While far from ideal, you could Y both pumps into the same discharge hose with check valves if you had to, I'd find this superior to just having...
I would NOT trust repairing the block with a hole in it. There will be other damage to the block such as the crankshaft galleys if it threw a...
HULL, not hell. Typo....... the hull juts out about 5" about 8" above the waterline and stays that way to the rub rail. Just like a lot of the...
Thank You. While a rebuilt 12v71TI will go darn near forever, if you're going to cut a hole in the boat to get one out. It might be best to go...
Well, you're talking about a boat that was built 36 years ago. None of the people that worked at the factory are still there, and most of them...
I get very good prices on parts and systems from Beard but will not let them service any of my management yachts for the reasons mentioned. My...
I would recommend having an automatic pump like the rulamatic (the square one that has a built in float switch, not the one that cycles on every 2...
Yes, I had this done on a 1988 65' (that was extended to 75') nice straight up staircase. We didn't have to remove any bulkheads or anything. I...
There is no way it is that narrow at the waterline at the beamiest point. maybe right at the waterline, but then there is the 5" lip of hell that...
I'm pretty sure my buddy bought your boat, possibly from you around 12 years ago.

The new Westerbeke's are junk, ever since they switched over to the electronic control panel. Issue after issue after issue with the electronics....
At 1.46" which is what Covington set them up at it runs crystal clean, no visible smoke at any RPM.
Yeah, but none of the marinizers kept them factory HP until the DDECs and Penske came along made them stop tinkering with them......Covington made...
It sounds to me like the threaded holes were installed for a cover plate because it threw a rod. The holes you're describing do not sound factory...
I've seen many TI's around 735 hp.
I'll start out by saying I manage Yachts, about 10 of them, have been doing so for 15 years, and all of the owners I work for I've worked for a...
Usually yes, it's the easiest as a Captain's cell phone is being used half of the time for boat's business anyways.....calling marina's, calling...
I'd rather replace them with C18's. hehehe
I have a customer with a 50' Post and Man's, it's a very good combo. Fast and fuel efficient. He has almost 5800 hours on these engines with no...
