One other note. I'm not a big believer in warranties. So I'd rather save the markup on things and by something older without a warranty so I can...
:eek: Call me amazed that this is even permitted by NMMA specs or the CG. These should be called fireboats, as in yours will one day be on fire....
That $2.40 per mile sounds like just a different way of stating $95 an hour, plus the IRS milage allotment, for travel time. But it doesn't allow...
The insurance company is the one who will require the captain and for how long. Let me stress however that this doesn't mean that you can't run...
You can run the gen while on shore power, and it will have no effect. You're blocked from feeding the panel from both sources.
You really like that one eh, K1W1? Different cruisers have different priorities, but I'm a firm believer that if you need to count every dollar...
Sounds like a problem at or with the main source breaker.
When moving a boat it's not all about fuel price. There's the hour's fuel burned leaving your course to go in, plus the maybe 2 hours lost....

Sending you a PM with a couple of Surveyor recommendations.
I had visions of people's eyes popping and Cape Ann Towing salivating..:D You didn't mention the width of the canal, but I was picturing a cork...
Don't forget your toilets.
Could she even get into the Dania Cutoff Canal? :eek: I'd think she's just heading for the pier along the port on the ICW. Please keep us posted.
Sounds like the manufacture of those parts probably corresponded with the massive layoffs that CAT went through when the economy faultered....
I worked on a boat with 3208s back in 91 so I know they go back a ways. I could be wrong on the model with the problem though. Word I got was...
You generally find those work horses on trawlers, sailboats and fishing boats. Not glamorous, but they seem to run forever. I'm not so sure...
Considering how many motors they each put out it's hard to compare engine to engine. So sometimes blanket statements are all there is. I've found...
