Well W, we must agree to disagree on this one. 'Fiuaskme, how Capasso and his boys managed to achieve some recognition in the nautical industry...
Interesting, thanks. Every day is a school day, as the old saying goes!
A bit rare on Pershing in general, but as I recall Cats were standard, on the 65 of that vintage. Possibly with MTUs as an option, but I think the...
Why, are you aware of any others worth considering?
'Salright, but are you positive that there shouldn't be one? I've seen boats with an identical shaft thru-hull setup, but with a bearing inside...
Fair enough. That's very different from the method I argued against, because you still are in control.
Agreed. Actually, I would be even more restrictive, should I be interested in an Arneson boat. I'd look at OTAM first, then Pershing and Magnum,...
Not a Uniesse, I hope? I half recall CaptJ mentioning that he helmed one and it was a lemon. Unsurprisingly, since it probably was an oddball...
Boat size? Assuming the wish/need to go fast (otherwise there's absolutely no point), my personal answer would depend A LOT on the boat size. I'd...
Yup, those engines should indeed reach 2300 rpm @ WOT. And I agree that a good prop shop should be able to: 1) check the existing REAL pitch of...
I'm not sure the dock hand should be blamed for that. Passing a line already tied to your boat is the technique known as tying the dock to the...
Should sound familiar to anyone used to deal with boats! :D
I wasn't thinking of the seals, but of the bearings (if any). Seals aside, in many boats there are ALSO bearings, similar to those which you...
Yup, because you have the displays configured as metric: boost pressure is also in bar. The OP numbers, port sensor anomaly aside, can only be in PSI.
Positive pressure actually isn't "good", it's a nonsense. I was in doubt about whether the MMDS display reading should show pressure (hence a...
Of course you aren't. But as already said, in most cases (yours included, I believe) the change actually brings an improvement in maneuverability....
Nah, can't be bar, for two reasons: 1) in those display the choice between metric or imperial affects all parameters, so that's bound to be in PSI...
Nice to read that my impression based just on the pic wasn't totally groundless. Considering the bearings replacement and the props checked, it...
Roger wilco.
Ops, yes, I wasn't aware of that rule, sorry. But actually I didn't upload the pics, I just linked them directly from a hosting website which I...
