In true Salt, what output (gph) are you getting and at what pressure? (psi)
A lot of shallow places. NC only had a few, mostly where the ICW channel almost goes out to the inlet, SC just North of Charleston between the 2...
I pretty much share the same sentiments. However, due to the fact that I run 150 different yachts of all ages.....and cut my teeth on old ones...
You cannot compare a wooden built Trumpy or similar boats construction methods to cold molded modern wood construction. They are 2 totally...
Changing coolant every 2-3 years and using the proper DD stuff is critical in 92's. 92's live about half the hours of 71's equally spec'ed. I've...
What I meant to say is the MTU laptop.
It's even EASIER! You just plug the laptop in and It tells you what's wrong in this situation.
WELLLLLLL, the MTU is still using the same electronics on their new motors. That is the entire reason they bought DD, just for the electronics...
If the noise is coming out of the engine room, it is probably not starved for air as it would be sucking air in and noise wouldn't be coming out...

No it will not, as all of the stringers and transom, and possibly deck have been sitting underwater. They are all wood cored, and they are all...
The cost of the parts to fix something like this boat will exceed what it's worth without even including labor. Start adding up engines and...
MAYBE $150k with brand new engines and gen. You can pick up a good condition 50' Post in the $200's that's a far bigger and far superior boat....
The problem is a boat like a Nordhavn is going to be restrictive for the places you want to go due to draft......plus do you want to be stuck...
I beg to differ. Key West is a great stop if you like good food and a lot of land based activities (civilization). Very few places in the...
Carbon fiber is very strong and has a very strong weight to strength ratio, but it's impact resistance is lower than other materials and even...
A crew of 3 would be around $200-250k a year when you factor in benefits and expenses etc. A 80' can be easily run with a crew of 2, if you're...
