I have yet to see a 557 on the water being used....anywhere.....
I wouldn't want to go out in a Hurricane in a Navy Destroyer.....let alone a rotted wooden tall ship.....based on a centuries old design......
Yeah, except at MLW you're supposed to have 12' in the channel in the ICW......At MLW you'd have 5' of total depth maybe......the ICW is getting...
Let's see. 1. The ship was a rotton POS that needed a lot of hull maintanence 2. The fuel tanks had a lot of algae in them. 3. The engineer...
Can't the authorities find it and the hijackers with a helicopter......The thing only does 8 knots, they couldn't get too far too quickly in it....
You know what's really sad though. 60-65' used to be the bread and butter size for all of these custom builders that were just...
It's a shame all of this nonsense has to go on because of the EPA...... I guess you just have to experiment with it. If it's rolled right, you...
For the exterior, you're better off encapsulating it in a Eurethane such as Awlclear. Neptunus would do their aft deck tables encapsulated in a...
I just took a boat from Ft. Laud to Myrtle Beach, SC, the ICW the whole way. MAN is it tight in some spots.....Georgia is really bad.....luckily...
The cap is doing it's job if there still is a little pressure in the system when the engine is cold. I've seen this happen on engines with...
The engine burns virtually the same GPH no matter what boat you put it in if you're running them all at 80% load and they're all propped to...
It's 41F there right now........even those days it's 55F at night......colder than I'd want to be on the water.....but A LOT milder than it has...
That's because they're all smart enough to get out of the cold!
Try Cabo Yachts, they might still have new ones in stock. Cantelupi changes models very often, but the springs are universal through a lot of...
Not from what I've seen.....The new prop is the same material but just a 3 blade instead of a 5 blade or 6. A screen small enough might...
If they're Vetus bowthruster props. It's corrosion. Water gets between the plastic bow thruster propellor and the brass hub, that puts pressure...
I never ended up buying them, and forgot who manufactured them. But for a 32 volt system you have to find the ones rated 10-36 volts...... The...
Yes. I worked on a 2003 75' Jim Smith SF for 6 months. It cruised at 35 knots at 1950rpms and topped out at 43-44 knots. Phenomenal ride and...
The swim platform is not integral and optional on that boat, so it's not included in the LOA. I also believe that the bow pulpit is not included,...
That picture was taken in Isle of Palms, SC wasn't it?
