U R welcome, I hope it will prove effective for you. It certainly did for me so far, though with different engines. But the principle is valid in...
In your boots, I'd take the opportunity to install also a fresh water flush connection. It was discussed in this thread, from post #40 onward. God...
Why, don't you have shutdown buttons at each helm? Regardless, I'm afraid CR is correct: that's not something you can hope to troubleshoot over...
Well, every day is a school day, as the old saying goes. Thanks for enlightening me.
Anything that he can see on a laptop can only confirm that the governor (which is the one and only electronic bit in your otherwise mechanical...
I understand that in some cases dipsticks are not an option, but I guess you must have a pipe connection at the bottom of all your tanks, don't...
In one of the "pages" of the Cat LCD display, there is also the total fuel burnt through the whole engine life. If the owner kept a log of...
Your description sounds like you are talking of an Ethernet switch with RJ45 connectors for LAN cables. If that's what you've got onboard, I very...
Sight gauges. 100% accurate, I'd never trust anything else. Not the most convenient system admittedly, since you must go down the e/r (or wherever...

Aside from not being a very polite comment towards anyone who bought any boat, talk about tarring a whole boatbuilding industry with the same...
In my first reply I didn't notice that you were talking of a longitudinal listing. If it's something that you are considering to cure with 1500lbs...
Blimey, the SF boat in your avatar is MUCH heavier than I would have thought! :D Jokes aside, any tips about ballast placement and best way to...
Actually I did, and commented on it - see post #11. That was before seeing the photos, anyhow. Do you still think that's a likely reason? I don't.
Looks like you have some kind of lip seal, working directly around the rudder shaft surface, which appears to be a bit corroded. So, to answer...
Well, if you aren't a troll, you surely must appreciate why a question like this can come across as such. I'll bite anyway, and try a serious...
FWIW, I also agree that what cleanslate and CJ suggest is a realistic possibility. In fact, that's exactly what I already envisaged some days ago...
