Skip, oil cooler gaskets were done somewhere around 400 hours ( can't recall exactly). When I traded her in, the dealer was going to re-do them...
Sea Ray 58 Sedan Bridge. 51000 pounds dry with a cruising weight of just over 60,000 pounds. We were turning 30x33 4 blade pops. At WOT we were at...
My last boat had the same engines. We always saw more smoke (and resulting transom soot) when we ran higher loads. Our normal was 80% load as...
While our L650 Fly was being built (we have hull #9), they were also building, I believe hull #10, which had a much larger hard top extending Fore...

Maybe listings for Vikings that went through a re-fit and/or customization at Rybovich?
Capt. Chris Nebel in Guilford, CT is in range and highly recommended.
My 900 CRM's have had similar issues. Both got new bell housing seals under warranty in 2007, both had failures of the oil cooler seals at about...
