I would prefer the Zues package for a couple of reasons in that installation. I saw on a 38' Cabo that had some issues with the c9/zf pod package...
I don't think that no power to the memory systems should be a concern. Not driving it for that period of time is a killer to many other systems...
I have nothing against Volvo's and like the IPS system, aside from the parts sourcing issue. I do think the pods are not worth the trouble in a 3...
This is true, I'm just saying that sourcing Volvo parts is difficult a lot of times. Also with the Volvo's, I've had a few that were problem...
I'm quite familiar with cast iron. Cast Iron is pretty strong when done right, especially the new MIM process. It definately is not nearly as...
It's HARD to get parts for Volvo's in Fort Lauderdale, let alone elsewhere. I've had to wait 4-6 weeks many times for Volvo parts. And, these...
We might not have to wait that long. You should see the rust that falls off of that thing.......
The damage is impressive I agree. BUT the shape of the piece that came out. It really looks like that piece was cut out previously and welded...
The 50' F+S had IPS and was a good running boat, I was docked next to the Captain for a few days and we talked a lot. He showed me the entire...
On the ocean, we filled the fish boxes, livewell, and lazarette etc. and it brought us down about 8". 10" of freshwater in the bilge from a...
I would just find a way to get the top down......If you go straight down with the hardtop, it probably only needs to go down a foot...... would...
I would go with a fixed hardtop and you don't have to mess with the eisinglass either, and the arch seperate from the hardtop and have the arch...
I would go with the Hydraulic hardtop and strataglass. I've done the great loop and even in the summer time it can be pretty cold on the water up...
The only thing I could conceivably think of would be A LOT of crankcase gases in the coolant system. Fuel in the coolant system from a fuel...
You know, I see sooooo many owners concerned about buying POD boats. But the problem is, they're never going to run them enough for the fuel...
Catamarans are good, until you get in too big of a sea-state where the waves hit the bottom, then they can ride REALLY bad. That being said, they...
Jarrett Bay will build the boat any way you want it. No lower helm, no problem. Dinette no problem and you'll get more in resale. The Cabo 40'...
Searay is a far better quality boat. Marquis electrical is not very good and out of 3 I've run, 2 have had major fire causing electrical issues....
