Out of curiosity, is this insurers' requirement also for a Third Party liability coverage, or just for a full coverage inclusive of your own boat?...
Yup, that's the bit I missed at first, while writing my previous post. Sorry about that. But no worries, all clear now, including the angle you're...
Never heard this theory, but it's patently wrong anyway. The water flow under any planing hull, aside obviously from going backward, also goes...
I agree that it's an important factor, but I'm more concerned about the daily headaches, rather than the occasional ones. I mean, keeping the boat...
Well, I guess she already did...
100% Agreed. But as I understood, the OP did not back off from 10 to 4, but went from zero to 4. He just mentioned that 10 is allegedly the...
CR, in fairness towards Belle, it's not like any of the previous comments she's criticizing were very constructive, either. My personal short...
I tend to agree with Pascal that 40' to 50' can be a bit cramped, particularly if as I understand you are thinking to have up to 5 people sleeping...
Can't answer your specific question, but generally speaking 4 degrees is already a lot - let alone 10 deg! Did you experience any vibrations or...
In fairness toward remotes, an helmsmen as clever as that would make me nervous regardless of where he's standing onboard...! :D
Agreed, if and when Mk1 eyeball can actually be used. Pretty hard with an 18 wheeler for instance - as well as with any no-frills boats. Like all...
Do you mean new boats delivered from Poole to Mallorca or whatever? And then sell them with one hundred hours clocked, if not more? I don't think so.
Sounds like a sound case for a rear camera, viewable on a dashboard screen. Inexpensive, and doesn't require fiddling with engine controls, which...
The latter. No room for glowplugs anywhere in MAN engines.
Good to know that at least one 66 did NOT catch fire, phew! o_O
Out of many UK built boats delivered to the Med I'm aware of, only one (a Princess 67, for the records) was actually delivered on her own bottom...
I see that you're in Sweden. Surely freezing temperatures are unusual also up there, at this time of the year, but I have to ask: R U sure the...
It's also a matter of confidence, to a large extent. I can neither see the swim platform from the flybridge nor from the main helm in my boat, but...
Having in mind how ad additional helm station is built, vs. how the YC and its components are, I'm surprised that S/skr don't ask twice whatever...
More than happy to take your word for it. I've only been out on fishing boats in a few occasions, and I'm pretty sure that the (professional)...
