As I explained at least half the marinas on the east coast and Bahamas along with pretty much every private dock behind a home in Florida (biggest...
No passerelle. They don’t work everywhere anyway since some marinas, like this one, have dock boxes right in the center of the slip. since the...
We ve had a few new boats moving in my marina since it has been rebuilt. This morning I noticed all the newer / modern boats have something in...
How many tanks and where are they? Try tracing which tank the fuel was doubt closest to. Where was the fuel? Center bilge? Under one engine?...
Amen. Put over 2000 hours in 5 years on a set with nothing more than oil changes, a couple of sets of impellers, one sensor and one ECU (only...
I ran a 2003 boat with 3412Es. Had almost 6000 hours when sold and ran perfectly. Minor maintenance along the way. Aftercoolers on the 3412s...
I replaced the 25 year VFs on my 53 with Raritan elegance. Straightforward job bumpy just removing the vac tanks and pumps. I think I replaced...

6BTAs in a 48 footer will make it a trawler. I doubt it can get on plane.
The 53 (or 58 yacht fish which is a 53 with a cockpit) has a much better flush deck layout. Not that split salon like the TC.
What do you want to know from the owners manual? Honestly it s going to be pretty useless since it is clear that this boat has been extensively...
the 58s are about 52/53’ at the waterline so hull speed is around 9.3 to 9.4 kts
C series aka 6CTA are 8.3 B series / 6BTA are 5.7 and only make 250 to 300 hp. When the y went electronic they were renamed QSC
Same as what I repowered my 53 with
