According to the United Yacht brokerage ad, she's actually in Stuart. In fact, the photos were taken exactly here, though obviously I have no idea...
Fwiw, my previous boat was powered by twin 350hp 3116 engines. Not the most brilliant engine ever built by Cat by any stretch of imagination, BUT...
Yeah, I'm not showing the photos of the galley relocation to my wife because I fear that she could ask me to do the same in our boat. Looks like a...
Sorry, I meant to say but I forgot: I don't think the cutlass bearing of the Azi 62 (or any other Azi model for that matter) have any peculiarity,...
Sorry if I gave the impression that blistering and sandwich construction are somewhat related, because they aren't. The problem of sandwich...
The reply from olderboater is based on the fact that you are not going to hear a lot of appreciation for Azimut in general, in this forum. As I...
LOL, it's rather that Greek MAN dealer whose website shows those numbers which is a bit crazy, methinks... :) They must have made a cut and paste...
That's not correct, F42. The stroke has always been 142 mm, for V engines. It's true that the D2866 had a 155mm stroke, which in your D2876 was...
I see your point ref. main bearings in principle, but output also depends on manufacturers' choices, to a large extent. At this size, Cat and...
I wish I knew the answer to your question, because those engines are exactly the ones running my own boat. 2004 vintage, about 16 hundreds hours...
Out of idle curiosity, which type of crew boats are you talking about? I'm asking because 'crew boat' makes me think of something fast-ish, and if...
Positively +1 to all of that. The forces at play in a 100 tons steel trawler moving at 8 knots vs. a floating town (whose mass was more than a...
Funny you should mention her, J. Not sure if you remember, but during my stay in another boat (the MS75 which I think you know) from which I took...
Far from pretending to answer on behalf of NY Cap, but my understanding of what he meant is simply more weight=more fuel. Which is somewhat true...
In that respect, the Dashew's FPBs are even better. Different strokes for different folks, as always with boats....
I did some math, actually. That's why I checked the Cat specs for the C-18, according to which two of them should burn 57 GPH at 1800 rpm, not 67....
+1, and not only for Zopilote (now called Holiday, as I recall). Here's another couple of almost sisterships, as spotted by truly yours. The...
I can't be positive on current Irish-specific rules, if any. But I did deal with an Irish broker, a dozen of years ago. Back then, he was happy to...
Interesting. Multi-voltage battery banks aren't actually that common, among EU builders. Wherever 12V-only components are present in an all-24V...
Well, in this case forget what I said! :) Out of curiosity, is that a standard Donzi setup? I never came across a boat with 24V DC for engines...
