Why restrict your search to the left coast? If I were you I'd consider buying one on the east coast if the right boat comes along, cruise the...
I have never seen nor heard of any gelcoat crazing issues on any of the Cabo's.
I'd run them faster than 1800. With Detroits I'd go with where they sound like they're not working so hard and feel the best anywhere from...
I only worked on one yacht that had them. a 160' Delta, I believe they were trac, not positive. They did a great job, we didn't hear them at all...
It is usually less efficient in most all yachts to run one engine in a twin engine installation and creates much higher load factors and wear and...
That is true for the ACERT versions. The OP asked about NON-ACERT 1600hp E=rated C32's which was the figure I quoted earlier.
What type of boat and what is cruise speed at 1800 rpms? Who marinized them? They seem to do best in a boat that is "overpowered" or let's say...
An E rated 10,000hrs or 200,000 gallons of fuel.....whichever comes first.....some may go longer, some may go shorter.....
I don't know about over there, but over here we use big center consoles to fish tournaments if we're doing running and gunning with live bait. A...
Do you fish a lot of tournaments? Because every tournament I've ever run a SF in or fished in, every boat ran at normal cruise speed 80% to get...
The spec you are referring to Rated load and Rated speed, is Wide Open Throttle. I don't know of anyone the runs a Sportfish at WOT, hardly ever.
I thought they did some changes to the hull on the 45' express around 2001 as well.
No, the 54' Hatt computer on the DDEC said it was run otherwise...Most all of the hours were below 80% load. .it blew an engine on survey...
I did the week of seatrials on the 43' with the then new Man 800 common rails as Man N. America was dialing in fuel curves and such. They were...
To me the 48' rode even better, it holds more fuel and the weight aft helped with the ride and mainly the ride attitude. I really liked the 45'...
Normal operations, would be getting the boat ready to depart, letting the engines warm up and leaving the dock to go somewhere. Anchoring as part...
I saw one pair go almost 6,000hrs and the owner did very little in maintanence besides oil changes and impellors. On another boat a 1991 58'...
The 47' is a better riding boat and has better tendancies in a beam sea. However, the 48' was a big improvement over the 47' and 43' both. A 40'...
I ran one that was a 2001 50' Post and it was fixed by Post sometime around 2005 or slightly.
Is it the dark pink or the light pink coolant? The dark pink should be changed as scheduled. They make test strips to test it.....but I'd just...
