I have spent more time sitting on the toilet on yachts, then you have spent on them. I have forgotten more about yachts than you will ever learn....
You're burning MORE fuel, running one engine at 1250 rpms, versus running both engines at 800 RPMS to maintain 8 knots. TWICE as much fuel...
The fins are 6 sq foot. I run it 80 % load, around 20 knots. What rpm are you at, at 9 knots.
I have managed a 62' Hampton for several years now. The boat has Wesmar digital stabilizers and I find it to handle quite well, but it's a pretty...
What things about the boat would you like to know?
I’ve seen that with D.D. Liners when they put too small a liner in. D.D. Has 4 liner sizes depending on what the bore in the block actually...
You do not want your mechanic rebuilding one of those pumps, order a rebuilt one from MTU. It can suck air from the pump O-rings and the pump...
Most planning boats are VERY stable at hull speed, versus the Marlow's and Offshores that wallow around and NEED stabilizers. And, If they have a...
Fix it. Leaks don't ever tend to fix themselves or get better, generally they get worse. Without seeing it, or pictures of it, the fix depends...

I believe these are not the military designed and built boats......but made and designed by some company. I've heard the enclosure of the entire...
Your right about all of the above. Generally the reason they turn milky is because they used 1 type of stain that breathes, and then sprayed...
You seriously expect someone to have a 33 year old sofa and table, and also want to part with them???? You're going to have to probably have them...
There is NO way a person can do a transatlantic solo and maintain a safe watch at all times. Nor is it safe for any of the things that may and do...

Not too bad...….just the motors and generator, a/c units....most had no teak to deal with.....some aluminum and stainless....easy boat to...
Forget the transatlantic. Buy the 52' Sunseeker which seems to meet your needs and desires, which a slow trawler does not. Enjoy the MED with it...
