That's another thought. Perhaps it ate a raw water impellor at cruise RPM and the exhaust got very hot and baked the paint off before they slowed...
Perhaps you should try some!
It depends on the engine room and room you have. I've done scribed placards and drilled the screw heads......I've done glass over vinyl...
The info is a little wrong IMO. Hull speed on a 42' Grand Banks is 7.2 knots, it doesn't matter how much you push it with how much HP. I would...
It's not snake oil. It's a high temp joint compound which is Sold and recommended by D'Angelo's marine exhaust, the MTU/DD dealer, the Cat dealer...
Being that "no tests can be performed", I highly doubt he can remove the air cleaner or exhaust to see if the turbo's turn by hand.
You don't want to run a twin engine vessel on 1 engine. It is in-efficient because the thrust is not pushing the vessel straight. But the main...
Easy enough. I would inspect both manifolds really good while you have them out and clean and paint them well. There is a compound/sealer you...
Dirty aftercoolers or intercoolers. Is the engine room sooty? As those exhaust compensators are known to fail about every 2 years, and then soot...
Any company that produces vinyl wraps for boats should be able to replicate that from a picture without a problem.
Yes, but the problem with GRP is you have to first build a mold, to then make that one custom boat which makes it very cost prohibitive. If...
Since you exhausted your other options, heat will be your friend. Either that or remove the exhaust housing and turbo's as 1 piece and having a...
I have had a lot of MTU's where if you fill them up to the full mark at the end of the day they will be halfway. You can repeat this process over...
Talk to Reverse Osmosis in Fort Lauderdale. They're a good company to deal with and good people. They may advise you what other membranes will...
You need 3 people on board to transit up the Welland Canal. You pull into the entrance to the canal and on your port side is a concrete...
The owner's manual is completely useless on that boat. It shows and describes parts that are not used and different parts were used. It barely...
I would think they would work fine. How would you mount them, just pad them to make up the extra space between them and the clamps. What about...
Port engines always seem to use a touch more fuel, and a slightly higher load factor on almost every yacht I run. I think because they're the...
Is 190 volts within the accepted range for a 240 volt system? Also when the power utility delivers 240-245volts to the area? There have been...
Of course there is variance......but many marina's start out with 208V because it's a lot cheaper to split up 3 phase, then they don't get step up...
