If you're heading due South and that close to the beach (say parallel 1/2 a mile offshore) you would not see any lights in the background, at high...
Yes, the larger ones have lots of issues too. Some has been rectified by the crew on the larger ones, IF the boat has had a good crew. But some...
I've run some sets of 12v92's that didn't smoke on cold startup. But it's boats that were used, used often and run at cruise often.......a week...
I would highly recommend a Captain for a year at least. There is a lot more to just driving a 66' Sunseeker (which would be a great choice given...
Hydrofoils usually have a ton of draft which limits them in MANY ports. And also if the wave height gets over a certain point, they can't go out...
They must have been doing closer to the 50 knots, unless nobody could swim. It's a shame, but tons of people think they can run really fast at...
I got a 16' donzi after the whaler then an 18'. I agree it was mainly a lack of training. But kids will be kids. Kids will do a lot of stupid...
The town manager reported the news in an email (I guess to the newspaper). It didn't state that he got an email from the insurance company....

On either set of 92's make sure the coolant (G93) or water additive (novakool) has been changed every 2 years or 3 years at the very very most....
Well any idiot that would give his teenage son permission to use a $1.4 million yacht deserves the outcome.
It's true 1200 hours on 20 year old motors is only 60 hours a year.....or some years of just sitting, it can be very bad also. I would find out...
I agree with Bamboo. I wouldn't feel it prudent to pull out at 4:30am in the dark, or into Cape May at 9pm in the dark. UNLESS it was like Port...
Just drop 1" pitch when going to a 4 blade. But they've made a HUGE difference in performance on every boat I've put them on. The aluminum one...
The absolute best thing I've ever done to inflatables is put a 4 blade propellor on them. It makes them get up and stay up on plane so much...
Construction and fuel burn is going to be very very similar between the boats, you're talking about a 2ft difference in length. Not sure on the...
It depends. If someone reputable did the rebuilds they should be good to go. Every Sportfish I've run with the exception of 1 of them, needed...
