I'm working some gremlins out of an older FBMY (1990 Johnson Euro Hight Tech) and have run into a stumbling block. Anybody recognize these...
Wow. Look at the reflections on the hull. Appears to be an amazing finish.
Yeah, I watched it last night too. The "overly dramatic" nature of the show had me laughing to myself and assuring my wife that it didn't...
Based on another video that I saw it looks like they might have taken this little trek in order to launch the helicopter.... OR..... they decided...
Part of the CNN article from today: The U.S Navy minesweeper that grounded on a Philippine reef last week has taken on water and sustained too...
I was watching the video feed from Ft. Lauderdale today, and as near as I can tell, White Cloud got herself good and stuck in the ICW. Had a...
Coil resistors are actually used to reduce the current to the coil during running. This promotes point, coil and condensor life. The resistor is...
What vintage and what engines? On old school gassers this problem would typically be attributed to a bad ballast resistor (or ballast wire) or...
Hybrid doesn't make a lot of sense to me since a big portion of the hybrid allure is regenerative braking. Hybrids are great "around town" but...
I hear ya there! But I think we're really talking about a very "non linear" rule here. If you just applied it broadly to all boats, heck, 95%...
Reading this head really broke my heart. I've been doing the responsible, adult, mature thing and shopping 68'-70' Hatteras' CPMY's for our...
No, you're not an idiot at all.... (obviously). My background is not in marine diesels. But since I'm probably soon to be the owner of one...
I'm sorry... but you're implying that all diesel engines are direct injected units.... and that is far, far, far from the truth. But if you...
Marmot, Personally I would love to have you expound on that. You clearly have some information and education that go beyond mine (and Capt J's...
"Canned" means it is one of the factory pre-configured screens. I don't remember seeing a "factory" screen with the odometer displayed like that....
Kafue, I have a few GMI-10's on my boat. I haven't seen that specific display page that you're showing. Was that a "canned" page, or did you...
Thanks for the reply Capt J. This is the type of information and experience that I am looking for. If I'm not mistaken, the basic layout of...
I made this same post over at Sam's Hatteras forum looking for input from owners. I thought I'd repeat it here since we have quite a few...
"Hull Speed" is a calculated parameter based on your boats length at the waterline. Here is some insight: Hull speed - Wikipedia, the free...
Toward the stern of Garcon it almost looks like fire damage...? Or is that just exhaust residue?
