the middle of refurbishing an 88’ PSC31. This boat was a hurricane salvage so lots of projects ahead of us. Just finished up with topsides delamination project. Mast step moisture project next. Has anyone rebuilt their mast step? Interested in know what approach they took. Thanks Jay

This discussion group could use some participation to make it worthwhile… Wondering what projects or tasks others are working on? Daryl

Wondering if anyone has replaced their battery switch (1, 2, BOTH, OFF ) Intuition has a PERKO - located outside the head in the quarter berth area ( probably standard wiring for most PSC 31's). The wiring to the switch goes through the wet locker just aft of the head bulkhead. Appears to possibly go behind some teak trim in the head? Trying to separate the engine and house battery banks completely using a Blue Seas battery switch that in the ON mode routes engine battery to engine and house battery to house DC Panel. It also has a combine mode for emergencies. Daryl s/y Intuition - PSC 31 #54

Greetings, I would like to tackle maintenance on my packing gland on my PSC 31 while she’s on the hard and was curious if others have experience with this and specifically what packing material is recommended? Thanks for your consideration, Lisle

Planning a future upgrade of the Hitachi alternator to provide SMART CHARGING regulation. Wondering what others have done on their PSC 31's. Daryl() S/Y Intuition - PSC 31 #54

Well, don't even know where to start. We returned to sailing a few years ago after a 25 year hiatus with the purchase of our Pacific Seacraft 31. We had gone aboard a 31 at the Annapolis boat show in 1989 as we were giving up sailing secondary to buying a farm (which makes buying a boat seem less crazy!), career, raising family, and much white water paddling. Something had to go and living almost three hours from our boat it was sailing. We had always dreamed of a 31 and so when we were ready to return to sailing the hunt was on. Interlude was most likely the actual boat we were on at the boat show, as her owner had purchased her at the show the year we first went aboard one. It was meant to be! Fast forward a few years and now the past three years post injury and a significant health event has left her sitting at the dock way too much. A boat like her was meant to be sailed, so though a difficult decision it is time to help her find a new owner who will love her like we have. We anticipate putting her on the market in late March after she is back in the water. In the interim we thought it would be wise to put the information out there in case there are others who are ready to have such a craft. She has been well cared for and I will be glad to outline all the care that has been provided. She is at a marina off of the lower Chesapeake Bay. In our humble and clearly prejudiced opinion, the 31's are the best mix of everything we sought in a boat. She will be missed.
