I agree with the thought process, CR. I think my answer would be to have a fuel polish/transfer system that pulls that unreachable fuel for...
Well, it’s a Dee Troit. Start it cold and someone will dial fire rescue. Always switch on the block heaters the night before you go.
I'm perhaps 5 feet from the end of the array, but an open array, especially 12kw, is putting out a different spray than a 2Kw closed. You're...
I mounted perhaps a foot or 18" above the 12kw open array, and the radar blew me offline. I raised it another 2 feet, and I cleared the radar...
Once to temp, no exhaust issues of meaningful notability, although underwater discharge under load would mask quite a bit. At the dock, it's as I...
Thanks. I think I'm returning to comfortable with that outcome.
Factory settings were 12v71T. The engines were rebuilt during prior ownership and dialed up to the higher rating with that rebuild. I do believe...
Ok... Im 12v71TI, dry turbo, Allisons. Rated at 750HP. I run everywhere at hull speed, typically 1425-1450 RPM at about 10.4 knots. Even if I...
I'm going to hijack your thread with a 12-71 question. To de-tune or not to de-tune. The 750hp is really wasted potential for the boat, and...
I shifted the steering wheel port a few inches, up an inch or so. Made room for a 7" display with the main gauges below the wheel. Pushed the...
I have the same boat, but a few years older. Just repowered to the 60 from an older 50, and that makes a ton of difference in performance. New...
Sent. Yes, Nautica shut down a few years ago down in Hollywood. Novurania is up in Vero. These guys are nearby and formally employed with that...
I used a private service for the replacement. I didn’t use the manufacturer factory. Vendor was located in Vero area and was quite a bit less...
Just love the simplicity of caring for and tying up a tube in the water adjacent to the vessel. Sits low to the water, and easy in/out, and...
Solution: Floating Pilings. But I do prefer a floating dock...
I'm a bit more concerned about China enveloping Russia than I am about Taiwan. That's not to say I'm carefree regarding Taiwan. But the older...
She is being scrapped. https://www. boat international.com/yachts/news/sailing-yacht-eleonora-e-scrapped-in-spain
No worries. Modern electronics are quite sensitive. I put them on a bank of their own to be clear of any feedback from thrusters, house systems,...
Beautiful project, and congrats for doing it!
I bought aged, aluminum, classic lines. I don't regret it for a moment. I shared many of these same thoughts. I bought aged, aluminum, classic...
