X2.. Soap it sown, let it sit a few minutes, rinse it off. Works pretty well, but not as cheap as of the other solutions provided here.
You stated that you had a fuel contamination problem at some point and that you remedied it. I assume you replaced the fuel filters, both...
Thanks Ken. That is exactly what I am hearing.
The boat already has the Atlas system. My understanding is that it is a very expensive operation to add a 3 phase line to the dock, so if the...
That answers the question...assuming that is the same system that is installed on the new boat. Thanks.
Can you power a boat wired for 3-phase power from a dock that has only single phase? Does an Atlas system solve this issue? My boss is thinking of...
Looks like an older (mid 80's) Broward.
The sailing community uses SSB quite a bit. It is an excellent way to receive weather forecasts when beyond VHF range. In addition, aside from...
x2! Best method I have found in FL. It is what all of the experienced yard professionals recommend.
many policies exclude canvas and eisenglass...does yours specify that it is covered?
The difference is that MSViking had 1550's. I am looking at 840's. Albeit a big difference in cost.
That may be the difference..seems like a lot more for just 4 more cylinders though. Thanks for all of the responses. Has anyone had any...
Not that bad considering that some pumped up detroits need complete rebuilds at 2000 hours.
Where did you $22k from? I think am hearing $11k total for both engines from others here.
Was that $12k for both engines? That sounds a little more reasonable. Was that the first major expenditure for maintenance in 2000 hrs?
I have downloaded and read the maintenance schedule for these engines and I can't see how it could possibly cost that much. According to the...
I just got another estimate for a survey that includes the same items for $2800. That sounds a little more reasonable. I realize that parts and...
The $5500 survey quote includes, external visual inspection, oil samples engines and transmissions, bore scope inspection of cylinders, injector...
Wow, I just got a quote from Marine Diesel Specialists, they want $5500 for the survey. I think I will shop it around!
Thanks..Care to share what they charged? Did they bore scope and do fluid analysis?
