Hi, new member here hoping to get some advice from actual owners. I am looking at a 1995 29 open. Spoke with the seller and I was told on a previous survey moisture was found on both hull sides and deck . Should I run away? or hire my own surveyor and see just how bad it is? Also any other problem areas i should look for shopping around. Thanks in advance.

The keep pump on my 52 Sovran Salon comes on after running for approximately 1 hour even on calm days. I have to stop for a few minutes to let the keel pump work until it shuts off.  Then repeat an hour later. I checked for possible sources. My forward, mid, aft and davit bilges are all dry. I resealed my swim platform, no water is entering the shell and running down to the keel. No water is entering the engine room air intakes. All interior stringers under the intakes are dry. My only thought is can water be entering the small exterior cockpit drain holes on the underside of the swim platform side moldings. They are in the water stream while running. Has anyone experienced this issue? Thanks.

    [attachment=1543][attachment=1543]When I purchased my 2007 3600 Open the rearward facing cockpit seat cushion back was missing because the previous owner had mounted a hard shell life raft where the seat was mounted. I am having a new seat back cushion made, but I am looking for the brackets to mount it where the original was which is a slide on cushion where two brackets slide into each other. This allows the cushion to be centered left to right once installed. The combing cushion on the transom door has the same brackets. 
   I have emailed Tiara and awaiting their response next week, but I thought I would check here to see if anyone else has seen them for sale anywhere.

have a blue hull, original owner had it painted dark blue, was white when left factory, cannot find the exact blue to do sum minor repairs, have tried 2 different fiberglass guys and they cant match the paint, when the sun hits it you can really tell , so thinking about either wrapping the boat this fall or get the hull from rub rail down painted, anyone have a clue how much it would cost to get painted? the wraps i have seen look great , just wondering on the resale if i have a boat wrapped? thanks in advance.

Hello, I just joined the club. I recently sold my Meridian 411 and am now looking for a Tiara in the 33-38 foot range. I appreciate the opportunity to connect with other members in the club and look forward to meeting you on line.  Cheers,  Frank and Wendy Berke, Sidney, British Columbia, Canada.

My A/C water pump will not run. The A/C unit starts and runs but then returns error "HHH", as there's no water is flowing. 
Does anyone know if there is a breaker for this pump?  Or life span of a water pump? 
Work fine last summer, just trying to understand why pump will not start or if I just need to replace.
Thanks
