In my first reply I didn't notice that you were talking of a longitudinal listing. If it's something that you are considering to cure with 1500lbs...
Blimey, the SF boat in your avatar is MUCH heavier than I would have thought! :D Jokes aside, any tips about ballast placement and best way to...
Actually I did, and commented on it - see post #11. That was before seeing the photos, anyhow. Do you still think that's a likely reason? I don't.
Looks like you have some kind of lip seal, working directly around the rudder shaft surface, which appears to be a bit corroded. So, to answer...
Well, if you aren't a troll, you surely must appreciate why a question like this can come across as such. I'll bite anyway, and try a serious...
FWIW, I also agree that what cleanslate and CJ suggest is a realistic possibility. In fact, that's exactly what I already envisaged some days ago...
"Asset", "stress free", "boat ownership": You managed to fit a triple oxymoron in a short sentence! :D
I never came across those pages. Do you possibly have the reference code of the document (usually shown in the very last page, near "Printed in...
Good to hear that you managed to solve the problem, annoying as it surely was, very quickly and effectively. Well done! Did you possibly ask the...
V8/800hp are precisely what I have on my boat. Pretty similar to the V12 which are the subject of this thread, in every ways aside obviously from...
Hi J, nice to see you around here. Must admit to have been a bit radical in my previous post. Some anchorages are lovely also in SoF, even if...
FWIW, they are among the more popular in EU, together with Tides Marine. Both very good products. The ones I previously mentioned (Fluiten) are...
Inline 6 or V8? Just curious.
Of course I also have no clue about whether just some manual shaft turn is acceptable or not, 'cause as I said I never heard of this requirement...
Not exactly a spring chicken, but a very solid engine. At 1200hp, it went down to history as their most powerful fully mechanical V12. But the...
Am I the only one surprised to hear that? Actually Lasdrop seals are unknown here in Europe, but I never heard of such requirement also on any...
Feel free to insist till the cows come home with your speculations about my experience, or lack of it. You will never hear me claiming for how...
Aaaaah... ...The old "I've seen it all so I know better than anyone else" line. C'mon, you can do better than clutching at straws like that. If...
Just briefly, to avoid derailing the thread further - well, hopefully, at least: Correct. I thought it was clear, also because I specifically...
Agreed, but IIRC the engines were bought as a pair. A milling bad enough to rust the whole seal on one side and none at all on the other would be...
