Yep, that`s what I meant.
Just had my port engine (cat 3412E) overheat quite badly over the weekend. As soon as the alarm came up I shut off the engine y only turned it on...
thanks. Replacing the tanks is not an easy job. Will probably do it on next dry dock in about a year. For the moment, I can do with the small...
I did trial it. I think the problem has more to do with the fact that I added some toys on the foredeck plus I can`t fill the fuel tanks very much...
I don`t carry a lot of fuel because of leaks in the tanks at higher levels. I know that carrying those toys on the bow might be a bit too much,...
I don't fill the tanks all the way because of some leaking at higher levels. I gotta get that fixed. I'll try adding some weight on the stern this...
Coming from express cruisers which have a low center of gravity, I did expect a huge difference in Navigation when I switched to my 66SS, with the...
good to know. Thanks for the input.
I wouldn`t feel very good about messing with the hull framing, specially considering that Ocean`s hulls are not the strongest anyways. But what...

Actually, Capt J was exactly right, my starboard tanks have started to leak all over. I`m still using the port tanks, which is OK for now...
I`m guessing I`ll have to take the engines out and everything. Big Job...ughh
seems to have worked OK so far.
Thank you. And yes, awlgrip, and I did have the decks and lower section of the house painted, had to, it was all stained.
that´s exactly what happened. We lost over 400 gallons of fuel to the bilge. Obviously could not pump it out to sea. made a huge mess. pumped it...
Turns out the injectors were OK. just needed clean fuel and the engines to be run for a while. she now cruises at 22 knots and the engines sound...
both the Jet-ski and dinghy wiegh a total of 1300 pounds. That's equivalente to 8 people standing on the foredeck. Would that affect the stability...
O think I might just tow the dinghy and carry the jet ski onboard. The dingy has an aluminum hull and good tow hooks. You're right about the...
Does anyone have any experience on installing an additional cradle on the foredeck of a Sportfish? I bought a 13 foot AB inflatable for my 66...
