I assume your looking at the one in Savannah. I would consider it a long weekender at best for a couple at max. That engine box / deck turns me...
I did not realize the big impellers were interchangeable between Shetwood and Jabsco pumps.
Hang on, soon enough, thousands of calls will start coming in from another country; It's not to late to buy that engine warranty for your old...
Interesting so many folks bring up this "dead crank" thing. Bunk.. Not all boats have the starting switches set-up this way. My Bertram and many...
J&T, Covington, S&S, DDC, and others ordered the 6-71TIB from DDC. Base 6-71TIB = In-line 6-71, Turbo, Intercooled, Bypass blower. Past the...
I see 6-71 TIBs. I luv these engines if properly maintained. Emergency shutdown flappers are not connected to a remote cable. Lots of spray...
Naw, just start her up, by the time you get off the dock, your ready to water ski
What hp tune on the Detroits? I remember an ole Post with pancake 6-71s. Post kids are cool. 71s rule.
I can not remember the vendor, but we used spring loaded scupper covers on our old BalckFin (Cary copy, late 1980s) Also installed flush marleon...
Please do some searches here on YF. I don't think many here like any of the L class no matter what power options were involved.

Thank you for your update Brother Mapism. I have not been around the MANs for a while now. I was just SWAGing on the extra HP. I kind of had a...
I remember working on a 58SB with the V8/900CRMs. Ahead of the port engine was the Vac/Flush tank and water heater ahead of the stb. I remember...
Alloy hull will last a lil longer not connected with other boats on the same dock. Still, I hope your survey included hull plate inspections and...
The green wire in the shore cord gives the cord a fault current path. In some designs, the IT case is grounded to the shore. Follow the lead in...
This is correct. Isolation means Isolation. Your ship's bonding (green wire) is not connected to the ship's bonding next to you or anything up the...
I can only figure the idea is to (maybe) reduce any stains on the hull under the the thru hull outlet. If this is not a problem, revert to one of...
It is crazy how the older air coolers last (and keep lasting) so long and the current air coolers are junk and require replacement on a schedule....
I have decided to finally upgrade our Bertram's electronics. Ships equipment and a room full of spares needs to sell, hopefully quickly. All of my...
