Lazzara's are very efficient but at the expense of ride in a sea. The 68' cruises at 22 knots with only 1000 hp C18's. They are built very light...
1" more pitch will drop you 50 rpms. Cabo built a lot of 45's with C18's and they fit just fine, 30.5 knots is all you get at cruise, so is the...
None of the information I posted was googled. I googled a third party site to re-inforce what I wrote, from Captholli's own air conditioning...
If you have any coolant left, pull samples and send it out to a lab. The CAT dealer sells the sample and comes with a bottle, pre-paid postage...
Then perhaps you can go to Ocean Breeze's website that I posted the link to in my last posting and study up what those darn things are called and...
It's not about whether I'm right or wrong. It's about the OP and Pascal getting the right information for their boats that they're looking for....
The titanium has NOTHING to do with growth, it will just make the unit (heat exchanger) last much longer every time you acid wash the sea water...
Then why did you post a picture of a 3 stage chiller. There are 3 compressor units. Personally I would've gone with the new Dometic units with...
3 chiller units on the same stand stacked one on top of the other. There are 2 sets of gate valves on the right side of each chiller to shut off...
The 63' Hampton I manage is the exact same way and I would be more than happy to take a picture when I get to the boat on Monday, it has two 4 ton...
The system you are running and the boat you are on are not relevant to this thread. We are talking about yachts here, NOT a megayacht and NOT a...
Viking themselves states two 6 ton chiller units, they are 2 totally seperate chillers that are plumbed with the same water line and sea water...
The small sailboats are a lot more fun than the big ones. Just got to be careful you don't roll one and end up in the drink!
The 45 Cabo should cruise right at 28.5 knots at 1950rpms-2000rpms with the right props and 800 mans and 80% load, yours probably 2000 rpms, but...
Might be easiest to just change the transformers to AC to DC converters.
AC no, but then again I've never ever seen 24v ac g 4 lightbulbs either, just 12 volt ac. Hatteras uses a AC to 24v DC converter, usually Newmar....
You're splitting hairs and inaccurate. The 2 stage chiller on the Viking you refer to IS NOT ONE CHILLER. It is two seperately functioning...
The thread is talking about yachts and so was the op in it. He had a 46 FOOT Post remember, and Pascal a 53 FOOT Hatteras MY. Not some 100 meter...
The old Viking 75's were built by a company that is best known as Lazzara. They were pretty well built, but not as good as a Hatteras. I used to...
To add to this. There is no such thing as a 2 stage chiller and 3 stage chiller. They are totally seperate chillers that the water loop goes...
