You're going to have to measure your boat exactly. I've found the bridge was closer to 20' on the Chicago waterway the times I went through it....
Well gas inboards have fallen out of favor as outboards are just better all of the way around. The inboards you have to change the manifolds and...
Stern drives do ok on a lift. That is an option.
Some marina's have pools. Some have a vibrant dock community and nightlife. One option is to get a house on the water and a fast center console...
Searays are pretty well built for their price point. A Hatteras or Viking they are not, but they are not priced that way. They're a good all...
It depends on the size. But generally speaking 60' and under, in most marina's you can secure a long term slip a month or two out...…..some of...
My point is with a 130’ you have the ability to get into marinas and anchoring is a choice NOT a necessity
Well getting into and out of a tender just to get to land or take the dog for a walk sucks in my opinion when it's a necessity due to draft and...
I agree that it's legal, but here is where the issue lies in a large yacht being chartered "bareboat". A large yacht has a full time crew on it...
Just poach Olderboaters crew, he is always raving about them!!!!! :D:D I don't know the key to finding great crew. I think the start is finding...
I don't know about boats. But I know a diesel and outboard mechanic that has a perfect running Ford powerstroke 1997 7.3 diesel F 250. He runs...
You will need a chef to cook for the crew. But chartering for a week makes sense.
I've seen that boat on numerous occasions in Biscayne bay loaded with like 30 college aged people on it partying every time.
That makes sense and Galvanic Isolators don't last forever either. Galvanic isolators are not terribly expense and are relatively easy to change.
The battery charger is no longer charging the batteries, hence the low voltage. It might be as simple as the breaker is off to the charger or the...
Well,if the battery charger goes bad that would happen. If the battery charger is leaking AC voltage it can fry all of those things.
Yes. Not highly likely but possible
But it sounds like what he needs for the amount of people and level of service he wants.
The computer has A LOT of visible corrosion on the outside of the case. I cannot believe that the inside wasn't negatively effected. Batteries...
From what you're saying in the way of guests and usage, I think you should go straight to a 130'. Most 112' owners eventually do.
