Capt J, good to know if considering a boat with MTU S60's. All I have heard about MTU is big $$ for parts and service, so like many have avoided...
Wow, a lot of current draw at 12 volts. So, any S60 should be 24 volt dc and a later version. Did read they made over a million of the...
I would carry them if traveling out of the US and if cruising shallow waters.
Happened to see this http://www.**************/boats/2003/Ocean-Yachts-Odyssey-2991829/Stuart/FL/United-States#.WeyPILpFzMQ powered by 8v2000...
Yeah, where were the spotters and trained radar tech's "on both ship's". Kinda scary being in in a shipping lane nowadays with these frequent...
Read about all that work you have scheduled for your Hatt. Perfect time to move stuff where you want it.

Bobby, I did not mention that we were surveying Cat c12's which are basically 3196's. Tim Caruso scoped the aftercoolers and found signs of raw...
Not Cats best marine engine... get the best engine surveyor that can borescope the aftercooler for signs of raw water leaks and damage to valves...

Hard not to like that 60 Jones Goodell...clean lines. Looks like it has had a good life.
Been there... need good buyer surveyor's to discover the truth!
That Helmsman 43 trawler is a nice rig. Never seen one...looks like a quality build. Twins would be my choice, only because have always owned...
Most of us have probably operate as a one handed crew many times...
