One way to troubleshoot which I considered but the boat sold before i had to do it, would be to hook up a dock hose as close to the tank pick up...
Again not familiar with super yachts but on smaller boats like the 110 I run, insulation is much worst than a in a home also, under a home the...
It depends on the boat and the location. It s all about what the charterer wants so if you want to cast off as soon as you get on board, why not....
Everything. Air con, refrigeration, etc. I don’t know about big superyacht but to give you an example, even my little 53 footer uses about 15kw...
Let me guess…. Sailboat ? :)
it s about 40’ from the master head to the forward holding tank on my 53, no problem with the Elegance
The downside of VFs using less water is that the stuff is more concentrated and will result in increased build up in the hoses. That happened on...
The only reason to pull the whole thing on deck to replace duckbills is to bill more hours to the customer. I ve replaced countless sets of DB...
I didn’t change the hoses so same size as VF but with the elegance you can use smaller hoses, 1” I think.

The very low hours scare me…. Salty humid air coming in thru the exhaust for weeks can do a lot of harm. that said, get a quote on shipping...
20 hours a year? That’s a big concern… even by north east standards that s a lot of sitting which means corrosion. 425 hp out of the smaller...
My 53 had been converted to VF in the late 90s when I bought it in 2003. I kept the 3 VFs till about 4 years ago. Yea they could be a little...
once again, correct. The survey is yours and the surveyor is not allowed to give it to anyone without your consent, but even your own broker If...
Sadly these items are pretty much what you ll find on most boats for sale. Yes the seller should accept an adjustment of $5 to $10k but the next...
Yes, a survey is always property of whoever paid for it, in this case the buyer.
I be had tides on a boats i ve run as well as on my personal 53 Hatteras. Pretty much trouble free. If they drip a little it s often because of...
Personally I don’t trust Pex and much prefer copper. And yea, Sharkbyte is the way to go. I redid my all the plumbing in my boat about 5 years...
Cat ha s this is their electronic controls. Tap the up or down button and move RPM up by 50 RPM per tap all sync’s. not that useful
At this point of everything else is clean, an aging electronic issue is no big deal. Try to get the seller to have it fixed or request a token...
