Yes it's unusual. But maybe not. I know whaler on twin engine outboards. One engine charges it's bank, and the other engines battery bank is...
Are you using Volvo zincs exclusively and changing the zincs when they get to 50% or below? Are you servicing the pods annualy? Through a Volvo...
I don't know anything about them, but given the draft and IPS, they seem very similar to a Prestige and would expect them to handle as...
Due to the way the motor is bonded and the fact that the heat exchangers and aftercoolers are isolated with large rubber o-rings.
They are based on Zues because Cabo was owned by Brunswick and Brunswick requires using a Brunswick powerplant and owns Mercury etc. therefore...
The older Cabo 40' express (or FB) 800 mans with shafts @ 80% load 32 knots cruise, 63 GPH 600 cummins ZUES @ 80% load 33 knots cruise, 45 GPH...
Get a multi-meter. Unplug the cord on the boat side. You should get 220-240V between the 2 L shaped circuits, and 120v between each L circuit...
Just the three pole connected together breaker as seen at the very top of the photo.
On that boat, Luhrs uses a 240v-50 amp cord, and simply splits the leg to 120v on one side of the panel (left), and 120v on the other side...
One leg on your shorepower cord isn't getting voltage on one of the legs would be my thought. 2 of the legs are 120V, third is a neutral. 2 hot...
To answer both questions. I've always seen C30s rated at 1550 HP. I've never seen whisper wall falling down, especially on any Hatteras 80' as...
It shredded gears. It was being delivered back North on a delivery, no owners/guests on board, no water in the oil. Stuff breaks.......I would...
By using that theory you could also state that the Oil pressure gauge is useless too.......because a motor always has pressure, unless it's about...
The listing fuel burn numbers are wrong. At 1200 rpms you'd be at about 45 GPH combined. 80% load is 112 gph both if propped to achieve WOT....
The IPS boat I dealt with, did some traveling. To and from Key West from Baltimore, Exumas, etc........it went almost 5 years before it had 1 pod...
Cargo below could be **** near anything. I would think something dense and heavy such as steel. The cargo had to have enough room to shift...
I also had another oil sample that had high coolant. We weren't losing a lot of coolant, very little actually, almost not enough to notice but...
If anything would survive a fall off of a freighter, that boat would be a very good pick. A fiberglass yacht OTOH would probably be a disaster.
Yes, I had one with a similar situation captpkilbride. Same/similar scenario, all of a sudden really high copper, and engine was almost out of...
it's actually not hard to remove 5200 from a flat stainless rub rail or most others. The rubrail is a nice flat surface and you can get a razor...
