Thanks for that tip. I've experienced hurricanes (as well as typhoons - same difference) but that was on a Panamax box carrier... Even then it...
How much of a warning can I expect? Every single leg of the voyage should be less then a full day (24 hours) so I'm assuming I should be able to...
Similar but in reverse Hi, I'm planning on doing a similar route though in reverse: Fajardo, PR to Ft. Lauderdale, FL. My boat is a 1985 46'6"...
I'm afraid we're getting into politics (which might be frowned upon) but though I agree with your opinion the fact remains that we're assuming...
Painting the base (as opposed to the array/dome) is not an issue... Just paint it if that's what you want to do... It won't affect the radar...

Something like that shouldn't be difficult to do... Even as a DIY project...
Kind of depends on what your frame of reference is :) This was a diesel boat (according to the article I read)... And, you can have the same...
Or not... Possibly the builder envisioned that if the boat wasn't moored stern to the dock (as is common in the Med) it would be boarded by way...
Possibly one for oil pressure and one for oil temperature?
While that's what I do often, in most cases (referring to planing boats) it will NOT be the most efficient speed. In fact, running diesels far...
You can't "get more" HP out of an engine without paying for it somehow. Most likely (with modern engines) you'll pay through reduced engine life....
As for the thread's subject, on big ocean going ships (e.g. Panamax box carriers) it has long been practice to use a shaft generator for "house"...
Solid state stuff (e.g. TV, hot water boiler, galley range & oven) could't care less if they're on a 60 or 50 Hz system... It's only stuff with...
