Yes, I have seen this happen. I have also seen compressors start running hot when they are starting to go bad. Skip, you really need to...
Marmot, you just like to argue simply for the fact of argueing. I don't protest, I try to follow the rules, the law, and modern technology. In...
Here's the problem with fixing an R-22 unit, or buying a 2010 or newer R22 unit. (If the repair is $750 or under on a pre-2010 unit, I would...
The little house on the top deck towards the rear is what's making her look out of place. The proper canvas or burlap top on the rear of the aft...
Marmot, your key words are: An R22 unit can be fixed as long as an owner is willing to pay for it. Yes and no. Yes, you still can repair R22...
He is planning on installing these on a WOODEN hull. So I would hate to know or find out how you would have to beef up a wooden hull to...
UMMMM NO, do not put R410 in a unit meant to use R22, it is not a drop in replacement, neither is R143 for R12 (but R12>R143 can be done by...
She's beautiful, but I think Sycara IV still takes the Cake!

Generally, you want one generator to run everything, then the second generator is used to alternate generators and you also have a spare so you...
No, but it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to downsize a generator that was sized properly from a good company such as Hatteras. Especially...
I don't know if I'd go with a Phasor. We had one in the 75' Hatteras I ran. It was a good running generator, normal maintanence items were very...
UMMMM, what type of boat? What type and size generators? And how much access is there to install them? I've heard from several people that...
Generally the zip ties don't cut through the tubing from being too tight. The watermaker lines (if they're flexible) will carry a lot of...
