You can see the underneath of the anchor and pulpit area, looks like they only put 1 layer of matting and it pulled away from the plywood. I...
What neglect? The owner bought the boat new. Everything is as it came from Luhrs. There should not be anything that needs to be re-bedded or...
Everyone makes a big deal out of "Carolina Sportfish" but the reason they're all lumped into that group instead of a manufacturer or two, is...
Those are excellent numbers and I think higher than you were expecting, I remember you hoping for a 24 knot cruise if I remember correctly. I'm...
I ran a new 45' Cabo to Belize and all over Belize for 6 months. Our normal trip was 73NM out to the owner's island on Glover's reef, fish for...
It's common in the Sportfish world. 54' Hatteras had that option as well C-18 1000HP, C32 1600 hp +/-. 45' Cabo went from 660 HP Cats (in the...
Make sure the yard laps the props to the shafts, also check the keyway fit to both the shafts and the props. They shouldn't have stuck on the...
The props have only been on the shafts 2 months????????
I ran the C18 52' for several days, was just a hard top boat. I thought it went somewhere down in the French Islands near St. Maarten, Guadalupe...
What 38' Fly? Do you mean the 40' FB? Cabo only built a handful of 52' Flybridges, I thought around 5 or 6 total. I ran one with only C18's,...
This as well, so not recommended using the trolling valves if there's traffic around.
Quite a bit, the yachts are all leaning on top of each other. It's too early to know and the ship isn't stabilized yet as far as anyone knows....
They Can't. Most fast SF and motor yachts with a 30 knot cruise or above, cannot go any slower than 7+ knots on one engine at idle in gear. Some...
Supposedly, they lost power when sinking the ship and couldn't get to or reach the manual valves to close them, causing the one side to fill with...
The boat is also range limited. 160NM at cruise if you're figuring on a 20% reserve.
You should be flying if you're going South.
Check with Sailorman in Fort Lauderdale, I've seen several used ones there over the years.
I had this happen within 2 months on a new 2019 62' and water leaking all over master carpet. If the tile is loose and water comes out when you...
No, just that the chillers need more management/oversight and maintenance. I've had to replace insulation on chiller lines on all of them,...
I never found Floscans to work accurately on any boat I ran with them. One always was way off......at slow speeds a lot of times one wouldn't...
