Is there power coming out of the breaker? Power to the GFCI? Look through the boat and test for power and look for other GFCI's. An electrical...
So the boat wasn't even hauled for the survey and seatrial?????? Who did you use for engine and hull surveys? IF so, what did they tell you???
Check for a GFCI somewhere, usually those outlets are daisy chained from another outlet.
A little, but not what you're looking for (without seeing it).......maybe 20 rpms...... Now if there is 2 decades of bottom paint stacked up on...
The fuel is just a guestimate from the CAT computer. Props are off by 3" of pitch, possibly 4". Should turn 2320-2350 with full fuel/water/etc....
They do get experience in on a ship in a Maritime College, however, a small percentage of that actually crosses over to yachts. There are so many...
Your first order of business would be to learn how a yacht and it's systems operate, how owners use them. So probably a job as a junier engineer....
EXACTLY my point. It had two straight electric inboards and massive bow thruster and joy stick. 2 BMW i3 lithium battery banks, 2 50 amp...
He did, out of MI about 1.5 years ago and he has been enjoying it ever since. I ran it from MI to VA for him last may 1.5 years ago. Great...
The nav lights are clearly on in the picture of the tanker submerged to the deck. The tanker should get none of the blame as it was being...

The boat is not ALL electric if you have a massive diesel generator to power it. Do you know how much fuel a 100 KW generator burns in this pipe...
Pipe dreams and caviar wishes
I can tell you about solar panels on yachts. They put out about half what they're truly rated at and this is on a good day. Solar powered...
I'd stick with 200 hours. Really it's 8 quarts of oil and a filter and like everyone else, I can knock out just an oil change in 30 minutes. I...
I’d paint the boot stripe.
You can run any 80' Planing boat at hull speed (10 knots or 12 knots) and get much better fuel economy than at cruise.......1.5 gallons per mile,...
The tanker was rear ended by Utopia IV. It was being overtaken, so it's Utopia IV's fault.
No, Cabo's are great boats. The 40' is a very respected boat and many consider one of Cabo's best riding boats.
They're good engines, the express did 30.5 knots at cruise, figure 28.5 knots for the flybridge. A little noisier and slower than the man 800's or...
