I have found a broken weld on one of my lifeline stanchions. Can it be welded? Does anyone have a scheafer one piece stanchion I can buy? Or maybe two so I can make a boarding gate? I have a '77 - 30'er. The diesel gauge is on top of my tank. It can only be read from the starboard sail locker while standing on my head. Is this the same on all mid 70s hunters? has anyone ever turned the gauge around to be read from the pilot berth access hatch? Has anyone installed any gauges [oil, water, amp, fuel] ?
A few questions

and, carry it in
You'll save a lot if you take the stanchion in to the shop yourself. And, according to earlier posts, you can also save by finding a regular welding shop that is qualified to do stainless, but doesn't label it "marine."

Standing on your head is good
It forces lots of blood into your brain before going out for a sail. Aids the thought process. The mechanical original guage on the tank of my '83 33 is much the same. The one good thing I can say about it is that it is dead accurate. Unlike the electric Teleflex guage and sender I installed. The good news is with as little fuel as these diesels use, you don't have to check it often.

Mechanical water gauge
Engine overheating is one of the more common problems in running an engine. A simple mechanical water gauge can be found at the local auto parts store to monitor engine temperature. This gauge is easy to install and is much better than the Yanmar idiot light.
