Actually these are not 4x4s but … 6x6s! these guys have worked on 92s and I m sure 71s too. And yes every part gets cleaned with clean shop...
All the heads are torqued. First specified torque plus a quarter turn with a LONG wrench. Or 2 quarter turns… I forgot which. Good thing I only...
Indeed this engine room is pleasure to be in. Having suffered for years in smaller boats i really enjoy it :). re 16V396s I was talking to the...
I looked at extended warranties 6 years ago for the C32s of the 84 I ran. Ridiculously expensive. We put 2000+ hours on them in 5 years, trouble...

As I mentioned before, we had an issue with the TNT platform on the lazzara 110 I started running last year. When running at 10-13 kts, the prop...
Could it be a band aid to help minimize bow rise while getting on plane? But then that’s what the trim tabs are there for anyway. Looking at...
