I would NOT repower with 6v92's. There are ways now to get more HP out of the 71;s and I'd long go that route before sticking 6v92's in...
Generally teak decks are simply cleaned every month or two with water and a product (some people even use cascade or ammonia) and a light scrubbing
Yes, that's what it should cost via water delivery. Confirm with yacht shipping companies.

General Fabrics...…..P+R Canvas..... both do excellent work......P+R is used by Hatteras as well as other SF manufacturers.

Check Marine Diesel Specialists in Fort Lauderdale or Scott Marine Power. MDS stocks a lot of MAN stuff.
Try turning the battery switches to the engines off for 10 minutes and then turning them on. Short of that fixing it, you're going to have to...
You might want to look for boats in South Florida and have it shipped by water. South Florida to Victoria is a normal route that most of the...
