For the 2nd time, I'm not looking to sell this boat anytime soon. Of course, if somebody with more dough then brains will make an outrageous offer...
That's a human failure rather then a technology or equipment failure.
Many of the various generator manufacturers (like Kohler) don't actually make their own engines. My 20 Kw Kohler is based on a 4 cylinder Yanmar....
Do you think that one fine morning the Europeans changed every piece of electrical equipment? Of course they didn't. So it follows that 220/230...
Sorry, I meant to refer to 230/400 and 220/380 volts
I couldn't care less whether you call the practitioners of the profession technicians, mechanics or grease monkeys. Personally I use the latter to...
As I used to tell my students: the only dumb question is the one never asked :D European generators will also be regularly 240 volts (or 380 if...
AFAIK 50 Hz Kohlers are either 1,500 or 3,000 RPM and 60 Hz versions are either 1,800 and 3,600 RPM. This is true for many other generators....
You're assuming I was going to remove the existing gauges. That wasn't my plan. The "glass" gauges allow me to see the data from a sitting...
Actually, much of both is spun off from military applications. As for advanced, this technology has been around (the civilian market) for at least...
There's always the old analog gauges on the engines themselves. And if somebody has to keep watch down there then so be it. I've done it before....
But WHY do you do it THAT way?
OK, I have a (recently purchased) 1985 46´6" Bertram Convertible. It has the standard instrumentation on the flybridge (see picture). I haven´t...
We weren't discussing a specific example. Just the principle.
If you're not planning on marrying her, could you introduce me to her? :):)
People in the automotive and construction industries would beg to differ!...
It IS a bad thing when the headroom is just below actual standing room for the vast majority of humans (i.e. less then 2 meters). You get neither...
Exceptions prove the rule The VAST majority of non commercial use boats (and I don't include charter yachts in that category) are WAY below the...
NOT unless this has been designed into the design... And that was my point! Let me rephrase my point: IF (and I agree, that's a big if but it can...
For some reason that site lists the links in reverse order that they are entered in. IOW, I actually listed YF 1st! I could delete the first one...
