You can't. The hull isn't rigid enough, especially on the hull sides and will flex and move when the cap is screwed/bolted/attached to the hull,...
It sounds normal to me for 3116's. I would think the differences also might be in your actual gauges due to their age. As the other poster said,...
If you run a 32 volt motor on 24 volts, it will use a lot more amperage and create a lot more heat in the windings and it will not last nearly as...
It should in both cases. But it takes 3 tries of running the compressor for 10-30 seconds (depending on how the board is setup) before the board...
If the OP has had to keep adding freon on an often basis, he has a pretty large leak somewhere. Adding a new compressor to a system where either...
I used to run a 32 volt 58 Hatteras Yachtfish that had 2 vaccuuflush toilets that were installed by vaccuuflush, and they both had newmar voltage...
Because it's getting impossible to find new parts for old 32 vdc stuff. Search for a new 32 volt charger, a bilge blower, and various other...
Yeah except your boat has 6-6volt batteries to start a 8v71N, not 2 8D's to turn over a 12 cylinder diesel. In the latter situation you're maxing...
Hehehe, the ends are about $100 each, the boots are $30 each.......in that cord.....if you think that's expensive, look at the price of a 100amp cord.
Then 19-20 knot cruise most likely.
I haven't seen AGM's go any longer in a cool location either. I see them last about 6 months longer than lead acid. Generally I see 2-3 years on...
Bertram indeed used 4x8 volt batteries. Definately have a house bank as well, that way you can parrallel the engine bank with the house bank if...
The 10v-30 volt LED's start at $11.95. You can't use them in a 32 volt system. I need 10 giv's for 32 volt.....
What speed does it top out at and what speed is cruise?
IT IS NOW. I just came across a 32 volt Bertram. They stopped making G IV lightbulbs in 32 volts 2 years ago. The boat has 60 lightbulbs...
Have you checked to make sure the propellor is not spinning the hub? This is by far the largest problem in bow thrusters. I agree that you're...
I've never come across any in all of my travels down there. I had a small boat run out near us on radar when I was at night on a 109' en route to...
It all depends. It depends on the issue and circumstances. If you can limp to the closest port, limp there and get the issue fixed. Get towed...
It can be done and I've seen it done before. How many amps are you pulling off of each 125volt line?
I think it's overkill. It's nice to have, but I'd rather have an EPIRB if I have to choose. You will be at a marina everynight, you can check...
