This thread should be pulled, because it's humiliating all of us with human boats. Not later than yesterday, I was crawling into a corner of my...
You should rather ask yourself. If you re-check this post in the nose cone thread, you will see that I only mentioned the master cabin placement...
Pardon? I just quoted what you wrote.
You know, as far as I can tell from the photos, I wouldn't actually call those design completely different. OK, your "office" doesn't have trim...
Not trying to shoot anyone. But I happen to have tried boats like yours, where the range of speed in between D and P speed is literally untenable...
Stern sinking/bow rise? Transition? On a 30m/110 tons boat? Seriously? I'm looking forward to reading the reply... :D
If with a clean hull the boat doesn't reach the rated rpm, overpropped she is for good. Doesn't necessarily mean that 3 blades props per se are...
I'm never envious of boats much larger than mine, aware as I am that larger boats=larger headaches. But an engine room spacious enough to rebuild...
What speed does that mean exactly? If you don't mind me stating the bleeding obvious, the short answer to your question is speed. And the slower...
I know it normally isn't, with twin mains. But am I right in understanding that you did that channel with port engine alone? If so, I bet you...
How come? The boat looks pretty far from having been used enough to wear out an engine... PS: great job going through that canal with just one...
No prize for guessing now who I was referring to! Thanks jfm for your accurate insight.
OK folks, I just had a quick chat with someone who knows these rules in general, and also SL construction specifically, like the back of his hand....
Whoa, three ARs? How come you didn't get a Pershing instead of a Hatt? :D Of course I also have no reason to doubt of a yard manager that I don't...
On second thought, hang on a minute, are you sure of the reason for that job? I find it a bit hard to buy the suggestion that the hull developed...
What captholli said. The trick is strictly meant to register boats longer than 24m (up to 30m or so, in fact!) as if they were 24m, above which...
+1.
CJ, your comments to this thread were, in order of appearance: - one occurrence is hearsay; - another one is due to poor repairs; - one boat you...
You're talking of Celsius, I suppose? 90° C is not outrageous for the coolant, if it doesn't rise further at WOT. And the EGT, is it measured...
Good to hear that, thanks. In my boat, the hard to reach filters are on port side, 'cause engines are on V-drives, but other than it's exactly the...
