Here is a photo of my CAT gauges during sea trials at WOT. 2357 RPM/34 Knots [ATTACH]
Just checked my prop scans from the service on my (4) blade Federal wheels back when I had the Cabo out of the water in November 2022. Initial...
My props were re-pitched last time and as I remember my re-pitch numbers are very close to what your running. During my sea trial after going back...
How long have you had your Cabo 40 X? How many hours on your C12s? What prop are you running now?
I ended up having my Federal wheels adjusted. Wildcat Props reduced the pitch slightly which reduced the load on the C12 CATS and virtually...
I have a Reverso Y that feeds two dometic air conditioning units. Seems to work well however I don't like where it is located as access to the...
My C12 CAT's are white. I found some spray paint at Home Depot/Lowes that is a very close match to the Caterpillar white and it holds up well...
Seeing Woodward governor controls on this diesel generator took me back to when I was at sea. Many of the ships I was on had Woodward governors...
I have the no load RPM set at 1854. The generator has a Woodward DPG governor which worked very nicely and provided good speed control. Full...
So in theory, when you do the math, to set no load frequency per the tech manual (61.5-62 Hz) my no load RPM should be 1850 - 1860.
Thanks for all the input guys. More research is in the works. RPM was checked with a hand held RPM meter. [ATTACH]
I'm not intending on messing up a good running gen-set, however I am planning to do some more research on the voltage adjustments with this...
I have a 2005 Westerbeke 12.6BTD with 3,100 hours in my Cabo 40 convertible. The generator runs great! Starts up every time with out a problem....
Cap J - you are correct as well. I toggled through different screens and the fuel tank level percentage does show up on the screen with other...
Capt J - thanks for the input. I'm heading to the boat this weekend and plan to further troubleshoot the connections and or the sender. I have...
Look at the photo of my STBD MFD upper right it is showing percentage of fuel level (77%) and is titled Fuel Level on the MFD. Fuel rate is...
Update on my fuel level gauge on the bridge. With the assistance of Carter CAT here in Virginia we found the fuel gauge displayed on the STBD...
Sure - these are for 2-1/2" shafts.
The 38.4 Kts on the GPS screen shot, is that your 48 with the (4) blade Veems?
Attached is a 45 Cabo express that switched to (5) blade Veems and experienced a substantial performance improvement. Veem quoted a 24X32X5...
