There are a lot of systems on a Super Yacht that cargo ships simply do not have. A lot of being a Captain on a Super Yacht is dealing with 5 star...
Not only that, I see the 125 as a more ideal Bahamas/Carribbean boat for an owner with the reduced draft and enough stops where the reduced fuel...
I would highly recommend buying a new unit. Not only are they much lighter. You cannot get many wear items/replacement parts for that 1964 ONAN.
Are you saying that all of the chillers are 2010??? I would find a new A/C guy immediately. Sounds like he just wants to sell units. Chillers...
You don't need to replace the rams as far as I know with Bennetts. I have a boat sitting in salt water with the Bennett indicators that we...
The ones manufactured for/by Volvo were origionally made by QL. I agree that they do work very well. Humphrees is it's own brand and has...
Actually you generally want to see more engine hours in the year range that you're looking at. Diesel engines don't like to sit around and you...
1. Yes you can. You'll see around 1.5 mpg at trawler speeds in a 35'-45' SF. However you might want to call it trolling speeds (some fisherman...
If I remember correctly, the Post hatches were all fiberglass? Find someone that does fiberglass and have them fix it.
It depends on the motor, the sea water temp and the thermostats. I "think" the common rail 1100's I run have 192F thermostats in them, and yours...
Your speeds are amazing and I looked at the specs. It is larger than it appears in the picture. My personal thoughts are it's not well suited...
Yes, go to a Caterpillar dealer and buy the sample kits, they're around $30-35 each. The kit has the bottle to put the sample in, a larger bottle...
Unfortunately those conditions will scale up the heat exchangers a lot faster than usual. They'll also wear out impellors quicker. But it is what...
Thank you for the knowledge.
I'm not sure without seeing her in person. I know the 80' Hatteras well (and the 84' Lazzara) they are very tall with tons of interior space....
The Delta 80 numbers are impressive, but that boat is also a lot smaller in Volume and sheer size and therefore a lot lighter.
That's a heck of a lot of miles. I know the easy and surefire way to get a 40' there. Put it on a freighter and be done with it.
It's been a very long time since I was on one. 140-150 GPH at 20-22 knot cruise......somewhere in that range. 10-12 knots they're very...
Sunseeker loves using Ys for their a/c drain hose and inevitably once a year or twice on this one boat, the same thing happens, it is always at...
Are they multi piston so that each reefer is alienated and if one has a freon leak, you don't lose freon to all of them or the entire system?
