Sea Frost Engine Refrigeration For Sale- Used
I have a used functional Sea Frost ED System. It was fully functional when removed last August. It was removed because the copper lines were beginning to corrode and had begun leaking.? To install it would need? ? ? 1. a pulley on the engine, ? ? 2.? bracket on front of the engine ? ? ? ? ? ? or? ? ? ? ? ? be attached to the engine room wall.? ? ? ?3. new copper tubing connecting components. ? ? ?4. spare parts for an?existing system. Any reasonable price considered.? I can discuss installation?process and take questions off line. Thanks, Mike Fair Second Wind 362 Padanaram, Buzzards Bay |
Re: 402 head/shower drains
In Sapphire, our shower drains via a pump, which is actuated with a switch in the shower area.? The forward drain, in the head section, drains as you described - via water heater area to the dripless to the bilge. There is a switch on the electrical panel and a second switch just aft of the shower glass separation panel.? No pictures as I am not on board.? But can provide them if needed.

Re: 402 head/shower drains
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýAfter 31 years the Attwood bilge pump in the Attwood shower sump gave up the ghost. Not a problem except Attwood no longer makes a drop in bilge pump that fits. To top it off, they no longer make the shower sump that was installed in my 362. And to add to the joy of boat ownership no one that I can find makes a shower sump box that will fit into the space between the engine and a floor. My solution, a work in progress, is to wall off a section of the bilge and install a small Whale low profile gusher bilge pump and pump it back through the sink drain. Other more pressing projects have superceed this one on the priority list.Dave Second Star S362 #113 Fair Haven, NY/Lake Ontario

Re: 402 head/shower drains
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýOn our 402 the shower drain goes to a strainer with a screen in it then to a pump and into the head sink drain.The pump switch is next to the door for the wet locker in the shower and the strainer and pump are under the head sink. The head area drain drains into the bilge. Michael Wind Walker S402-097 On 3/10/2025 9:09 PM, retbc5 via

Re: 402 head/shower drains
Hello Scott,
On my 402, both of those drains are connected via discharge hose to a pump that draws the water up and into the discharge hose into which the head sink drains (and ultimately to the thru-hull below). The pump is located in the compartment below the sink. The switch for that pump is located in the shower area. I am away from my boat, so I cannot be 100% certain of all the above, but that is my recollection. Sounds like your 402 is either configured differently on purpose or you may just have a disconnected hose situation on your hands.? Richard S/V Zenith? Sabre 402 Marblehead, MA |

Re: 402 head/shower drains
On hull 32 the shower drain goes through a filter then to a pump then out the sink drain. The pump is fused at the main panel and has a switch in the shower. I have no idea where the head compartment drains to. I imagine it finds its way to the keel sump. Both drains are below the water line and would have to be pumped UP to exit a through hull as in the case of my shower drain.?

402 head/shower drains
Hey all. ?New 402 owner here... ?Today, I noticed when water drains from the head or shower floor drain, the water enters the bilge area under the water heater. ?If there is enough water, it travels into the bilge where the dripless is and eventually to the bilge pump. ?Is this normal for a 402 (or any other model?). ?It seems like the drain lines would enter a thru hull just like the sinks. ?Attached is a photo with two white lines marked on it showing the two drain lines and a red line that shows the direction of travel to the bilge pump.
?
Thanks in advance

Re: Tonnage Measurement for Sabre 425
2019, insurers abruptly stopped insuring USA boats, two weeks before our UK policy expired. The solution was a suprisingly easy switch to UK ship registry. It was cheap to do so, the only real expense was to have a surveyor measure Wings, and we also had to have a unique name, so she became Wings' duet. The surveyor reported that our 38MKII is allowed to carry 12.57 tons of grain. That allows us an ample supply for our breakfasts.

Re: 362 PSS and flange replacement
Hello Bil,
?
As noted, I did not have to remove the shaft. ?Once the coupling is removed and the PSS Shaft Seal components are removed, the shaft can slide as far back as far as the rudder, giving you just enough room to get the new Shaft Seal on. ?I¡¯m away this week, but will return by 3/15. ?PM me and I can make arrangements for you to pick up the puller and long bolts.

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýThe yard did mine in 2021 - PSS ( Packless Sealing System ) - 1-1/8" Shaft - 2-1/4" Stern TubeInstalled a new Sigma Drive coupling at the same time.? I don't believe they pulled the shaft all the way out. I am hull #197 On 3/9/2025 5:08 PM, Bill Graves via

Re: Tonnage Measurement for Sabre 425
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýCheck the measurement. The Gross Tonnage is a measure of the boat¡¯s volume. If the boat has an encapsulated keel, then the boat¡¯s draft is used in the calculation, because the ballast is inside the hull. If the keel is external, then it is not part of the boat¡¯s volume and the depth is from the level the keel attaches to the hull to the deck.Any gross tonnage measurement I have seen has been rounded to the nearest whole number, so the measurement does not need to be all that precise.? If the boat was documented in the US, look up the documentation number and you should be able to read the gross tonnage. |

I need this measurement for the 425.? I'm not near my boat at the moment so if someone with a 425 has the measurement it would save me sometime and guess work.? The 425 I have has the 6'10" draft....but how much height sits above that?
