Inside of the lower hose fitting on the bottom of the resevoir, there is a filter or mesh screen. I have seen it get all full of debris over the...
Miami Beach Marina is a nice marina and in South Beach. There is a surge and wake that goes through there a lot of times, and is much worse south...
It depends on how much traveling you're doing. The more you're doing, the more this mod will pay for itself between cutlass bearing changes....
It doesn't matter what motoryacht they're installed in, if they're both propped to hit 2300 rpms at WOT, then fuel burn should be very similar. I...
E rated CATS are recommended to be run at 80% LOAD, not by RPM, provided they turn the maximum rated RPM at full throttle.
I was told by Northern lights they'll go 40k hours in a commercial 24/7 (more or less) use setting and less hours in a pleasure boat. They are a...
Well yes and no. a 50amp cord should be able to pull 50 amps AT 240 volts. Some marina's I've been to hover around 206 volts which puts more...
I don't know any engine surveyors in that area. However, I don't think you can go wrong by having the Factory Detroit Diesel dealer for that area...
I think NYCAP is referring to engines generally found in yachts which would generally be an "E" rating in most of them. You should cruise at 80%...
Woooops, momentary lapse of reason. I meant to say if you draw too many amps for the shorepower cord, which many yachts are capable of doing if...
I usually have about 1 boat a year that will melt the shorepower end. This usually happens if you draw too much voltage from a 50amp cord....
Yes, 80% is what most engine manufacturers recommend. I prefer to cruise at 1950 rpm's usually if the engine top rpm is 2350rpms. This usually...
It's actually not as bad as everyone seems to think. Removing it could be done in 2 days with 2 guys most likely. It depends on how much stuff...
Yes, some have lower trailers than others. Sometimes you can tilt the bow up, to get the helm lower in relation to the trailer......stuff like...
I have also melted a shorepower cord at Miami Beach Marina, but don't remember what the voltage was. It does sound like there are A LOT of fires...
I would look for a bareboat out of Nassau, Bahamas if you're going to do it that way. The Exumas are my favorite part of the Bahamas and Sampson...
That Palmer Johnson is a very very nice boat in person. I saw Four Jacks at Atlantis a while back and it was a very sharp looking yacht
I think we've all been a source of the cause at one time or another.....I've had an empty plastic bag blow off of the deck, or accidentally...
Viking has always built a well built boat. I'm not familiar with the 35' but it should be a good choice. Visibility from a lower helm is...
Actually, nothing of any substance should grow inside the tube. In order for growth you need waterflow or current, and sunlight. I don't see any...
