There are several places online that sell them if you just google "thomas central vac"
That's a really neat looking boat. I bet you'd make a grande entrance at any marina you went to......
If the boat feels underpowered with 800 or 825hp, then go with the Man 1050's...... Of the 3 choices, the 800hp CATS would be my first choice due...
The house batteries are relevant. DDECs are very finnicky to a varying power supply and if they don't get un-interrupted voltage when the engine...
12v71 TI's burn about 12 GPH at 1000 rpms in a 75' Hatteras MY, I would guess the Naturals would burn 10 gph for both.
I don't know for certain, but based upon the HP and RPM, they should burn 6 gallons an hour at 1000rpms for both engines.
yes, 34 gallons is totally nuts, it also is a 2007, was built for the US market, and has the seacocks and valving to pump from the head directly...
The cutoff used to be 35' because I ran a 35' Cabo and it said 34'9 on the documentation papers and I used to always pay a lower fee and the...
Actually check the fuel tank vent even before that. I've seen on gas boats where the vent got clogged and when you went to cruise the tank had...
I ran one with 6BTA's, it was a good running boat, handled well, nice layout, dry, and a good ride. I think it cruised at 25 knots or so, and...
The reason the senders are a source of leakage is because most boats have plastic tanks that flex, expand, and contract. I've found holding tank...
Air Draft on a cruise ship can change by several feet depending on the weight of the vessel at the time. How much fuel, water, passangers, crew,...
I had this same problem with them many years ago......If I remember there is a fuse in the ECM or somewhere around there, possibly inline that...
I used to drag race a Mustang Cobra in Fun Ford Weekend's Street Renegade class. It used to run 10.80's at 128mph in the 1/4 mile back then. Not...
The issue the pumps I'm speaking about have had is that even though the pumps were below the waterline, the hose going to them had a slight loop...
What about the emergency backup controls? Do they operate? If trying to start the port engine causes the stbd engine to stall, then it sounds...
It sounds to me that the a/c pump is slightly above the waterline and that the builder or yard put the anti-siphon valve as a supposed quick fix,...
I agree also, and also feel that 30 years is a long life for a metal tank in any sportfish.
Connect the two wires together on the sender (on top of the tank inside the rear cockpit deck hatch, see if the gauge pegs. If it does not, it's...
I had the exact same issue on the same Volvo's. It turned out to be bad air filters. Try removing them completely and running the boat (make...
