Aesthetic is subjective of course, but imho external look ain't exactly their strongest point, and never has been. Which I suspect is part of the...
I would think that the inlet air velocity should be higher in the center, simply due to lack of drag. I'm not sure that the comparison with...
Doh! I didn't notice that, sorry.
Which models are you referring to, a Superhawk 48 and a Predator 56? If so, and if a few inches are critical for your cruising habits, I'd be more...
What is broken exactly? Those trim tabs are the so-called "K-planes" from Mercury Racing, and they are typically fitted in boats even faster than...
Yep, far from saying that they only come from Italy. But I'm almost sure they do in an Apreamare - that's all I meant.
Very unlikely. As I said, I can't be positive on what brand they used, but I'd be extremely surprised if it weren't an Italian one.
Do you mean that you have the key, and just can't find a blank to cut based on the original one? In any case, I'm afraid there are several...
Yeah, but on a DD powered 44' Viking, I'd expect the "micro bit faster" estimated by CR to be closer to the reality... :D Back to the OP...
"Autoclave" is the IT for fresh water pump. Happy to help with anything else you might be be unsure of.
Interesting to read such comment from someone who obviously knows SFs much better than myself. Over the years, I had that very same impression in...
Lacking any towing assistance, they could have deployed the tender, bringing with it the anchors as far as possible in the direction of deeper...
Agreed. I was referring to fuel alone, which is a concern only for those who underestimate (or are even unaware of) all the other TCO components.
I'd rather say that newcomers thinking of buying are more scared than owners, 'cause anyone with some previous boating experience isn't so scared...
I can't actually be positive on that, but yes, AFAIK Baudouin is only focused on marine applications. Another manufacturer I can think of, whose...
Yep, entertaining indeed. I was wondering if the flat earth theories or the chemtrail poisoning would have been next. :D I don't think KRS posts...
KRS, this coming season I will be enjoying my 14th year of becoming sea-based 24/7, so I have a bit of first hand experience on that - with just...
Ok, that's two builders (Azi/Ben is actually the same group) out of about two hundreds. Not exactly a statistically significant sample, in my...
I defined the E-type design "gorgeous" in my previous post, and I have utmost respect for it. But at risk of coming across as a fanboy of anything...
LOL, I didn't say "some other forumites would agree" for nothing! I'll tell you what, why don't you name those that in your opinion don't?
