This thread can't have gone so quiet ... What, is everyone waiting for 999 so they can claim the millennial post? Here ya go. ;)
In a standard small boat setup the engine mounts take the thrust and transmit it to the hull. The thrust bearing in the gearbox transmits the...
... that anyone on this planet would think that a fixed pitch propeller can generate enough thrust in reverse to break engine mounts designed to...
Propeller size has nothing to do with it, and if you have found somebody who makes a non-cavitatiing propeller I think there are a lot of military...

Ah so ... it's a nice looking boat, thanks.
Does it say "as is where is" ?
While it is not my wont to jump to Henning's defense, you are a bit off base my subsea sniper. Several submersible vehicles use a ballast...
Is that the gas station that was built in Ketchikan? Did they tow it down? I was there when one of those things blew up way back when. That was...
See what I mean, there isn't anything Henning doesn't know and it took him all day to find the reg for you. ;)
The CG needs to get some of those San Diego trained RIB drivers and turn them loose in that area. :(
You're new at this aren't you? ;)
Regarding the statement by Bertram that there was a significant tropical storm with high winds .... I wonder if they have bothered to look at the...
But it takes considerable experience working with the regs to be able to drill down to the relevant sections and most people who don't work with...
I think you might want to look at a book on ocean towing and see where a tow line spends its time at sea.
I wish there was a shaking head smiley ... For a bunch of Sons of Magellan the level of knowledge of the regs that control how you make your...
