I've seen it in person, it is indeed way too over the top and nothing I would want.
Have you given Bob Roscioli a call and asked about his input. I'm sure he'd love to talk to you and might have more insight than we do. If...
It's looked down upon based upon the engine room alone. Some of the installation methods and for example the home depot PVC shutoffs for all of...
I wouldn't go anywhere solo, let alone cross an ocean. For safety reasons alone. There is no way you can stand a safe watch solo. Even with 2...
There is what looks to be a 50' Post sf called "off duty". It has the davit on the starboard side and about a 13' rib on it.
I think they used 1 converter, but I am not certain. Check either behind your circuit breaker panel, or in the attic area of your boat. On the...
C 18's would be your cheapest route by far. You could still utilize your existing running gear. Quite honestly I wouldn't even consider 8v2000's...
There are no 120 volt ceiling lights on a Cabo. The 4 that went out when he lost power are DC lights but fed by a Newmar AC to DC converter, so...
No, they are all 24 volt bulbs. 2 get power from the house batteries. The other 4 get power from the ac to dc newmar converter. It runs off of...
Well, if you're looking for 1100hp total. What about 2 five seven outboards? Broad powerband and simple, bolt them on the stern and go?
4 of your lights are on an a/c to d/c converter which converts the ac power to dc so essentially you still use dc lightbulbs
I ran a 2001 50' Post that had both a Nautical structures 1000lb davit on the port side, it had 2 fiberglass dock boxes up there, and it also had...
What about diesel electric units for slow speed, as well as peak power use, and possibly a smaller generator for light use. However, the light...
I'd NEVER do little mud river at low tide.....always at high tide.....
Then I'd be taking a hard look at CAT, since we both told you the exact same thing about the MTU's. However the ones I ran in the Hatteras did...
They usually don't work well as the primary propulsion in a yacht, because they are grossly in-efficient at slower speeds, where yachts travel at...
I had opposite experiences on a brand new (at the time) 2013 55' express. I ran it from Ft. Laud to St. Maarten. It had 800 mans and was...
Yeah. Possibly after you change out the PVC home depot shutoff valves on ALL of the through-hulls, rebrace the salon ceiling so a fat guy doesn't...
The 57' should ride ok, as the 65 was the same hull except stretched at the rear (I'm pretty sure) and when they did that they created too much...
This is very DANGEROUS advice. Skyhook is only accurate in holding the boat within 1 boat length and can and does make very abrupt,fast, and...
