Yes, there were additional costs because we had the original style. The water pipes had to be replaced and I believe the housing. In the process...
Whatever
it was a little over 30k just for the aftercoolers. Then PanTropic (soFL cat dealer) ripped us of charging $4k for an oil change. Flat fee they...
i think it is a human reaction to believe you can regain control where as if you shut down the engines you become a passenger. I also think it...
i Dont understand this obsession with the horn. Yes it should be sounded but most captains only have two hands.... juggling engine controls,...
Nobody know how they will react in that situation. It s one thing to have the engines or gears not responding but when they respond in a...
Cables usually give you some warning before failure, of course you need to “know” the boat to feel the difference. A little stiff, a little...
The triton has an article on this accident incl an interview with the captain. The pods not only failed to respond but were acting erratically...

In my opinion this is a lousy set up... the generator battery should be used for the generator only. Some 24v boats uses the gen battery to run a...
The biggest issue will be the hurricane season. In case of a warning it s a lot easier to get to florida and move the boat. if you leave it in...
The C32 is an evolution of the 3412... I loved these 3412Es... bulletproof
I m not sure I see the point. Fuel Flow on a genny doesn’t vary much and can pretty much be guesstimated fairly accurately. That s how I do it and...
Not sure. But your cat mechanic should be able to tell right away
The 1000 hours requirement is just plain silly. I ve put almost 5000 hours on a pair of 3412Es with original old aftercoolers (13 years old when...
