    Jim-

    What I have done in the past for manuals is to find a user's group, in your case for Gulfstar 41s. Ask other owner's in the group if they have one to spare or if they would copy it and mail it to you, provided you pay the copy cost and shipping. I have also emailed owners who are selling the boat and asked the same of them... Another good way is to contact some boat dealers/brokers that use to sell Gulfstars or still do...sometimes they have a few old ones sitting around.

    I am not clear on what your second question is asking. There are many ways you can connect shore water to internal water, but if you don't have a pressure regulator make sure you at least put a hose connection inline that you can adjust the incoming flow volume.

    Thanks for the great suggestions, recommnedations (and avoidance advice) so far....

    1) Any hints on how I can find the/any manual(s) for my 1973 Gulfstar 41' ketch? I've tried google and ebay with n oluck....

    2) tips (plus or minus) on connecting shore water to internal water- where, non-return valves, pressure regulator....
