I've run several Hatteras' and other yachts with extensions. A 14' extension is quite a bit on a boat that size. Most extensions are no more...
I think he was referring to the size mostly. Most of the ones I've seen, about 90% of the time, will only hold 3-4 mens t-shirts......or 2 towels...
The 2002' or newer 63' Hatteras MY (then became the 64') sounds like it is ideal. It has the dinghy on the FB, cruises at 22-25 knots, has no...
One thing you haven't focused on here is, How are you planning on using the yacht? What area are you going to be cruising in? How far do you...
I'd 3rd staying away from the Italian yachts. How about a 64' Hatteras MY (later model)? You are going to have a little learning curve when...
I've run 1 of them that came down from Wisconsin (new boat), it appears the delivery captain may have run her a little hard in rough seas....
Don't forget that leaking manifolds and risers kill more gasoline inboards then any other cause. Check the exhaust ports in the cylinder heads to...
I'm sorry to hear about the mishap. But, it's precisely why a Captain is cheap insurance.
Anyone have a link to a fuel burn chart for VOLVO KAMD300s at various RPM's
If you want to see birds, turn the "tune" up (off of auto), then start turning the gain up. I've won several tournaments and fished many, we...
Is the radar angled on top of the hardtop at all? Is it possible that the radar is picking up 300 degrees of atmosphere (with the gain turned all...
Maybe that 10,000 number is total, and they are split between 3 shifts? I don't think anyone will agree that our Mexican border is all that...
Well it would make a great houseboat!!!!!!!!!! hehehehe......As long as the marina will allow you to dock it there and you come and go from the...
A quick call to Hatteras Yachts tommorow should get you the answer you're looking for. I used to run a 1979 58' Hatteras YF for several years, and...
I too would want throttles in addition to gears. You're looking at about $250 more for the throttle cables, and the price of an additional head...
The Westerbeke line at least in the pre-electronic ones dating back a few years. It's stamped right on the generator and it is advertised as such...
I was the full time Captain and had a fulltime mate on a 45' Cabo once upon a time. I'd hardly call that a yacht, but the owner wanted a Captain...
Alexseal paint seems to have strong recommendations in the industry, albeit a newcomer to the industry. Not as widely available, but companies...
There most likely is nothing wrong with the engine. The application is wrong. A 250kw generator should have at least 200kw (or more) of power...
You want to compound the gelcoat of the area near the arch to get as close to the true gelcoat color as possible. A good paint supply place can...
