I would always change the condensing unit and expansion unit. You should be able to read the tag on the expansion unit inside of the boat and...
Yeah, that's how it comes out if you use Gary's Golden Teak 2nd, same as photo's above.
I get it at any grocery store and it comes in 1/2 gallon plastic containers.
You could lightly sand it, but you're going to lose 1/16-1/8" of teak.......closer to 1/8". I would try wetting the deck, using a 3M doodle pad,...
Generally I would replace the entire unit. I prefer to not have to deal with a/c break downs period. Generally a split unit lasts about 10-12...
I don't really have much experience with the Morse. I do like adding ZF for swapping.
I would NEVER recommend buck algoquin. They mate a stainless handle to a bronze seacock and the handle eats the stud on the seacock it's mounted...
I use Henry with Seabreeze Marine A/C, he's been around since about the time Marine air conditioning was invented and does a great job.
Caterpillar recommends running them at 80% load. From what I've seen on most all CAT powered boats, the Gallons per mile from 1650 rpms up to 80%...
Yeah, providing you don't pickup more than a couple of handfuls of it. I was on a 160' megayacht that was anchoring in shallow water, stirred up...
Pick up some sand (running the watermaker while maneuvering/anchoring) or a little fuel or oil in it when you run it and it will wipe the...
They'd be fine to run at 1000 rpms for 6 hours, then run them at cruise for 30 minutes to blow them out..... no reason they shouldn't have the...
Raceboats experimented with inward rotation props, it added a few mph, but the boats wouldn't turn at speed and could not dock them either, so...
If your generator is running on a gas boat, the blowers should be on the entire time the generator is running, even if the engines are not.
Gear ratios can be found anywhere from 1:1-4:1 gear reduction and depends on how the manufacturer does things....I know of one 70' SF manufacturer...
That reminds me, I ran a 1979 41' Viking SF once with 6-71 Naturals, this boat was unbearably noisy on the flybridge and in the cockpit at 9 knots...
GPH at cruise would be 55-60GPH for both engines. Don't quote me on this but cruise speed around 26 knots.
WOOD boat and 3 18 cylinder CRN engines???? You need to not run or take a car, but you need a fighter jet to run from this one!
Fish like noise. Some engines are notorious for raising fish based on their sound (old detroits, newer cats) and some are horrible (Volvo's)....
Then they should work. A lot of times you can't get the Cabo's to go so slow even with trolling gears. I tried them on the Cats and could only...
