I guess you didn't cruise around here very often, CR. Med passages aren't always a bed of roses, also for 590ft vessels like this... o_O [MEDIA]
I'd actually expect anyone with such experience to have indeed some consideration for fuel consumption! :D
The short answer is no, as kev cribb already confirmed. What you see in my photo that you quoted is the water side of the CAC, and its only...
The latter, I'm afraid.
Sounds very annoying. Here's a thought for Judy and her client (considering also the type of boat): why not bring her across the Pond and enjoy...
U R welcome. All the best for the job, and keep us updated about the result in due course!
Coming to think of it, I just checked my files related to a MTU 183 powered boat I was involved with about 7 years ago. She had V12, TE92 version...
Which MTU 183 version exactly? And which heat exchanger? If it's the heat exchanger of the engine cooling circuit that you are referring to, I...
Just in order to avoid confusion, also considering that the above photos are labelled as "Man 800 hp Engines head & valve": Actually, that's not...
If you are sure that she has the 820hp V10 (aka D2840LE401), your guess is correct.
Neither an owner nor an operator myself, but I carefully inspected a few VZ boats, which used to be a very respected builder here in Italy. And...
I see, thanks. Can you recall also the running hours (ballpark) they had clocked by then? Besides, how did you notice the problem, have you got...
I can assure you that they are the latter, because the former never existed! :) OTOH, the listing mistake makes it very easy to google for the...
Out of curiosity, at which age and hours clocked approximately, if you don't mind me asking?
Sorry, correction of my previous post, where the bit in red got lost in typing... :)
+1 to everything CR already said, with an additional warning. The 1050hp D2840LE403 (not 2940) is one of the few "transition" MAN engines, which...
I suspect that in spite of the whim of finding an English acronym for their construction technique, not many people outside Italy know what you...
Not first hand, but during my years of lake boating I came across a few chaps who tried them, only to throw them away shortly afterwards. The...
I would also think that interferences - if any - should only materialize with both radios in TX, which I can't think why should ever happen.
Which is precisely what the cheap and easy solution in my post #13 avoids. Not that I'm pretending it's the best way to skin this particular cat,...
