I highly doubt that THAT thing would make it back. I would have more faith taking the dinghy back. hehehe
Fuel injection has better economy, start ups and better running. But parts are more costly and there are more parts to fail over carberators....
Heating the part with a torch will totally free the loctite as it looses it's adherence properties at around 400 degrees F and actually works like...
It sounds like the diodes or voltage regulator in the alternator is bad. Welding definately could have caused the problem. Try the Onan...
Find a good machine shop and have them cut the bearings that you have on a lathe for the additional clearance that you need. That would probably...
I like Headhunter over vaccuuflush. It seems to hold up better and have more robust flushing power.
I kind of like not having natural light in the crew stateroom. If you're doing a long delivery and doing day and night shifts, it enables you to...
Yes, and it rides nothing like the 54. The center of gravity is too far foward on the 57' and it rides flat and then nose dives into a wave every...

I ran a 2005 57' Bertram SF back when it was new for a while. It was the worst riding 50-65' SF I ever ran. A 45' Cabo would've ate it up in a...

I would recommend CAT C30's or C32's depending on what you're looking for. The MAN's will be a little quieter and consume slightly less fuel....
I don't know exactly as I always run motoryachts and not sailboats. But I know it is over 53 feet, but believe it is under 62'. 56-58' if memory...
He is going to take it over to Bimini to scuttle it next to the concrete freightor that is half broken up over there!!!!!!!!!
According to my experiences in MTU/DD warranty support and cost of maintanence I will never EVER recommend an MTU/DD product to any of my future...
Again, I agree there is not enough info. We need to know HP/model of the 671's and RPM @ 8 knot hull speed. I do know that 12v71TI's that I run,...
I was offered a job running a crew boat in Louisiana about 7 years ago. I forget the details exactly but the offer was very good. It worked out...
Not true. When 28 Searay dealers formed MarineMax, they issued 4.8 million shares at $12.50 per share forming Marinemax. Brunswick then bought...
