I can just imagine MTU or any other diesel manufacturer advising 'Don't subject to cold temperatures'.:(
You won't do that with this. But with a stop in Cape May or A.C. you should be good.
Without looking back in my logs you should safely make about 200nm at cruise speed on a tank. I brought a 42 down from Boston one year. We hit a...
Having run the N/S-S/N route over 100 times you're making too big a deal out of it. I've touched bottom twice in all those times. Once with the...
Welcome to the dark side.:cool: Nothing bad to say about sail boaters. Yep the Sea Ray will be a lot easier to board and get around on. It's...
Thankfully you generally lose cell coverage about 10 miles offshore.

It would make absolute sense given the circumstances. In fact it would make sense for everyone to do but I've never heard of it happening. I...

My guess would be not torqueing down the bolts properly.
The after market spec is more use specific. So you're comparing apples to oranges. The diesel manufacturer makes a motor that might be used in a...
Depending how old your boat and props are you could see some benefit from tuning your props as there's been a lot of improvement in that over the...
West Marine is your friend on both.
