They built a few Ocean 53's with 3408's. I'm pretty sure C18's would fit......They did build some with Man 820's. The one I was familiar with...
They are and people tell me they're good running motors. BUT you can't get any parts for them and you can't get anyone who's knowledgable at...
Soda blasting will be the most even and least evasive to the gelcoat if you use the right media.
The PODS have a lot better grounding systems. Better zinc systems, and different materials........the pods seem to generally do fine in...
I'd go with 1000 HP C18's. What the 3406 became. I worked on one that they put 10 cylinder MAN's in, it cruised at 37 knots and topped out at 43...

I've found the Garmin app to be better than the Navionics. The charts are more readable.
No, the fast SF like the weight as far aft as possible. Almost every single one I've run. Most of the boats that have a bow and stern fuel tank...
I can't access the link...... spell out the .com part with some spaces.
They receive and see AIS broadcasts, they simply don't send out AIS information themselves.
Headhunters are very reliable and very few parts to go wrong, basically only the flush valve solenoid. Easy to carry a spare and easy to change....
This and re-sealing an old ram, 50% time it will still leak as the shaft gets micro scratches in it that eat up the new seals.....honing the shaft...
There is also marina fort Louis over on the French side that is a fairly nice marina.
