Feel free, if comparing the mighty US of A with a Country as large as Arizona makes you feel better. As well as you are free to vote again for...
I wasn't aware of that, but it makes sense, from what can be seen in the above photos. And is consistent with my memories of the Northern Marine...
Why, can you provide scientific evidence that this isn't going to be even worse? The only thing we are sure of is that there's much more that we...
It can and does happen also with much smaller boats. Not sure if the reasons are similar, but based on the above photos alone, the accident in...
Positively +1! I'm well aware that running WOT for a meaningful amount of time is part of these tests, but 1.5 hours sounds indeed OTT. Btw,...
Agreed, but that should be included in the normal process, as far as I know. I mean, the warranty validation of marine engines on newly built...
I get that, and I'm aware that the durability of Cat aftercoolers is nowadays much worse than it used to be. I was just saying that if it were a...
That's also true of MANs, though. My guess is that it has more to see with being designed to require anodes (as opposed to MANs that don't). And...
Far from focusing on that. If anything, the opposite. I only asked what the OD of the barb hose is, because from that follows the ID of the pipe...
Based on the title, I opened the thread in the hope to read something interesting about a turbine powered boat.... :D
Not in my understanding, DM. In nautical applications, whenever an X" diameter seacock, valves or pipes is specified, it's normally referred to...
If you are aware of such instrument/method, tell me more about it, because I've never seen any load numbers for mechanical engines. Even the...
Nope, and this is the reason why I was positive that you had different engines in mind. Their first CR engine rated for 800hp was the inline 6,...
Sorry Beau if I previously missed that point. But if that additional thickness is indeed part of the mould, it's a mistake to consider it as the...
I'm not saying that your numbers aren't correct, CJ - and the same goes for OB's numbers. What I'm saying is that they can't be related to the...
Below is a photo taken from the ad of the only 1998 Post 50' which I found on YW. I highlighted in yellow and circled in red what, as I...
Folks, I'm afraid you are talking of different engines. Afaik, the Rivarama is R6/800 powered, which is a completely different animal (6 inline...
Happy to hear that you are progressing as expected. I can't wait to read about the seatrial results! CuNi for raw water pipes is a great choice,...
Beau, I am linking below a cockpit photo taken from the ad that CJ linked. If your boat is like that, I can't see any additional GRP covering...
This is very puzzling ideed. In principle, in a properly designed electrical panel, in between the main breaker and each line-specific breaker...
