Nauticat 33 Users Manual and or Engine Service Manual around 1987

[Anonymous]

Good Morning Gentleman/Ladies

I have just joined your association 🙂 and I am due to be picking up my boat (my first boat) which is a N33 1987 from Heiligenhafen Germany on 31/7/13……5 days time I feel like a kid a christmas lol.

Does any one have a users manual and or a engine manual for around this period?

Thank you for your assistance.

Hi Ben
What engine do you have ? I have Ford Lehman 90 ( it’s a Ford Dorset marinised) lots of manuals available on the internet, Lancing Marine are very helpful, spares available from ASAP supplies ( gaskets impellers filters etc, delivered next day if you order early,
If this is your first boat, change the fuel filters, oil filters, oil in both engine and gearbox ( Shell Rimula for engine and ATF for gearbox and the impeller if it’s been lying for a while. Anodes in heat exchanger and refill with 50/50 antifreeze and water. Do that and you should be good to go, have a good trip

Hi, I don’t yet own a N.C. 33. My enquires are in the investigation stages prior to deciding on a motorsailer.

Graham’s advice is bang on. I would also descale the raw water heat exchangers and check that none of the rubber hoses have not gone hard. This is not difficult but you may want to get a mechanic to do it for you. The descaler you want is called Rydlyme, you can read up on the net.
