I agree, but why did it take 17 years to bring the man to justice? That's pretty ridiculous.
Yeah E10.
The problem with putting an Aluminum or s/s shoe over the fiberglass keel would be that it would actually weaken the hull. The Aluminum (of...
When you are forcing people to buy something to feed their daily drivers that aren't made to run on it, and they don't have the alternative to buy...
I looked at a 70' Huckins enclosed bridge SF, I believe the boat was a 1991 for another YF member. It looked to be a well built vessel for the...
Once you hook the computer up to it, you should be able to find the problem pretty quickly.
Exactly, to the public E85 is garbage. To a very certain very small niche of racers it is great fuel........so please stop telling the general...
Does anyone know the cause of the fire? Sad to say it, but she's unrepairable and just a memory at this point. It's a good thing that it...
It took 17 years to find the owner guilty? That is pretty ridiculous in and of itself. The man is 84 years old, at this point why bother putting...

I understand what you are saying. But you're talking about maintanence hungry vehicles, built with expensive parts, setup to run specifically on...
It might have been "For your eyes only", but could've sworn it was Octopussy and Jupiter Inlet and not Hillsboro. They kept it pretty hush hush...
Yes, it sank in Jupiter inlet when it was nearly new. They blew tons of ping pong balls into the engine room which created the bouyancy needed...
It happened when the boat was new in Jupiter inlet on one of it's maiden seatrials for Staluppi. The boat hit bottom in the inlet and had a jet...
Yeah, and they can be knocked off of the bottom of the boat just as well and it creates a huge hole in the bottom, such as with Octopussy. Maybe...
I don't like waterjets as they're really only efficient at cruise speed and even at that not usually as efficient as propellors. The zues and...
Because it works. Because it can be easily fixed. Because if you take care of it, it lasts generations. Look at all of the Aluminum Chris Craft...
Feadship....Luursen......the list goes on and on. Yeah Aluminum can be a little more expensive to maintain, but there are many fine yachts made...
