FWIW, that's not a universal outcome. Possibly works well if a sender float is stuck because of fecal matter or other solids, but it didn't do...
The discussion is way above my pay-grade, but... I gather, from what the others have said, that if running the boat accounts for about 5% of the...
Is start-up surge really a big deal? Neither of ours trips a breaker... FWIW, there's some kind of control in our overall system somewhere so...
FWIW, I think self-contained units are simpler. Many of our owners club members have replaced aging units with Dometic "Vector Turbo" units and...
Owner ( perhaps with tickets) CAN be on board an uninspected vessel with 6 passengers or less. It's the bareboat part where owners can't be...
I'm thinking of selling our Rupp "RUPPRIGGER Tournament" two-spreader outriggers, partly because we never use them (they came with the boat), but...
As J said, usually two garden hose fittings, one at each end, easy. To find it, trace the vent line from holding tank to toward the hull...
Correct, you shouldn't smell anything. But the source, and the fix, depends on the details. And many people incorrectly misidentify other odors...
The UK joined the EC (sometimes rendered EEC) in '73. The EU wasn't formed until '93-ish following the '92 Maastricht Treaty. That might not...
I tend to agree. The on-engine flush for us is more like a prophylactic or preventive treatment, in between real cleanings. -Chris
Our system isn't particularly divided by area or location. Instead, the loads are balanced so each leg handles approximately the same amount of...
Ours is 50A/240V but we have no 220-240V appliances. The main supply is split into two 120V legs and everything runs on one or the other of...
We have a Walker Bay, but it's the Genesis RIB. The 10' Genesis (310FTD) isn't what I'd call lightweight; it's around 125-lbs. (Specs on their...
Ours are Cummins, hence the Restore (Fleetguard, I think) product. I removed the hose that runs from the heat exchanger to the exhaust elbow --...
Our engine maker recommends periodic draining/flushing/refilling the closed cooling system. The "flush" product they recommend is called Restore....
Our pump isn't in use when we're hooked up to a dockside water supply. If it won't pump from the onboard tanks... without regard to leaks......
Our dock neighbor in the next slip has a Maxum 4600 SCB. I can't speak much to the quality of the boat itself, but I can say that he has a...
Several owners in the club have that model, seem to like 'em. As with most other production boats, they're a system of systems: commonly sourced...
Tell her the flying bridge is the "bonus observatory" or similar. :) Our "convertible" might look like a fishing boat, partly because it is...
I can tell you about some Silverton models, but better is that there's a very active owners club, most models represented, and it's quite common...
