Have you even seen an oil rig? A shallow water oil rig, is literally just a touch bigger than the channel markers for Government cut. You don't...
You are going to want a watermaker. Also, a y for 2-30amps to a single 50amp.
With the type of boat that you have, a single 6v71 would be your best bet if going the single route with a conventional straight shaft. However,...
How about putting a 20hp outboard on the back, then mounting a mast and sails?
At 72' you're going to have to pick your stops (sometimes short days) and make reservations. I did the entire great loop in a 75' Hatteras and it...
