Yes, I agree on the exhaust. The s/s. bellows/compensator piece goes bad every few years and you either have to order it and the clamps from...
What PACBLUE is saying is that the C18's as main propulsion engines in a yacht will not last as many hours as a generator. I agree with that, a...
That's tythe exact problem I found with the Micron. If you need a diver every 10 days, the paint is just not doing it's job and not effective....
There are a number of CAT certified guys in South Florida to survey them, among them would be the dealer themselves, N+G Engineering, and Smith...
The best place to get Azimut parts even in S. Florida, is Rob at Surfside Marinemax in NY. I've managed 4 Azimuts and they are the largest...
Cat rates the pleasure version 1015hp, at 10,000 hours.
Such is true, but if you're boating in the south, you're going to be running the a/c 24/7 and might as well keep the hot water heater on, so the...
Ocean World has a customs office in the marina making checking in and out easy. It also has a good restaurant, bar, hotel rooms, and a casino....
15 kw sounds big for that boat. However, I'd replace both generators with the same brand and size, that way parts and maintanence is the same.
You can increase the range exponentially by running at hull speed instead of on plane. Probably around 8 knots on that boat, maybe less. You can...
Yeah, under turbo boost the engines only run on 1/2 of the cylinders to save fuel. I'd run them up to cruise every 6hrs for 30 minutes....
Actually, running the Pamlico sound is 10' deep or more and I've never had an issue running yachts with up to 6' of draft through there. They...
CABO has pretty good info on their 40' (only boat offered with zues in their line-up) along with tests and stuff on the website. I know that boat...
Actually the biggest advantage in regards to that is in a sportfish design. You can have more room under the cockpit for fish boxes and storage...
ZF parts are extremely expensive. I had to change the pump on a wb 183 I think it was......the pump was nothing more than a mechanical pump, it...
They're around $220 each and are 8 volt golf cart batteries x 8 of them usually on the Hatteras'
2 different hulls designs. The Grand Banks is more of a planing hull. Displacement speed on the old Grand Banks 42's was 7.5 knots. So I'm...
It's nice to see them producing boats........ I'm not familiar with the 64', but have been on the 76' more than a few times and it's a nice boat.
Such is true, but economy at displacement speeds is still much improved. I think a set of pods on a true displacement boat, with the proper...
I agree that they are bulletproof, but you're not gaining enough by going to them. The Grand Banks had a terrible harmonics through the vessel at...
