That's what I've got on my boat. V8/800 engines are the very last of the old school MANs, 100% mechanical. Solid stuff, almost as good as the...
I can't remember to have ever seen rod holders at the bow, either. If that's what they are...? Beautiful boat, anyhow. If someone would have said...
I know that in commercial rating it's an engine that runs forever. But it's about the 825 hp version, which was the most stressed, that I'm aware...
No idea about how that boat performs with 715hp each side, but if the choice is between the two engines in the title, as much as I'm not a VP fan,...
Can't help noticing that there's no IPS, on a boat obviously targeted at knowledgeable boaters... ;) PS: technicalities aside, the Delta-like...
Mmm... As well as among SF builders (some of which deserve utmost respect, but not all), there are also express boats and express boats. Just by...
Because they are mechanically complex units. And mechanical complexity doesn't like being permanently submerged in sea water - pretty much as it...
None of these monsters can move around without outrageous engines, obviously. In fact, the P140 has even more power installed. But at least, she...
Not arguing about their look, but that alone has never made any boat go fast. Can they even reach 30kts? I doubt it.
I don't think they will, and even if they would, I'd expect them to ask you to sign a release of liability agreement. See, both Twin Disc and ZF...
LOL, well, that's a way to look at that. By the same token, it also helps making the fuel burn of 900/1000hp engines appear lower when considered...
I don't think it should be necessary to ask anything special to the dealer, actually. If they repowered the P680 with the 1350 instead of the...
Yeah, that would be much better than anything else on TV! ;)
Gotcha, thanks. Still, a remarkable weight saving anyhow. Dockmaster, you'd better wait to antifoul the boat after the first seatrial. The...
I had a look because I was curious to check, power aside, how much the repower will help in terms of weight reduction. Which will indeed be a...
When crossing oceans, planing speed isn't really an option, actually. And in fairness, I don't think Nordhavns, Northerm Marine and other similar...
Indeed. But if you are now oriented towards that combo, you won't regret giving a look also at the Otam 58. Aside from being even faster, she can...
You mean a P62, I suppose? Great boat and pretty fast, but for speedy day cruises, I'd rather sacrifice interior spaces a bit further and go for...
It took me a while, but eventually I managed to find the whereabouts of the right person at Motronica who might be able to help you. Actually, he...
If you are intrigued by the fun of going fast, I struggle to see how any WP could even remotely deliver that. Since as I understand you were not...
