I've seen it around down here in South Florida, other than that I don't know anything about it.....
Not really, I've seen heat exchangers taken off after rydlime or barnacle buster is used and still hasn't cured the overheating problem. It seems...
You should be able to get that kind of power easily out of the newer vortech motors in nearly stock form without having to stroke a set of 350's....
Yes, you can convert the boat to fresh water cooling..... I don't know the exact cost, but you need a heat exchanger, expansion tank, and various...
I've seen many deck hatches leak and run down on the inside of the vinyl headliner and show no source of leak until where it came out of the...
You know, there are just way too many variables and too many options. The majority of the time, the gas engines die an early death from the raw...
Aircraft carriers need 60 knots of wind in order to launch aircraft. If there is no wind, they are capable of creating 60 knots of wind over the...
Effective????? hardly. 8 times out of 10 on heat exchangers I've seen pulled, it's broken off zincs and debris that are restricting waterflow...
I just ran a 61' Viking SC (flybridge boat) that was a 2003 and sold for under $500k. It needed none of that, engines were recently serviced by...
HUGE difference on this size boat. If going express, the 35' Carolina Classic is the best riding express I've run out of all of them, bar none....
It is a little complicated to remove, clean and replace them and more labor intensive than most motors because you have to take several things off...
I had a boat that I managed with those engines, they had low hours around 650 hours, and mysteriously they both started running hot around a month...
I agree with this totally. For that price range I'd move about and beyond detroit diesels. I would take a hard look at a Cabo. I would also...
I agree with the other sentiments and would also take a look at the 58' Searay SB, they are more capable ocean boats than the carvers and similar...
He's out of St. Augustine which isn't too far from your neck of the woods.
Just because it has pvc coring, does not mean that the decks cannot get weak if there's water intrusion. You can take divynicell and break it in...
All of the newer boats I manage have spring loaded valves that keep them in the closed position. A lot of older yachts I manage or have been on,...
It's true, actually you can get away with gauges, a good leak detector, and r-22, an infrared temp gun, and a few small tools. At least then you...
I saw a boat leak fuel all over the marina the other day for that very reason. The owner didn't close the gate valves on the sight tubes and 1...
