47 is fine on a boat that size but not on charter where 12 is the limit per US law. Exceeding the limit is unfair to the operators that go thru...
Bareboat charters are limited to 12 pax plus the charterer. I guess anything is possible but I doubt the USCG boarding would issue citations...
I really didn’t like the original Navnet but the the 3D, even though it is 10 year old, is pretty user friendly at least the Black Box version...
Our navnet3D black box has been acting up crashing or not starting uo at all. Sometimes it works fine for a week, sometimes it crashes throwing...

Repowering with QSCs factory recon is going to be a lot more than 100k by the time you redo the engine beds, shafts etc. but you will get more HP...
The lack of use indeed makes it hard to justify a full repower. A prop shop can do the shaft safety factor calculations for you, you may be able...
300GT is above my pay grade (litterally) but considering how yachts size has increase in the past 20/30 years it is certainly times for the US to...
Get the best shafts you can get which is AQ22HS. Dont take chances... For trim tabs Bennett recommends 1” per foot of LOA (12” width). I went...
