Usually nearer the stern, because usually that's where you'd board the boat. Can vary. Just keep using the Reply button. Do it right or do it...
Unless you're a Brit/Aussie/Kiwi/etc... and it's a sailboat... when it's only 40'60' long, it's just a boat. :) Can't speak well to your design,...
Perhaps it was just about presentation and order. Specifying an upfront "sea trial" in your offer -- prior to your sequence of "wet survey in...
Yeah, there IS that... -Chris
Ref broker, sure. But if he wants to sell boats -- not just list boats -- he should likely be advising the seller about what's necessary to get...
Seems like now that you know more about what to expect -- and seller and broker hopefully are learning from you -- could end up being fine once...
Compare the Carver 32 Mariner to a Mainship 350/390. Another "Chevy." Slightly larger, but not hugely so. Single or twin engine versions...
Agree, but OP mentioned seller restrictions... -Chris
Somewhat dependent on how much money you have to throw away... when you create a Frankenboat. If you repower with enough diesel to replicate...
I guess Autohelm predates our SmartPilot, then... -Chris
The Powerboat Guide says cruise is 24-24 kts. I suspect that's a typo, though, maybe with 675s in the 560 I'd WAG more like 20-22 kts for typical...
It's generally not cost-effective to swap gas for diesel. It usually needs to include gears, shafts, genset, sometimes tanks... Outlier...
Circa 2005, I think the Raymarine AP course computer would be a SmartPilot, and the ST6000 was just the control head. If that's semi-correct,...
Probably not old gas in a D12. Certainly fuel filters might benefit from a change. But the haul it/clean it thing is indeed a thing. You do...
With the right combination of fittings and valves (Groco SSC, for example), flushing can be fairly simple. Snap on a freshwater hose, switch the...
Ummmm.... consult your AC manual? -Chris
Can you identify the windlass maker? Model? If so, have you asked the manufacturer? Or can you trace down the typical systems that boat maker...
Probably meant can't. -Chris
Nice boats, but.... for a liveaboard situation it'd probably drive me crazy (crazier) in about a month. Or maybe even two weeks. Imagine living...
It's a good example... but I can think back about all the stuff I had no clue about when I decided we needed a boat. And I can think of stuff I...
