I am not familiar with that age 50' SF Hatteras. I always seemed to run 52' etc. I would guess cruise speed would be around 23 knots with those...
It's sandwiched in there because it gives Northern buyers an opportunity to buy, sea trial and close on a yacht before the Northern season starts....
Yes, they were installed on several Neptunus' that I managed several years back and Neptunus used Head Hunter toilets on all of those boats....
I forget who makes them, but they're initially designed for a diesel truck and NAPA is where I have bought them before. Take a picture of it and...
IDK, Viking had at least 15 sportfish there from what I could see from afar. A few manufacturers and dealers I've spoken to had a good show and...
What about the fuel vents? Have them open the fuel tank fill (s) and see if that changes anything.
I have managed yachts with Grunfos pumps and they have worked well. Problem is that they're much harder to find for sale. etc.
Most of the companies in South Florida don't actually tent the houses or treat for termites themselves. They quote the price and a sub contractor...

AND an air tank with 70’ of hose and a regulator and some weights, and a mask and snorkel.
I've never had an issue hooking lobster traps with stabilizers. I have gotten trap line around the shafts a half dozen times over the years.
You're going to have to get a job as a mate on a busy yacht that moves around a bit. Hopefully one where the Captain will give you time at the...

It could be as simple as a third engineer forgetting to transfer fuel to the day tank...….that or electrical would be my guess.
Seafarer in Fort Lauderdale sells those hinges. They work pretty well.
Yes, and the latest automated systems are the worst ones because they're so complex. I was running a yacht that had everything and all of the...
Perhaps the engineer or crew weren't paying attention and ran the day tank out of fuel! Who knows at this point. I would tend to guess it was...
