I understand that, but you want a boat that you're going to keep for 5 years and enjoy on top of it all. I understand that installing CATS is...
I thought only Lucas electrical parts came with that?
Most US generators in 40'-150' are 240Volt single phase. You only see 120volt generators on the small boats. 3 phase on larger than 150' give or...
hehehee, welcome to the world of Kohler, a raw water pump for a 16/20lw kohler is around $1200. A raw water pump for a 20kw Onan is around $400.
Most 499GT Monohulled boats are way too large to fit in 99% of the marina's around anyways and end up anchoring, so rip off dockage wouldn't be...
If you want all of that. Rather than wasting tons of money on all of this glass bridge stuff that's not going to increase the resale hardly at...
Yes, the Furuno's are my favorite, but if you're not familiar with them, navigating through the menu's to change or find things is more...
I've been in and out of the Dominican many times. I've also transited close to the Northern coast many times at night and have never once had an...
Look, I've been doing this and running yachts a long time now. When it comes to engine gauges, you want traditional gauges that work when the key...
I agree with your points on a flybridge, don't forget visibility being the main key point. But an express has some advantages also: no ladder to...
Keep all of your engine gauges regular gauges. You want engine gauges to work when all else fails and for them to work all of the time. Analog...
If a product was made to work on various voltages it would be rated that way and you wouldn't have to ask the manufacturer. Just like LED...
People are getting taller and taller. What owner wants to be on a yacht and ducking everywhere and bumping his head because he forgot to duck. A...
You can't. The hull isn't rigid enough, especially on the hull sides and will flex and move when the cap is screwed/bolted/attached to the hull,...
It sounds normal to me for 3116's. I would think the differences also might be in your actual gauges due to their age. As the other poster said,...
If you run a 32 volt motor on 24 volts, it will use a lot more amperage and create a lot more heat in the windings and it will not last nearly as...
It should in both cases. But it takes 3 tries of running the compressor for 10-30 seconds (depending on how the board is setup) before the board...
If the OP has had to keep adding freon on an often basis, he has a pretty large leak somewhere. Adding a new compressor to a system where either...
I used to run a 32 volt 58 Hatteras Yachtfish that had 2 vaccuuflush toilets that were installed by vaccuuflush, and they both had newmar voltage...
Because it's getting impossible to find new parts for old 32 vdc stuff. Search for a new 32 volt charger, a bilge blower, and various other...
