No electrical power to Gem at start up Great idea on moving fuse around to front or back for anyone that has the reverse placement on your Onan generator. So for the final recap. If your generator has no power at all going to the control box find the fuse. There will be one eith under the...

Thanks everyone ! Some great thoughts I wish I had been able to be there on the boat during repair. I hate to chase someones work but I am not feeling the we can fix it for more story.

Hi everyone, I have a Onan 8kw MDKD genset that started up and ran just fine untill I had a water pump replaced by a marine service dept. The raw water pump was simply not pulling prime anymore and had reduced water flow so after new Impeller and other checks a new pump was installed. I have...

As someone who just started doing fiberglass projects I wanted to bring to my fellow boaters some observations. Spend the money for good glass fiber, never get the cheap thin stuff that comes apart when cut. Covering everything including you with small fiberglass shards. You will finish faster...

Novatec 55 John, I have a Nova Embassy 44 which is the 1988 smaller version of the Novatec. The build quility of the boat is great in my opinion. The woodwork is top notch and Nova has been building boats for a long time. A lot of interior room without wasted space. Classic styling well woth a...

I am a recent owner of a 1988 Nova Embassy 44. I have found to my amasement that the deck core seems to be a thick foam core. I was a little shocked as I have always been under the assumption I would have Balsa wood or something like that from a Asian built model of that vintage. I know there...

Thanks to all for the ideas. We have cleaned washed moped, rubbed and cleaned again and the odor continues. I will start a line by line review to find the leak this week and post the results for all.

Looking for suggestions. I have a 1988 44 foot aft cabin Nova Embassy with twin 3208 cats. The fuel tanks have been replaced and and it seems that as far back as 2011 fuel was found in the bilges and it was there for quite some time according to surveys I have found on the boat. No fuel leaking...

In am the new owner of an 1988 Nova Embassy Sundeck. As i was checking lower aft compartment i found Balast bars on the Starbord side of the boat. Was this a normal practice for this kind of boat? The previous owner never even opened those hidden spaces he did not know anything about them.
