What 68' Hatteras? Sportfish, motoryacht? What year range are you looking at, because 68' does not ring a bell with me at all and I've run tons...
I have seen additives such as those from Diesel Kleen help considerably on boats that seldom move. That being said, I've managed 10+ yachts at...
I believe those Attwood lights are going to project a narrow beam more like headlights or a flashlight and not what you're looking for. Try...
Yeah, it's a good idea so you don't get condensation in the fuel tank.
I would replace the fuel filters annually. Turn off the fuel for the winter? It's real easy to shut a few valves so you might as well.
No I think he wants the ones that mount on a flat surface (not recessed). I know what you're looking for but don't know who makes them. Call...
They are expensive, like $80 each and if I remember correctly each motor takes 2. Buy your oil filters from MTU as well if not just for piece of...

That's if you have enough battery power by the time you find out the shorepower has been lost to start it. If it will even start when it's so...
You're going to want a dedicated breaker and wiring for the DC pump, also install shutoff valves before and after each pump would be a good idea...
He's looking to BUY a computer, not issues.
Useless
It the frame and/or trim is wood, you're going to need to razor knife it and put wedges in as you go. Can't use the braided wire without scarring...
What pascal said, stabilizers should be centered when maneuvering as well as in shallow water.
Either commercial razor knives and you whittle away at it carefully while fitting wedges in it as you go, or braided wire with someone on the...
Your boat should have an AC pump, KEEP IT as they are far superior to almost all of the DC pumps. I like the Headhunter pumps and like the Mach V...
