Yeah, I prefer Lifeline over Odyssey, just seen the Lifeline last longer. They're both very HEAVY, that makes changing them a pain. But great...
It also depends A LOT on what you have behind the anchor. A lot of SF have like 6' of chain and the rest is rope. If you have all chain it adds...
Sales on new yachts were very slow from what I hear. However a used yacht broker told me there were a lot less people wandering the docks BUT,...
Generally AGM's use the same charger setting as lead acid on most chargers, the charging profile is very close, compared to GEL which operates at...
It depends on location, charger and all of the things Capt Holli asked. AGMs are a safe bet for wherever they're mounted in the boat and take the...
No, rudders shouldn't have an impact on it riding bow high, that's a combination of props (how much lift they have and number of blades), shaft...
Yes, from Johnson. Look at the impeller chart on the Johnson chart thing and it will show which pump the impellor goes to, order them for that...
Why don't you just dry the boat with a shurhold chamois mop?
I saw in a rare instance where the prop shaft threads were improperly cut and that caused the nuts to always back off. I forgot who had this...
Quite honestly I like how some of the SF builders do it, with smaller diameter splined shafts instead of keyways.
Usually 10' but it depends on owner. An owner holding a Captain's license goes a long way to make the jump a little further in between. It...
I agree with Pacblues comments. The props need to be lapped, and the nuts in the proper order.
That is just outright ridiculous.
Just download the detroit diesel owners manual or stop by your local dealer and talk to them instead of listening to old wives tales. I do have...
I wouldn't put Buck Algoquin parts on my boat period. That being said just use one line to the anchor and tie it off on one of the bow...
Because even though it's officially called Wire Rope or Stainless Cable, it's still individual stainless wires/strands that are braided together...
The newer stuff is coated with clear plastic/rubber and you can clearly see the braided cable inside of it.
DO NOT PUT DIESEL FUEL IN YOUR ENGINE OIL PAN!!!!!!!!!!! You should be able to figure out the valves to the hoses pretty easily.
Most companies will give a discount if the owner has a license, or they'll let an owner jump a little further (length) between boats if the owner...
I'd have the dealer come out and do the engine survey. They can quote prices which you can use to your advantage. I think that's it, but valve...
