Do you mean it's normal for SFs to "pitch and yaw in any kind of following or quartering sea at various speed"? In a two feet sea, which is what...
Hence the first of the two alternative possibilities in my previous post #42. Which 'fiuaskme is hands down the more likely.
I can certainly see why. I already posted my suggestion on what I have good reasons to consider the best shaft seals money can buy in this...
What I would do at next haul-out is replace both with some seals not built by amateurs. In fact, I can only see two alternatives: either they...
I suppose you mean aside from the one on your right when sitting on the internal helm, which you couldn't miss even if you wanted to? :) IIRC, the...
That sounds VERY worrying, particularly in a new boat. Whatever the reason, I would involve the dealer as Dockmaster suggested, even before...
Interesting. I appreciate that the rudders on the external engines would be much less effective with only the mid one running, but aren't they at...
For long distance cruising at displacement speed using just one, maybe? Just a thought.
Not sure about the OP boat (and not wishing him anything bad of course - rather the opposite, in fact!), but particularly when balsa or plywood...
Sorry, I can't help with what you are looking for, but are you sure of the boat+engines model? I have the very same MANs on my 56 footer, and she...
Well, every day is a school day, as they say. Rated for much more than 15kVA, I suppose? And does that imply running the chiller regardless of...
If it isn't, its plate certainly reminds of one. I'm a bit intrigued by the two large-ish black hoses that look like meant for water, though. Are...
"Operate" the thing is just the fun part. If you're planning to have no crew at all, I'd be more concerned about the upkeeping part, i.e....
Not much to add to previous - all valid - comments. But I hope you don't mind if I challenge your question a bit, 'cause you seem to imply that...
The notorious launch of Bäden/Blood Baron springs to mind, looking at your photo...o_O
Agreed wholeheartedly. I keep saying to any friend of mine who - possibly after going out together with my boat - is feeling the attraction of...
I guess you are thinking of following seas where you can still "ride the waves" at some speed. But when you can't anymore (and in 4+ meters short...
Interesting, thanks. Luckily, in my usual cruising grounds I have zero problems of this type, marina included. But I'll keep that in mind for if...
As I tried to explain in my previous posts, I don't think it's a matter of corrupted classifications and/or of trust in the system. It's rather a...
I had to google for it, but now I see what you mean. Just curious, since you said that they are working well on your boat: did you ever run airco...
