Not even Volvo Penta makes this claim. Our 40-footer is doing 47 knots with 2xD6/370/DPH which is not possible with 2xIPS/500. They are good, but...
This is only when you compare to traditional shafts and rudders.
Hi, this boat is not even delivered and very little is known, but it is expected to have a Philippe Starck designed interior. So my guess is...
Absolutely, this is how we do it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alBSYDSO8bg
Not bad, especially as I am deleting more than i am posting..:D But I guess most members don´t like to buy cheap or fake gadgets from P.O. Box...
With cars, such competitions has run since at least 50 years, (for trucks as well). Here we had a young girl winning last year. You have the same...
Have they built more than this yacht..?...
For those who have not seen this kind of ground fault indicators, there are normally two yellow lights next to each other on a panel. When they...
I have not read this Magazine (for years) and can not comment on what this captain was up to, but most captains in this biz know they are working...
I once had this problem and it turned out to be the start motor for a Northern Light genset. The shaft inside had come out of position due to a...
You are welcome, I was overlooking Port Hercule for 10 years so I have also seen some of the worst...;)
OK, these two captains may be two of the best in the biz, for them it is no bigger deal than for Michael Schumacher to handle a Ferrari. Off...
Yes Codger, Utopia is narrow, but still expensive... My landlord in Monaco had a 60 m Feadship and a 40 m Cantieri di Pisa. The captain running...
If I were docking a Feadship between two other Feadships, maybe I would do it that slow....:cool:
I think Dyson covered some of this, but sea levels is an interesting topic in itself. Did you know that the sea level at the Maldives is 104 meter...
Thanks Codger, good reading. I don´t think he is far off in his ideas. Today we are getting more scientists reconsidering their earlier alarms,...
This is just to make her easier to turn around, in a port or when tacking. I have almost the same on my motorsailer.
Maybe, maybe not..? With Arneson drives we will reach the 40 knots cruising speed, but at least here, people have problems running them. They go...
The evolution of the 50-footer continues. Here is a recent rendering where the aft deck will be more liveable. One problem now is that the IPS-850...
Thanks Jannick, great pictures! Not so great design of such an important yacht though..? Perhaps she will look better when completely finished...
