I'm going to hijack your thread with a 12-71 question. To de-tune or not to de-tune. The 750hp is really wasted potential for the boat, and...
I shifted the steering wheel port a few inches, up an inch or so. Made room for a 7" display with the main gauges below the wheel. Pushed the...
I have the same boat, but a few years older. Just repowered to the 60 from an older 50, and that makes a ton of difference in performance. New...
Sent. Yes, Nautica shut down a few years ago down in Hollywood. Novurania is up in Vero. These guys are nearby and formally employed with that...
