A marine diesel at very low engine speeds such as idle rpm's uses very very little fuel. A 3116 at idle in gear is going to use less than 1 gph....
What work? Almost everytime I anchor the chain comes up clean. If you want spray it with the hose on it's way in, which is pretty easy as well....
A lot of yachts had this issue in the early to mid 2000's, both foriegn and domestic. The type or brand of clear coat/eurethane was the issue....
I don't understand that either and I've anchored many times.
Try Prospect plastics in Oakland Park, FL. I use them for a lot of windshield and plexiglass stuff.
Quite honestly Mr. Green lost a lot of respect when I see him holding an electric sander. I never use any electric tools when varnish besides a...
Stick a generator end on it for your house. That would create plenty of load and good for a lack of electricity.
6=71 Naturals are GREAT for that. I ran a 41' Viking with them that was so loud at hull speed you needed earmuffs on the flybridge.
I agree. I don't understand why soooo many people put out such a short amount of anchor rode/chain. I always put out lots of chain and around...
Correcting erroneous posts, yes I agree. But, the thread was about an Origional posters post was about hynautic STEERING on his cabo and how that...
I buy the fluid from Hynautic and it comes in a gallon jug already pre-mixed, you just pour it in. It seems to solve these corrossion issues as I...
Sportfish from my experience tend to defy the standard hull speed rule of efficiency a bit and many times a 55' Sportfish will still be pretty...
It happens in inlets if the inlet is shallow and it's rough...... if you're coming in and at the bottom of an 8' wave, then you are 4' below what...
You have fluid at 75 psi at the helm control, so when you push the lever from neutral to fwd/reverse it assists the pressure you're using to move...
I think the Hynautic uses higher air pressure to actually push the actuators. Hynautic engine controls it's recommended to have 75-85 psi in the...
There is access to that area, there has to be to access the water gauge. It's either going to be through the base of the cabinet directly above...
I'd put Rule 2000's in the engine room, the 3700's seem to airlock a lot easier and stay airlocked and the 2 in the engine room are mounted at...
You cannot calculate hull speed as you have a planing hull or semi-displacement hull. Sportfish usually have a much higher "hull speed" than a...
Really the only thing the pressure does is keep air from entering the hydraulic system. 1 psi of air pressure would work even. Both ways work....
Verrrry interesting. Landed 10:15am, got underway at 2pm, after owner and wife got off, got everything ready, 3 pizzas from the pizzeria etc....
