How about the horn being wired to a engine room bilge pump breaker.....yeah....... they both were wired to the same breaker, yeah it was on an azimut.
The electrical plan usually does not mean anything. The subcontracters never follow it, and the wiring is routed however they see fit. I've even...
From what I've seen the Rotella at least here in the US is not as good as it used to be. One MTU/DD dealer told me on long term engines they've...
Good straight 40W. Although it wouldn't hurt to use 15w40, Caterpillar oil is reasonably priced, so you might as well use theirs.
Read the article above, they sunk their own ship, the Ady Gil because it would lead to more donations and then leaked Diesel all over the Indian...
I'm comparing it to a 1-2' nasty chop in an ocean. Not one that is unsafe, but one where you're in a 30' CC and get your teeth jarred. The 5-7's...
illegal violence at sea- check illegal act commited for private ends- more donations- check.
I'm not getting worked up, I'm telling it like it is. Suppose they were successful and got onto the platform. Then what were they going to do???...
I agree that 5-7' on the Great Lakes are rougher than on the ocean. You have less floatation because freshwater is less bouyant (which is a...
Surviving the leaking defective aftercoolers a lot of Series 60 came with. The amount of hours is remarkable, no doubt. There are also a lot of...
Attempting to sink a ship by repeatedly ramming it, or commadeering an oil platform, when their lives are not directly effected or in danger from...
2100's is a little hard, less hard if they're Naturals.......2000rpms would be ok......but if the boat only stays on plane at 2100, then run them...
That's not exactly good either. The Exhaust temps heat up for a short period of time, cool down to idle, then heated right back up and back and...
How fast does it go at cruise and at WOT? Is it totally a flat bottom or does it have some V to it? Whats the beam? Trailer?
Eats at them, but typically the motor wears out far before the salt does anything detrimental. Except maybe a circulating water pump or...
You seem to have a huge issue of the very wealthy versus the working man which in most cases is untrue. There are a lot of very good ceo's, hedge...
This is the biggest killer. I've seen marine diesels have dead cylinders and needing majors with as little as 600hrs from sitting on a waterway...
Just because people are willing to fund it, does not make it right. Harming other people's livelihood, property, putting lives at danger, and...
The 50' Post likes to run with the FWD tank empty as quick as possible.......meaning transfer it to the main aft tank as quick as possible,...
This also means island engineering a lot of fixes so that the charter happens, but a lot of times they never get around to fixing the broken item...
