I don't think the Prestige interiors are choppy, well I guess they are with steps here and there. But they pack a lot of staterooms and space...
I think on the one boat where they disappeared, it was sitting in fresh water at the time and perhaps the bottom paint wasn't totally compatible...
Yes, but differing from the Euro Motoryachts. Almost all of the Hatteras 60 are built with fiberglass hardtop and are completely enclosed on all...
I really like the Sunseeker 65' Manhattan and it's layout. Would prefer to see the Flybridge hardtop span the entire bridge, but seems everyone...
This. The Sunseeker 63' only has 1 fuel tank. I'm guessing the engines are burning more fuel, that's easy to do at cruise.....an extra 30-50...
Just about any 17.5kw 50 hz uses the same amount of fuel from what I've seen as yours does. In a 63' Sunseeker, you're probably running 3/4 load...
I had this happen on a fairly new Regal at the time, it was a 2005 and in 2008 and Regal didn't step up to the plate to offer the owner hardly...
17.5KW Onan 50 hz MDKDR 17.5 kW/50 Hz 1/4 load 2.5 (0.6) 1/2 load 3.4 (0.9) 3/4 load 4.7 (1.2) Full load 6.5 (1.7) LPH(GPH)...
How do you like the 65's speed, handling and overall quality?
I really like the new 65' Sunseeker. Having run both Sunseekers and Prestige. The Sunseeker is both a better sea boat and faster and built more...
Your best bet would be to go with a new system. Autopilots are not something someone upgrades unless they've had a lot of issues with their unit,...
I haven't had issues with them, and like them. However, I haven't had any long term experience with them, mostly deliveries of new or pretty new...
If they're the stainless impeller ones they used on previous 12v183's and 8v183's I've never had luck finding an aftermarket source for them....
Yes, I feel the same. Kind of hard for a sailboat to get out of the way of a motoryacht doing 20 or 25 knots. At 20 knots, the Azimut is...
I recently replaced 65 24volt 20 watt g iv's. I used the Scandvicks and 10 watt replacement (cannot fit the 20w equivalent.) The 10 watt...
Why repower with another ancient engine? I'd be searching for a set of Cummins 6bta's to repower with or something newer such as 3126's or 3406's...
If there's an emergency, bring the boat to neutral (if it's not too rough to do so.) If not, look at your radar and bring the vessel to dead...
Well. The yacht is definately at fault. There was nobody at the helm, being an Azimut it could've been travelling at 20+ knots and closing fast....
Wow, I never even knew these existed. How much HP are they? What configuration? N's, TIs?
Yes, my first experience with ethanol was with a 15' Novourania with a 60hp Honda we had as a tender. Ran it around for 3 days with the fuel in...
