I was asking for a round about price because I have another owner thinking of putting teak in his cockpit, and it's nice to know the price in...
I managed a 63' Ocean 1987 for decades. The owner bought it in 1988. It did 30 knots at cruise the first year he owned it and started slowing...
Bobhorn this is not directed at YOU, but sailboaters in general. 8 out of 10 of them give boating a bad name. I don't go by active captain...
Switching from a 3 blade to 4 blade propellers will give you more lift. Generally you will need to lose 1" of pitch when going from a 3 blade to...
Yes, restroom facilities are generally free to all boaters who rent a slip. My comment was not really aimed at that. What I was saying is that,...
What was the cost of it?
I have only glanced at Active Captain once in a blue moon. I usually rely on the Waterway Guide cruising guide. I too have found what Pascal...
I have no experience with the 64 at all. But extensive experience with the 62', putting around 10,000 NMs on one and it is an incredible riding...
There has to be a way to reach the a/c strainer. Yes you can move it, but just make sure the hoses still make an uphill run from the seacock to...

While that might be the rule on class vessels, in reality I have never seen anyone have their shafts tested, nor have I even seen yards try to...
I have the manuals and diagrams of a 2007 62' Predator.....both items are absolutely useless......the electrical diagrahms will show a fuse for...
Shaft speed is another major contributor to lifespan. A lot of the older boats had a 3:1 or 4:1 reduction versus 2:1, so the shafts were spinning...
There is an alarm monitoring circuit board in the large black MAN box that is in the engine room that is what sends the signal to the display....
I agree and will further add that it came down to Brunswicks bean counting. Same with Cabo (with Cabo they moved them from a VERY efficient...
CATS are noisier in general. Not just what comes out of the engine exhaust, but the engines are just noisy from what comes from standing next to...
Cat's are going to be noisier in general than most other engine brands. The 54' Hatteras SF is an incredible riding boat. The 60 is a good...
That's exactly where it is on the Hampton 620 I have managed and maintained for over 4 years now. I can most likely even find pictures on my...
