They may share a common ground that isn't attached.
Not true. The Volvo IPS drives have foward facing props, so any fishing line you run over has more of a tendancy to get wrapped around the shaft...
I remember the wiring on the 1979 58' YF I ran for many years to be pretty large gauge for the loads they were carrying. I would think converting...
You can find people to work on the old 2 stroke DD's all over the world. The US military spread them all over the place and many are in service...
Another thing to keep in mind. All of these older Hatteras do have a 12 volt bank (generator), for running electronics and such. So you could...
That is correct. VERY few things on a Cabo will have fuses. Honestly, diagnosing this problem is beyond your capabilities. First take a...
Follow the wires from the lights to where they go. I cannot remember what the panel on your boat looks like. The digital displays for the power...
You're welcome, thanks for the praise.
Absolutely. Take a loot at the other Sea Duece thread on here, the link is below. The owner maintains it constantly to excellent shape and is...
Complacency. It takes time to go around and dog every one of them. It was cold too wasn't it? Maybe some were frozen, I don't know.....but it...
Don't forget to call because many fuel docks will offer discounts off of their prices for volumes of 500,1000 gallons etc. as well.
It is, but I find it odd that the motors are so far over towards the hull sides....
That's the problem, when you need a 32 volt item, most places will have the 12 or 24 volt item in stock and not need to be ordered. The 32 volt...
I don't know of any prop shops in the Panama City area. Might be worth sending them down to Frank and Jimmy's in lauderdale, although the props...
Experience, if there's an engine out there (relatively modern), I have probably run it and probably run it for an extended period of time. Any...
I have a customer looking to buy a 60-70' MY and one of them is an IPS boat. I've run 5 IPS boats, but never maintained one for the long term. A...
Yeah you should burn around there at hull speed if the 3116's are running at 1000 rpms or less and you're maintaining hull speed. Should burn...
Inconvenient- locating the parts, some are no longer made such as 32 volt g 4 lightbulbs and other bulbs, the blower motor, most of the time the...
32 volt is not expensive to maintain, but it sure as heck is difficult and getting more difficult. If you need to repower, which might be...
Yeah, but you have several boats with a lower helm and no upper helm :D
