They like to be run at 80% load and haven't seen any issues running them that way....I delivered a few of those boats long distance....Ft. Laud to...
+1. About every 6 hours just bring them up to 1950's for 30 minutes. I've also found the MAN's like to run harder and 1950-2000 rpms or close to...
Price???
ECDIS is not necessary for the size yachts that I run, so I am not taking that right now. I simply don't have the time to take it. That's why I...
I also have had a dozen Newmar chargers go bad over the years and cook batteries, one was a pt2495 (95 amps) that went bad at 6 months old.
You really need to remedy why your batteries are getting cooked. Many times I've seen the charger leaking AC voltage and frying batteries and...
So then take the Bridge resources management class so your license is valid outside of the boundary line, like I am. It's only one class that is...
Your current MMC will still be valid after the cutoff date, it will just be valid nationally only. BUT, in all honestly I have travelled all over...
Yes, check on buying from another manufacturer!!!!!!!!!!
Those have long since been sorted out. I am familiar with one, it was Awlgripped in 2004, still looks good, still have no cracks coming through.
I don't understand that comment. SF spend half their time at trawler speeds trolling and are designed for stability on the troll. Yes, you...
Keep both. Cabo (and others) used the screens and some customers added sea strainers. The screen strainers are pretty effective at keeping grass...
We ran 56 psi on the low side. 58-60 psi would cause some compressor chatter. We haven't had any issues of any of the units flashing low...
4 Group 31's should have plenty of CCA's to roll them over. Call a MAN dealer, but I run a boat with 1100 common rails and 2 group 31's fire it...
I have them sand blasted, then hit them with a good aerosal primer and aerosal bottom paint inside and out and it seems to work really good.
R417 was a eco friendly drop in for R22. One boat I manage, a 2007 with 6 units had R417a in all of the units. It is not as efficient as R22....
Yes it's true, but I'm talking about a Captain in their 20's as second captains on a 238' supply boat with a 200 ton master $700/800 day. The...
I have 2 friends that work in the commercial oil field world as Captains. One is in Antartica right now and the other in the Gulf. They get...
They're Viking, they do as good as a job as the factory did on building your boat. I would trust them with doing a bottom job and prop speed.
Form over function and looks over safety. You know a windlass,anchor, and a pulpit are ugly on a beautiful SF and how often do SF ever anchor....
