In this case, I would agree with C J. Nothing wrong with a fully open layout per se, mind. At that size, here in the Med I would say that it's a...
LOL, and you asked ME in another thread why I don't like IPS?!? :D
I see your cold NY pizza and raise you a pizza served straight out of the oven at Sorbillo in Naples. If you think it's worth living for the...
Anyone ordering such junk doesn't have the faintest clue about how a proper pizza looks like. I would have told that his cholesterol is too high...
Are you talking of 2 different boats? There's a helluva difference between the 900 and the 1200. Even if both V8, in the latter they redesigned...
The Sleipner website does have a fins stabs section (click). And it seems to be working just fine, but there's no mention of any electrical...
Boatpoor, aside from being wrong also from a theoretical viewpoint (as leeky already mentioned), I assume that you never went snorkeling around a...
Since you insist, I'm against them because I think they are a real move fwd only for two categories of people: Those who build and sell them, and...
Doh! Are you sure I'm the one who's moving the goalpost?!? The engines were just meant as an analogy, and now you throw in also pods, out of the...
Generic question, generic answer: Quality-wise, historically Ferretti has always been fairly superior to Azimut. BUT, in the vintage range you are...
Do they? Since you mentioned curved fins - those which IIRC they call "vector" - I assumed fully hydraulic because they are the only ones I'm...

Fair enough, I have no problem to take your word for it.
Running hoses might actually be more or less complicated depending on each boat, presence or not of w/tight compartments, etc. But I agree that...
Listen, let's get rid of the class concept, whatever that means. I only used it in reference to your "best in class" claim for the Predator 64 - a...
No need to worry about the "new model" claim. CMC was the very first among builders of fin stabs to develop a fully electrical system, more than...
Recommending sidepower fins is well and good generally speaking, because it's a good product. But to someone who is looking for a retrofit, and...
Mmm... Didn't he, when he identified the Pred 64 as best in class to someone who only mentioned the 50 and 57 - and threw also Princess into the...
Maybe so, if compared only with the other previously mentioned models. But if we consider as "class" the type/size of boats, the Predator doesn't...
I am. In fact, The boat from where I'm posting right now was retrofitted with them. Generally speaking, they work as well as anything hydraulic if...
