Why some numbers should be comparable or not based on how they are calculated, when the logic is exactly the same, that is beyond my...
I've got two sight gauges, one on each of the side tanks, and when I mentioned the 27.5 liters/cm I meant one centimeter on both sight gauges....
Well if you feel you NEED that, don't consider my posts. My point exactly. But as I said, if you don't trust my comments, just ignore them. It's...
Nope, I should retrofit flow sensors for real time measurement. Doable, but not worth the hassle/cost. OTOH, I've got calibrated and very accurate...
I think you're largely overestimating the possible effect of the different environment, even if you add the more salty water to the other elements...
I've been saying that for decades, so I should be burned down to the ground by now. On the E side of the Pond, in the UK for instance no...
There can be several reasons for the delayed RINA registration. A typical one is when the boat is kept by the builder as a demo boat, with a...
Well, that's a rather classic open design. I guess you could say she's also similar to some Italcraft and Sarnico (the earlier ones, before they...
Glad to have helped. She looks in great shape for her age - fenders aside, hoping you don't mind me pointing that out... :) Early 90s, I suppose?...
'Course my 56' is slower, with the same power pushing twice the weight! She does 29 kts at 2100rpm, but even at that speed, she still doesn't burn...
Hi there, and welcome to YF. I'm afraid you will struggle to find any details on Palanca, because even among Italians (as myself), it's not a well...
Why, do you think it's normal that a 40 footer, weighing about half of a 56' with a similar powerplant, has a comparable fuel burn?!? :confused:...
I wouldn't fancy running those engines all day at 2100, but I guess that's a choice driven by the usual builder+magazine wish to report the...
THIS THREAD WAS SPLIT FROM ANOTHER DISCUSSION 2 different boats can perform TOTALLY differently even same size/type/displacement due to hull...
Do they use two completely different moulds for those Cabos? That's the point with pods, a hull can be either optimized for them or for shafts,...
Does it say this? If so, It seems to me that they don't put their money where their mouth is. Aside from being personally aware of builders who...
Not sure of what other posts you are referring to as "bad" towards Arnesons, but FWIW my previous somewhat negative comments were referred to much...
More details are available in their website, of which there's also the EN version. And according to which, Maritime Diesel Electric in Tamarac is...
I'm not sure if/how easily you can find them in the US, but these folks build some bulletproof diaphragm pump for nautical applications. Short of...
Why, haven't you ever seen a diaphragm pump capable of 2000 gph? When I suggested to replace the Rule with one of those, I meant one of that type,...
