If the mate is taking over because the captain(owner) isn't paying attention. Then, I would pretty much assume the owner (captain) is operating...
Seafarer Marine in Fort Lauderdale, FL would have Teak that wide in stock.
I see a lot or most Captains working full time on smaller yachts.....let's say 85'< and they don't have a contract. Most of them are hired...
One relay might be for the shutdown switch.
No, the City of Ft. Pierce marina was all floating docks before that hurricane. The docks all floated away, the marina was near full and many...
Standing that close to spinning propellors is sheer stupidity.
Just about any 18 year old boat is going to have leaking windows. The sealant used to install the windows is past it's normal lifespan. Most...
Glad to hear it all worked out ok. However, I wouldn't post that on an internet forum if I did it.....LOL....
And, how much is your time worth? How much of your time have you spent on here and elsewhere trying to figure out electricity, meanwhile the boat...
I don't think the boat would fit through the bridge right inside the inlet with the outriggers extended out. Most all fishing trawlers have a...
The boat was designed properly for the fishing rig it was carrying and had the proper amount of self righting to self right itself from the force...
Jeeeez Marmot, how else are you going to light the charcoal barbeque grill on the dock next to the power pedestal when the winds blowing????? And...
If you just point him in the direction of where the glenndenning shorepower storage bins are, and the panel, it should take an hour or two to...
Quite frankly, at this point I would just get a marine electrician on board. In an hour or two, he should be able to tell you where you stand.
It sure sounds like you have 2 phases out of 3, which shouldn't be used, but I've seen many marina's do it. Have you tried a 2-30amp to 50amp...
One thing to keep in mind if you switch to AGMs is they have about 20% less Cold Cranking Amps than their lead acid brothers.
Start at the shorepower cable and work down the line. Check the end where it plugs into the boat and it should read the same voltage. etc etc.....
If a fully charged Group 31 battery drops to 6 volts when cranking and will not crank a 454 over, it's time for new batteries.
The ones I've dealt with were lighter. I wouldn't make it a permanent installation because you don't use it at all marina's or even most. Kind...
As with anything, they probably made the owner a financial offer that he couldn't refuse.....
