I concur the reliabilt injectors are not good. I had a 12v71 TI rebuilt in 2008. All 12 injectors were reliabilt. At 150 hours and 3 months one...
I have never worked on a yacht with a chilled water system that did not loose coolant water. A real bear to trace.
After seeing the pictures, that's an easy bridge to take off. It should take 2 guys 2 days to get it loose and ready to come off and a crane to...
While moorings are definately nice, marina's are nice also. I have anchored countless times and not worried about dragging anchor. Most of the...
I never go into a small or narrow channel at night. I will either slow down (gps calculates your arrival time based on speed), or anchor outside...
+1. Also an addition of Exhaust Gas Temp gauges on the engines would be a great help and you could keep them cruising with the best fuel/air/load...
I too have worked with Tess electric on a few boats and they do great work.
Yes, a good cruising guide will usually tell you if moorings are available or not. I cannot comment on Harbor Island as I haven't been there in...
wipe superlube grease on the gasket every 3 months (where the ball opens, with the ball open) as Sealand recommends it and it helps the gasket...
I don't understand why they changed blowers. But, it could be a turbo that's not right. It could also be a cylinder with low compression, it...
Brunswick already beat you to the last one. Any Brunswick produced yacht has so many warning labels all over the helm and elsewhere on how many...
8v92's normally go 1800-2000 hours in a SF, as the other poster said, if you can get them to turn 2400rpms at full throttle, they'll live a...
I would get a quote to replace the mufflers by other people in addition to the yard it is at. Whether the mufflers are replaced in Mobile or...
Heyyyyyy speak for yourself. I was smart enough to get rid of my last personal boat a long time ago. I just get paid now to fix and use other...
I have run yachts with them. Cannot tell you what brand. The yachts I've run, had them mounted/installed in the lazarette and not the engine...
Do they produce electricity properly? Is it at 240 volt/ single phase/60hz? Do they run good or need rebuilds? Any idea what model engine?
I do not know how running a dry stack would effect the computer controls of a MTU. What I do know. I know that the fuel curves on the DDEC/mtu...
Speaking of which I just loaded 2 yachts going to China. They were a late 90's 40' Searay SB and a late 90's 46' Carver FB both with diesels.....
I have found over the years that biobore is a great product at killing the algae, but does not dissolve it and it all ends up packing your filters...
I am not enamored with any of them. I have run a Feretti, sunseeker, and Viking in that range. Personally I'd go with a 64' Hatteras. However I...
