Do a search as I remember reading about someone who repowered the 46' Bertram SF with Cummins, I forget which ones but they outperformed the DD in...
I've never heard of polishing props underwater, or even out of the water if we're talking about standard bronze inboard propellors. Why would you...
UMMMMMM I'll step in here. Most Captains and Engineers are biased against Italian yachts based upon all of our experiences. Owners may be repeat...
Every older 32 volt Hatteras I've run had a 12 volt battery bank for the generator and electronics from the factory.
I dealt with a motoryacht built in China 2 years ago, they mounted the microwave sideways in the woodwork so that the door was inside the wall....
I would recommend charting both megayachts as well as yachts in the lower price range so that you can have an idea as to which size best suits...

If you are talking about engine oil pressure and rpm's dropping, check to make sure your shaft spins relatively freely and is not binding due to a...
There should be a current pump to replace it. A lot of boats have had F75 pumps. Check with Depco pump..... they have a website.
Navy vessels almost always DO NOT transmit AIS, it kind of would put them at a big disadvantage. Every single one I've passed has never been...
Yeah Yeah Yeah, The Italians make tons of Azimuts, Feretti's, Benetti's, etc etc...... Just because they make a ton of them does not mean that...
