I inspected it for Kafue in Stuart,FL before he bought the vessel along with 2 other 53's. There was another one that I liked better, but needed...
It surely doesn't look like a very wide pass to me. Especially one to be blasting through in the dark at 40 knots.
The new powerplay center consoles are a very good boat and hulls designed similar to the origionals. They're being built by Tom Mason who founded...
I understand that. But, in real life I've found most of all of the electronic displays fuel consumption readings to be very accurate. With the...
I have a customer that had one and it ran in the 60's mph. To the OP, I agree the center console with Yamaha 4 stroke outboards would be a...
No, a 35' Searay bowrider should be fine for what you want to do.
WOW. That is A LOT of bottom damage and I would deem the hull a total loss. Judging by the propellor missing 3 blades, I'd say they were doing...
One would think they could've put the fire out in the time it took to unhook the lines/shorepower, hook up to it, and tow it out. In that pic no...
technically yes, if you're making more power, everything else being equal, your load factor across the rpm range (while in boost) should drop....
Yes, increasing boost will increase acceleration from around 1400 rpms to WOT, should also make more HP. Now, you'll make more HP with more boost...
The PODs all use the coaxial propellors, but I think they're more for maneuverability in docking situations with the joystick and the coaxial...
You should see the interior. I've been in and out of Kafue's boat and it's very nice in all areas and a very well done re-do.
I agree. Also a very interesting place for it to catch fire. 1/4 mile outside of a crowded marina and close to shore.....swimming distance actually.
It depends. I think that fiberglass would have equally destructive results in that situation. I think the cold molded hull would actually give...
That's the other issue with electronic charts. There are no waypoints and magenta track lines (approved course lines) showing which is the real...
I have mentioned earlier, I use paper charts exclusively to plan my route. You get both detail and a large picture at the same time....
I posted that link because it had more and better pictures of the situation.
News is on other sites that it hit a rock off of Fajardo, P.R on it's way into Fajardo and have better pictures....
I ALWAYS plot my course on paper charts ahead of time and then put the waypoints into my GPS. I find paper charts cover a large area AND have...
It should be full scale and even bigger than last year.
