Definitely equal to a business transaction. Gets even more risky when you have a boat marketing company with a line of boats working with the...
Good advice to know who you are dealing with. Use offshore builders and market here, then disappear or do not back their build. Would need to be...
Could be too thick, multiple thin coats is better.
That is a lot of bling! What size copper tubing on the A/h's?
Your right Petit makes great antifouling paints. From what I've read Petit is basically the same thing, high zinc content spray paint. This is not...
Heard several coats of Rustoleum cold galvanizing with 93% zinc works well and cost much less without the "Marine" label . +2 on running the boat...
I don't leave the make up valve on, just keep watch on the pressure, add as needed. Test the glycol mix if adding much water. Finally fixed my...
Huge difference in ID. Did you know they were installing a complete new chiller system without a pump?

On a previous boat had high sodium on a gear oil analysis, the cooler failed the pressure test. Mechanic replaced the cooler and changed oil/...
Wouldn't take much trash to block that drain line. Now would be a good time to blow any trash out of the drain lines if left in place.

Using stainless valves is better but will still condensate if not insulated properly. They are hard to insulate with the handles on. I did not...
The valves look the as ours. Steel handles won't last. Our manual says to remove the handles and insulate well, ours were still attached to the...
I think your right on. Thanks for the leak chasing tip.
Pascal, you may want to check with your mfgr about running water only in your chillers. I agree, we just check the chiller out and it definitely...
Thanks, I'm sure there are many reasons for a chiller failure. Have also heard of sandblasting the metal piping in shallow water. Our a/c tech...
We replaced both chillers in November 2018 because of aggressive descaling the raw water system by PO. Lost one of the new chillers two days ago....
