It depends on hull design in addition to weight. I worked on a 75' Jim Smith Sf with a tuna tower several years ago. It's speed at 1950 rpms was...
The thicker you lay it on, the easier it tends to be to peel off in a sheet without breaking apart. Somewhere between 1/8-1/4" thick seems to be...
Chances are when the compressor died it sent a bunch of debris through the freon lines. If there is a filter/dryer in the evaporator chances are...
NO, Hatteras wasn't doing it, I don't think. Although I did see a few where it was only applied to the non-skidded decks and nothing else. Some...
VERY. You'd have to attack the waves at, at least a 45 degree angle and in most instances you'd be WAY off course. In a beam sea a Catamaran...
You mean "MAN Grenades"? The 54' is a GREAT riding hull, why mess with it. Vikings are good too, but not as great in a head sea. I used to...
Ohhh geezzzz, I don't know how that stuff works. BUT, it reminds me of that blue rubbery/plasticky crap someone was painting on boats instead of...
I would check fuel pressure as well, and the accelerater pump on the carberator if it's equipped with one.
Just wipe it down with denatured alcohol twice should remove any of the wax.
I agree, the rest of the boat looked to be very good shape. I did not go inside or look at the interior or above the rub rail. But the boat did...
I think this is WAY too many layers and would cause the varnish/awl clear mixture to be too hard and not flexible enough since the wood underneath...
If you can even get a slip. Most marina's might only have a slip or two can accomodate it.
I saw her, a while ago back in July. She had some good damage on the starboard bow and side. She had a big hole cut in her side where the engine...
What makes you think that a CAT is the way to go now? They ride absolutely horribly in a beam sea, as well as any other sea that exceeds their...
Mercury states that it does not void warranties when used in any of their outboard or stern drive lower units. â– Provides warranty protection...
I meant to say "High Performance gear lube". Mercury designed it for their high rpm engines with higher propshaft rpm lower units. Race...
Ohhhh yes, it's almost a 2 person job to change them. One person to hold the filter, full of fuel up there against the spring pushing it down,...
Add zincs for the stern drives. I'd be very wary about keeping them in the water (stern drives) 24/7, and would have a good diver on the boat...
I wholeheartedly agree about switching them to racors. I don't know which I hate more, the Separs or the old Dahls.......LOLOLOL Plus the Separs...
The galley looks beautiful and very functional.
