Westerbeke/Universal Service Bulletin #213
April 13, 1994

Reports have been received from the field from Universal propulsion engine owners concerning the starter motor on their Universal engine not activating when the start button in the instrument panel is depressed. A clicking noise only is produced by the solenoid on the starter.

Investigation has found that this is the result of a voltage loss at the "S" terminal on the starter solenoid. Voltage is supplied to the starter solenoid when the starter button in the instrument panel is depressed.

Catalina Yachts Engineering Bulletin #15
April 8, 1983

It has come to our attention that the lazzarette bulkhead in some Catalina 36's may not be properly fastened to the deck. Improper fastening may allow the bulkhead to flex when the rudder is turned hard to port or starboard and the stop post on the radial wheel contacts the stopper blocks bonded to the deck.
