Nope, apparently SL US was told so from Italy, according to post #11. All still subject to actually finding where the thing is, anyhow. My bet...
Far from pretending to know better than the factory, but saying that I would be surprised if they really placed it in the p/house overhead is an...
'Scuse the pedantry, but it's Sanlorenzo (one word), even if often shortened in "SL".
How can anyone in the industry hate boats that create 12 hours of income for such easy jobs? I'd expect anyone but the owners to LOVE the thing!...
I would look carefully under the floor panels of the corridor that goes to the master cabin, and/or of the stbd guest cabin floor. But don't...
Good point, but did you experience slipping only depending on some conditions, like rpm or load? I'm asking because for some occasional checks it...
Either I'm not understanding what you mean, or I'm missing something. Let's take a typical gearbox like the one below. It's directly coupled to...
I didn't say that the C32 aren't solid, but pretty sure if there's one thing that Cat didn't improve in them vs. the good old 3412, that's...
Guilty as charged for using the wrong term, indeed the pulley is what I had in mind when I wrote flywheel. In fact, my comment about being...
Engines requiring to be rebuilt at less than 2000 hours makes it hard to argue with anyone suggesting to stay away...:confused:
Good suggestion. But unless hard to "see", due to how the engines are installed and how much space there is around them, I'd rather put the tape...
Sorry Judy, can't help with your inquiry, but you made me curious, 'cause I don't think there are many 63' steel trawlers around with Thrustmaster...
Makes me wonder what they would say if that valve were electrical. After all, when closed, it's exactly as closed as a manual one! :)
I see, but boarding aside, does that mean YOU must pull the fridge every time you need to empty the tank? Possibly better than going down inside a...
Positively +1, that's downright silly - if not even dangerous, inside a hot engine room. No idea about what US-specific requirements are (if...
Yes, that's the boat I was referring to. A davit for handling the anchor? Now, that's an idea that I'm not surprised to have never seen in any...
I've only just seen this thread now that it has been revamped. Very nice vessel, that Minnow in post #381. But I can see neither an anchor nor any...
My post wasn't meant to support the logic of the regulations - I did say that emissions of these boats are obviously irrelevant in the global...
R U sure? In Europe, AFAIK the 550 comes with MANs i6/800hp, and it's a 31+ kts wot/25 kts cruise boat. Nothing against the Cummins (which in fact...
The 24m LLL limit above which a proper license becomes mandatory is pretty much a (UK-driven) European thing, I believe. That's the reason why all...
