I have never taken care of an Azimut for an owner that fixed or maintained anything themselves. That is why Azimut owners tend to speak highly...
This, or use a portable oil change pump, to pump the oil out of the drain bucket/container as it's filling into a 5 gallon bucket.
That's precisely how I figured it out. It popped the bilge pump breaker.....
In marine engines of the age of the 3208 most of the manufacturer's would recommend a straight 30w or 40w. Multigrades didn't become popular as a...
This particular boat....a late 90's boat, has only about 26 DC breakers......and well many more items than that that should be on their own...
Did your Chris Craft come out of the South Florida area. Namely Pompano Beach. There used to be one here that I guy I knew had back in the late...
It depends on the varnish. Usually the crinkling/gator skin is from having your coats too thick( in mils, not viscosity) or a combination of that...
How about the horn being wired to a engine room bilge pump breaker.....yeah....... they both were wired to the same breaker, yeah it was on an azimut.
The electrical plan usually does not mean anything. The subcontracters never follow it, and the wiring is routed however they see fit. I've even...
From what I've seen the Rotella at least here in the US is not as good as it used to be. One MTU/DD dealer told me on long term engines they've...
Good straight 40W. Although it wouldn't hurt to use 15w40, Caterpillar oil is reasonably priced, so you might as well use theirs.
Read the article above, they sunk their own ship, the Ady Gil because it would lead to more donations and then leaked Diesel all over the Indian...
I'm comparing it to a 1-2' nasty chop in an ocean. Not one that is unsafe, but one where you're in a 30' CC and get your teeth jarred. The 5-7's...
illegal violence at sea- check illegal act commited for private ends- more donations- check.
I'm not getting worked up, I'm telling it like it is. Suppose they were successful and got onto the platform. Then what were they going to do???...
I agree that 5-7' on the Great Lakes are rougher than on the ocean. You have less floatation because freshwater is less bouyant (which is a...
Surviving the leaking defective aftercoolers a lot of Series 60 came with. The amount of hours is remarkable, no doubt. There are also a lot of...
Attempting to sink a ship by repeatedly ramming it, or commadeering an oil platform, when their lives are not directly effected or in danger from...
2100's is a little hard, less hard if they're Naturals.......2000rpms would be ok......but if the boat only stays on plane at 2100, then run them...
That's not exactly good either. The Exhaust temps heat up for a short period of time, cool down to idle, then heated right back up and back and...
