Looking into getting a MOB system for our 58' viking sportfish. From the research I've done it seems the ACR OLAS system with the base station and...
Interesting and sounds super easy. Problem is I don’t have a cleat that would allow for a reasonably straight run down the pulpit and through the...
Wanted to circle back to the bridle discussion. The mantis bridle, at ~$500 for a 50+ boat, seems absurdly over priced. I was thinking just a...
I generally use the tabs to move the bow down slightly, netting me about 1-1.5 kts at cruise. I generally don't deploy them until i'm up on plane....
The remaining operational tab was fully stowed (I thought of this too and checked after the first instance) No active stabilization, exhaust is...
steering fluid level hasn't changed in a couple dozen hours of running i thought about maybe a synchronizer issue, because i did have the sync...
I just had my stbd trim tab removed - it broke at the hinge and i wanted to be able to use the boat while i'm waiting ~90 days for a new one. On...
Anyone know how tolerant they are of enabling/disabling service during periods of not using it? I'm not using mine right now - wifi at marina is...
i was able to get the pump running again this weekend. it did not come on at first, even with the salon AC on, but after i turned on a couple of...
i'm definately going to verify the starting process for the pump. I really seem to remember the pump coming on immediately as soon as I flip the...
Never had this problem with my previous boat, stored at the same marina I’m at now, but that was only a few months and largely in the winter....
Ok interesting. Seems like the pump has always powered up as soon as i flipped the breaker. But perhaps i've usually turned on at least one unit...
I have a 230V Marathon pump feeding 5 AC units. The AC pump is not "on demand" - it is powered up seperately from the main panel, and runs...
what reading what I be looking for? Or am I just looking for one that is out of family with others?
Copy thanks. I agree there is something going on here that needs to be investigated. I’m wondering if there could have previously been an...
I agree I need to either replace the plate or fill the holes. But in the interim, what about just connecting the bus bar over that ground plate...
[ATTACH] transom zinc
Yes this is a new boat to me - last October. The missing plate was noted in the survey at the time I bought it, which was why I flagged it for the...
I don’t think this is a zinc. I have hull zincs on the transom as well as shaft zincs. The zincs tend to be mounted with an external nut that...
Seems like opinions are all over the place on these grounding plates and I’m trying to figure out what to do. here’s my situation: last...
