Good for YF for editing out the insult rgsuspsa tried to throw. Unfortunately they came across on my phone uncensored. I'm not real thrilled...
Very interesting. Do we have any idea whether the El Faro carried a VDR or an S-VDR?
From what I understand there's heading, speed, various mechanical readings, and probably most illuminating, voice recordings from the bridge.
That seems to be a direct contradiction to: Investigators must now search the sea floor for the recorder, the ship’s equivalent of a black box, a...
Indeed. The pressure at 15,000 feet is 6,502.72 psi. "Hopefully this won't lead to controversy." Let's everybody try to stick to FACTS...

P.S. That's why I suggested a PM to Fish so authortative answers can be gotten. He's a Volvo guy, and we used to have another Volvo guy here, I...
I have run many IPS for a local dealer, delivered many, and taught quite a few how to use them. I like them a lot. Don't have much experience on...
Same everywhere, but be cautioned that there are a lot of people (agencies) with their hands out looking to feed off your desperation and who will...
Networking is you best bet. Pound the docks and get to know some crews. Boat shows are a good place to make initial contacts. When I first...
Ah yes, the anti-Volvo, anti-forward facing prop argument. Is fishing line more likely to work it's way into the seal of a forward-facing...
Those seals going bad from fishing line would be the same with any IPS, Zeus, I/O or outboard. They're all vulnerable to that. However, in 59...
Not sure where your12 V fuse box is located, but it's often right near the helm, generally a little out of the way like low below the helm or a...
You don't need an electrician to look for or even to change a bus fuse, or even to reconnect a wire that's worked its way lose, especially when...
Actually it's neither dishonest nor evasive. It was accurate. Take a look at post # 19 where he said: "The other nasty stuff in diesel exhaust...
Sounds like you have an in-line bus fuse blown or lose. It would be in the common line delivering juice to the all the bulbs.
Not snotty conditions, but a full on gale (which on Superior gets way past snotty), but the two theories actually work together. Whether she...
Hadn't heard that. My understanding was that he Edmund Fitzgerald was thought to have risen on that wave and broken in half due to the normal...
You might want to check that. It was just discussed on a different thread you were on the other day. I learned something new to me. You should...
