I guess when I looked at the boat and the electronics I assumed you could take this boat cruising, not crossing oceans, but maybe the Gulf. Leave...
It is listed as Grand Banks Heritage. I was thinking that a 45# plow anchor is marginal on our 38' boat. But I like to sleep while at anchor....
One of the brokerages in our marine had an open house this past weekend and they parked this 47' Grand Banks in front of our lowly 38 footer....
"I should also note that I was in the marine business for 10 years and among various boat repair jobs, I installed and maintained customers...
Sometimes if the fuse holder has lost some of it's grip it will cause the ends of the fuse to overheat. I've had it happen on glass automotive...
Actually all three return to the tank so you have to combine them and then go through the flow meter. Probably an installation issue when the boat...
Probably not one found in real yachts, Ford Lehman SP225.
Beats me, I didn't design the engine. There is return from the engine mounted fuel filters, a return from the injection pump and a return from the...
On our FLs there are three return lines, so they have to be combined to measure total return flow. Last I looked they had no broadcast or...
It was a 4.236, maybe 60 or 65 HP?
A apparently when our engine was built in the early '80s they used whatever parts they had left over. So you could have a combination of Diesel...
No to both, we like to anchor out so we need the dinghy and the water. There's a 75 gal tank in the front that I keep isolated and run off the aft...
We had a four cylinder Perkins on our sailboat. One of the local diesel shops told me that that particular engine was built under license by Mazda...
I did find that the reservoir level goes down when the down button is pushed and the level comes back up when the up button is pushed. So I'm...
NYCAP123, yes, aft cabin with 150 gal water tank underneath. Don't really see good way to move the cabin though. Capt J, I thought the two...
Compromise, it's a boat but not sailboat, is a 38' twin cabin TT. Twin 225 HP FLs. I have a dinghy on davits on the back, approximately 150 lbs,...
Skipping over the button issue, this is exactly what is happening. But I would still feel better to actually get eyeballs on them. As I said...
Actually I did a quick check this morning before leaving the boat, just couldn't leave it be, and found that using my "calibrated" yardstick depth...
The tabs are under the swim platform and it is very difficult to see if they are doing anything. When I first filled the reservoir and ran them I...
Good point, but after filling it and running both sides up and down several times, the fluid level went down when putting the tabs down, and came...
