The 43 I ran had the Yanmars. Thinking back we clocked 23 gph running mostly at 90% (29kts.) We made Miami to Lindenhurst , NY. 5 or 6 times....
Not surprised you heard crickets from Ocean. Not much they could say without creating liability. I used to run a 43' Ocean SF and I'm surprised...
Thank you. Being retired a few years now I have less to contribute, but I do pop in occasionally to see what's up. My concern for boater's...
This is just a side bar right now, and it should be only that, but I suspect it's going to be a huge crisis in a few months and one that will take...
Anybody had the flu recently? It's been 30 years since I've had it and I remember it vividly. Lost 14 lbs. in 5 days. Not fun. This one is far...
Don't count on the leak being on the starboard side. If your boat lists even slightly to that side, maybe caused by the weight of a gen or such,...
It's generally clipped in place, but if taping I'd recommend 3M all weather tape (the type with the red backing stip.)
Keep in mind that the Post is akin to the National Enquirer. They sensationalize just a bit. NYC does have some of the most strict gun laws in...
I've seen several Carver with that gauge, but not with the aux. tank. How many gals is the Aux. tank? Sounds like just some extra gals. for if...
FREE STUFF Sorry for hijacking the thread, but in all these years I still have trouble finding the Thread Starter. The Mods should feel free to...
Seas take time, distance and deep water to build. So I doubt you'll be seeing any 40'ers there, but 6'ers stacked one after another is entirely...
Odds are the installation was after-market, and Carver won't know. Check the original dealer and/or his jobber. Otherwise a call to Staten...
Don't believe what you hear on forecasts. Get your info from the buoys. Dial A Buoy, and I think these days there maybe other sources....
Watch the weight of the material. Knew of one guy who put in granite and got quite a list.
Cap, you'll need to give a lot more than your name if you want to attract a job. Don't get specific, but tell us you rating and about your...
+1. Not only will it tell you when you've stalled; it'll tell you when you're about to. I've run boats where that's happened. When it's about...
They should run from the arch (see access holes) to behind the helm (although the wires to the DC arch lights may run straight to the switch and...
What kind of boat are you looking to work on? (Commercial, dinner, ferry, private, yacht, SF). That S.S. from Jersey is a pretty good start if...
