Yeah it's insane. That was also the "ball park" replacement cost I got at the Man booth at the Ft. Laud. boat show 2 yrs back. One of my diesel...
Never did a rebuild but in previous spt. fish did a repower from her 270 hp. to a pair of 400 hp. diesels. Due to the change in the ratio of the...
Who else following what appears will be her final journey South from Pa. ? [ATTACH]
Since my last purchase about 2 yrs back I'm sure I've spent a LOT more when upgrades are included and based on the 42 years of ownership of...
Typically, you should figure about 10% of the cost for annual maintenance. I've found fuel is such a small percentage of my costs it's irrelevant....
LOL. I don't know the pigeons were actually on the boat, but they were seen way up on the upper shed's rafters. Overall was not good for long...
Sort of off topic but there were some years when I used to store a previous boat up that river under a shed for 6 months every year. Seemed like...

I know of a not yet listed 1996 Bertram 46 (not to be mistaken with the older 46.6 model) that was totally refurbished, including repowered with...
I'll give it a shot but I know the black is not stuck in place as it springs back to 28 whenever I turn the center knob. It does go with the thin...
The other one has its plug down. Hand warming did nothing. None of the much cheaper oil filled ones had the indicator needles & I prefer the...
Not tried the "warm hand" thing yet but is that little vent plug supposed to then be pushed back down ??
Purchased new gauges July 24 and just noticed the thin black needle reading about 28 when engine is off. The black needle on the other engines...
Lightning hit a boat 2 homes west of me and wiped out the electric controls on my previous boat. I talked to Glendening about their controls but...
UPDATE: Was only able to access the port transmission actuator. The issue; at least with that one; is not with the linkage nor did I find an...
I hear you re: Detroit's. Had a pair in the previous 38 Bert and although no major issues ever arose with them, became extremely difficult to find...
Called back and said he's not worked on them in "20 years" so not the right guy.
Pressure at 80 psi where I set it several days ago. Wouldn't loosening any lines cause a flood of fluid ?
How old were they at rebuild and who did them ??
Thanks. Woke him up. Said will call back. I wish I found a clogged screen but there was none.
