The curbs aren't very big, but the Marines sure as heck are! Good job IMO.
One of the boats I manage has the Mercruiser 8.1liter Horizons, the motors are 2003. They had the exhaust manifolds changed April 2007 and have...
All good info. To the OP, How do you plan on using the yacht and how much usage?
Dirty fuel filters, clogged air filters could also be a source of not achieving rpm's.
Here is the KVH coverage area maps and will show you how far you'll get each service based upon your dish size and provider: ie Direct Tv, Bell...
I was running a boat for someone that was a Volvo dealer yesterday. He told me he's been having a big problem with water getting into the drives...
I agree you don't get as thick of a coat with the foam brushes over a bristle brush from my experience, at least with varnish........ The chip...
