AC discharges can flood the boat so it's a completely different issue than bilge pumps and sumps. If the TH is close to waterline, you do want to...
8V71s are rated at 2300, you need to see 2300rpm at WOT loaded. If you don't get that, or close to, it means you are over propped, something is...
Afaik both the N and TI are rated at 2300 rpm so a max cruise of 1900 to 1950 is reasonable. You didn't say what size both you have but running...
This happened at our marina a fe months ago... A 40ish express was thought to be stolen, a few days later it turned out a mechanic had just picked...
If it s going to happen at the dock, forget running running aground etc Fire is messy and can quickly get out of control. The most plausible...
I am no expert in that rotten line of work but it seems to me that considering the money involved in "moving large amount of drugs" buying a cheap...
"Apparently they manipulated fuel line fittings that had been removed. The reason: To prevent the boat's theft." This drives me nuts... Why can't...
The closest I ve been to a nordhavn is towing a fairly recent 60 footer thru nassau harbor a couple of months ago after the owners called a mayday...

I don't quite understand why wind has anything to do with the size of the boat you can safely single hand. The bigger the boat, the less effect...
Paper plates are so.... Sailboatish :) I guess it all depends, I know many owners who enjoy cooking on board instead of eating out. Personally I...
I haven't seen it in the flesh som my comments are based on what I ve found on line and the above... I ll second preferring Northern Lights over...
On the east coast 125/250-50 is pretty much standard in most slips (except small ones) not 125/50 although it may still be found at some small,...
Thanks guys... I had both TDS and Decksters on th boat to measure and give me estimates, another one coming this week... Synthetic? Nah... Don't...
In your case I would probably be more concerned by making sure the pumps and their float switches work in the first place. SR like many production...
Special paper for a vacuflush? Nope... Been using regular stuff incl charmin and never had a problem. Yeah I m sure the boards are expensive,...
There are a few diffent type of Vacuflush with different seals. If you don't want to wait till you get to the boat, maybe calling carver to find...
