If you think that you'll have other occasions to tackle similar jobs in the future, you might consider a Fein oscillating multi-tool. You'd never...
Thanks again, I always appreciate views based on first hand experiences. Party and hully gully style is precisely NOT our type of cruise, hence...
Many thanks HTM09 for your very interesting insight on a peculiar and intriguing type of navigation, together with the vessels designed for it. My...
Based also on some reconstructions of the accidents that were published in the meantime, I don't think there's a lot that the Resolute Captain did...
All of their pre-common rail D28XX engines. But in the meantime I got hold also of a much newer installation manual, specifically meant for CR...
If that's how Industry would read the diagram, well, "Industry" would be wrong. In fact, the connections which I highlighted in the previous post...
Actually J, the diagram does show that also the engine must be bonded - see below. And trust me, bonded they always are for good, also in...
Correct. In fact, in the previous (awful) drawing, you can see also the dedicated starting battery. And the domestic grounding should be separate...
Ok, so we are saying exactly the same thing. But don't be mistaken (they usually separate the metals with saltwater in them via O-rings or other...

PB, to my knowledge, MAN engines always relied on a bonding to large external zincs also for the protection of the internal components which must...
I also agree with PB that speed loss can't even be measurable, also because judging from the props and the semi-tunnels that doesn't certainly...
Do you possibly remember if the boats where you noticed that were all powered with engines of the same manufacturer? I can't remember the type of...
Wow. It's not so common to hear of that on a pleasure boat, let alone a plastic one. Sorry if I was teaching you how to suck eggs. Out of...
Not disagreeing with the general principle, but for shafts and rudders, I think your boat is actually more an exception than the norm. Coming to...
Well, I was only wondering because most of the rudder anodes I've seen were further up, much closer to the hull. But to be honest I don't think...
Thanks Carl for your further explanations, though I'm well aware by now of most of what you are saying. And I have no problem at accept all that,...
Fairenuff, I don't mind whether it's the publisher's desire or "ours", whatever that means. The fact remains that when I understand that it's...
See? Q.E.D. Good luck in your and the publisher attempt to keep politics out of here... :D
I struggle with your logic. A debate on the impact of a pandemic disease on the economy is OBVIOUSLY a political matter. Why focusing on the...
