If the discharge is under water, it needs an anti syphon valve. Even if the loop is high, it's possible for it to syphon back if the hose is long...
Just call Paul at P+L marine out, he is the Arneson GURU in South Florida.
I see more failures with the electric/hydraulic than what you have. IF you are planning on switching to electric pumps convert to the Seastar...
In the very unlikely event the power steering pump leaks, you'll know where the fluid is going long before you lose 7 gallons in an engine.
I had this exact thing happen. We kept losing steering fluid. I thought it was the coolers and they looked a little crusty so changed them. It...
Have you guys actually read the article? The ballast tank bursts in the morning, the fire is in the afternoon, he puts that one out, then there...
Reggie Fountain tried that. He gained 2 mph. However the gains weren't worth the negatives. Boats with inward turning propellers don't turn...
Sunseeker, Princess, Galeon. Prestige is how I would rate the quality of them. With a much larger gap in quality between the first 2 and last 2....
Check under the master floor midship as one was there. The other one was under the staircase area between the master and twin guest room and...
You're wasting your time. It's not going to give you any noticable efficiency or anything. You could try running with the engine room door open....
IF they're rated as a starting battery or dual purpose. If not the BMS (Battery Management System) will not allow them to put out enough...

I've seen a lot of things San Lorenzo has done after the fact to fix one of their multitude of engineering screw ups, at least on the one I deal...
That's cheap, a set of 16v2000's was $76k for an additional 3 years and 1/3 of the hours.
4000 hours is not a lot of hours to have to do rebuilds. The price MTU charges on the M96's is crazy expensive.
It depends on how many amps you will be drawing from the battery bank. How many amps does the stereo draw? Given the price difference between...
It was added to fix a hull that performed improperly. It does give the vessel stern lift while at planing speeds. The same exact way QL, Humphree...
Who is doing the work?
Sportfish guys aren't so thrifty, they run at 80% all day, every day......unless fishing......... :D
Those 16v2000's don't like endless running at hull speeds like the CATs do. When you run them up, make sure to get them to 80% load (critical)...
