I'm not familiar enough with these engines to tell for sure, but is that even possible? Most diesels I came across would hit the high idle...
Now, that's a blast from the past! :) The GTV particularly, back in its days, is a car I would have loved to be able to afford. I still have in my...
Pascal, don't take this personally. And I'm well aware that you will think I'm biased because I'm Italian. BUT, this sweeping generalization of...
Great idea, thanks for sharing it. I might even copy it in fact, if you didn't patent it! :)
As I said in the original post, I've only used that "Y" connection in some marinas, and based on basic observation rather than any calculation....
I've only just seen this thread now. Nice vessel, but it made me sad to see in this video (docked right behind her) an even more remarkable...
Do you really think so? Ever heard the French expression "c'est le ton qui fait la musique"?
Why, is there any comparable US built boat that you would have recommended to the OP as an alternative? Possibly one where all the above bits...
Good suggestions from Pascal, right on the money vs. the original OP question. Personally, I'd rather want electrical diagrams regardless of where...
I was wondering the same, because BTW both Nordhavns and Flemings are also built in Taiwan - when not in mainland China, as it happens for many...
It appears that as I'm writing there are no less than nine tugs on the scene, the largest being a 67m AHTS. Plus a couple of German CG 80m...
Bingo. That's what would concern me the most, in general. Even more than the oil analysis and all other particular defects, none of which are...
Let's say you do, and you get those 2 knots max back. That's what, 1 knot at cruising speed? Probably less. I wouldn't lose any sleep over that,...
I'm aware of fins creating some problems like "fishtailing" on a straight course, to the point of needing to relocate them, but I never heard of...
I believe the version Dockmaster suggested to steer clear of is the 435hp. If properly maintained, the 375 are solid enough, instead. Out of...
Yup, plenty of them, also among the European ones, but mostly in the period between the late 90s and the mid noughties. In fact, it wasn't...
I would have thought that this well known "milking" problem, as it was called, had already been sorted by then. How long did it take for it to...
In which year was your boat built, if you don't mind me asking?
Not to my knowledge, but even if there were any, it's not something I would want to have in my boat. Exhaust systems are critical in any boat, and...
Yes, it is very close, and I didn't say it isn't. But what the rule defines is the maximum hull speed, and my point was that the most efficient...
