Glow plug? No such thing to be found, on your engines!
I'm in doubt about what is more sad between the fact that "influencers" even exist, and that they become an interesting subject for an article....
Good point, CR. Though interestingly, it's not how MAN powered boats are supposed to be bonded - again, according to their installation manual. In...
We can argue till the cows come home about what over zincing is - if such thing even exists, on plastic boats. But the hard facts are that your...
For the love of God, don't. The rigorous analyses which you linked so far give a whole new meaning to the old saying "ignorance is bliss".
By running it even if unnecessary, to start with. Or is there any reason why you couldn't? That's part of my normal routine whenever I'm not...
Since you mentioned the Adriatic, in the northern (Italian) part I can safely recommend Centis Nautica. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for...
Beware, you're mixing up different concepts. The engine load is a percentage that can be anywhere from a single digit figure (with the engine...
Aha, I didn't understand that this is what you meant. Dark-ish smoke for a short while, at the moment when the engines are struggling a bit more...
Mmm... Really BLACK smoke, I'd say very little, if any at all. What is pretty normal is some grey smoke upon cold start, which can last anywhere...
Hi and welcome. Your post and your username make me guess that you're talking of a Sarnico 60 HT, right? Very nice boat indeed, just perfect for...
MM, there's no engine management system on your engines, really. The wired black box that you are likely to have on an e/r bulkhead is only a...
CJ, I have two very simple questions for you. First, why don't you actually read the posts, before commenting them? Me: "I've seen a single zinc...
Absolutely. BTW, when I called the risks laughable in comparison to lack of anode protection, it was according to what he wrote himself. But in...
Splash, when talking of boats, I'm a big fan of the "if it ain't broke don't fix it" principle, so I see your point. OTOH, beware: stray current...
Removal and measurement by a prop shop is the only accurate way to measure pitch, AFAIK. Never heard of the system Capt Fred mentioned, and while...
+1. I don't think any half decent naval architect could design those spray rails, let alone a boatbuilder actually invest in a mould like that.
You know what, I suspect it's easier to find a US insurer (to be used also in perspective, once the boat will be shipped back in the US), who is...
Buckle up, Liam! :D
Judy, correct me if I'm missing something, but AFAIK the insurer choice is rather driven by the Country of registration, and/or possibly by its...
