Our 43 has an aft pump and a bow pump (under forward stateroom floor). They are defenatly connected, water flows to the aft pump running and to...
I ran the Ride Off runs as fast as I could maintain control. Ride On I ran at our normal cruise, didn't try to push to the control limits. Ride...
Ride doesn't run in Auto below 10 mph. The slowest we recorded data was 18 kts. We usually did turn Ride back on when doing end of run 180 turn...
Did some rough water testing of the Ride system yesterday. General results are we ran faster, smoother, more in control and easier to drive in...
The ~$5k was labor, adhesive, small bits. Doesn't include the Ride hardware, cables, keypad which are listed on the Ride site.
Ride is inactive below 5 mph (no idea why they don't quote it in knots). Can set desired basline pitch trim with speed from 5 mph to 60 mph....
We installed the SeaKeeper Ride 75 Quad system on our 43 Post over the haul-out season. Today was the first limited on-water run. I'm very happy...
Nice looking. It won't cruise 27 kts. The 27 kts cruise is what Post quoted for 6V92 550HP boats. Bridge clearance with the hardtop is closer...
The Post 44 is the same hull, cockpit and bridge layout as our 43-II Post. The difference is the 44 has two heads, our 43-II has one. Ours has...
Ours are starting year 36. I'll look them over once it's unwrapped to check from inside but am leaning to leaving if I don't see anything loose...
The marina suggested we replace the transom thru-hulls for the cockpit hatch surround drains and the aft bilge pump outlet since they do not have...
None of it was sanded back to bare. Where there were prior water stains (salon windows and bottom of the wall opposite the galley) she sanded...
We (my wife actually) used Minwax Polycrylic clear satin on the interior. It isn't an exact match but close. She sanded and did a light coat on...
The nuts turn to raise/lower the door. I think they would unscrew all the way to separate the door from the captive hardware in the rail but have...
Would be interested to hear if you do.
Interested, roll bothers the cat (she rides on helm chart table). Started looking a year ago. Cost to remove tab pockets is prohibitive. I...
It's only the transom, tab pockets and main stringers to look at clearances and curvatures for various interceptor options. I don't have the...
Our 43 had prior owner installed 'spray rails' that would "catch" angled waves on one side and roll the boat well before it turned-off. I had...
Thanks. I've been using my CAD model to check planned internal component clearances. Around 1" is good.
Does anyone know the bottom thickness for th 43 Post or other? I didn't think to measure it when the thru hulls were being replaced a couple...
