I am having PSS installed on a boat that had tides and spun one of the tide seals crimping the hoses and frying the entire assembly (which I've...
ISO-boost, raises voltage on your shorepower if the marina has low voltage. A lot of yachts don't have inverters. Inverters require additional...
It could also be something internally in the engine such as a bent rod or dead cylinder, etc. Instead of poking guesses on an internet forum....
13-14 knots is a horrible speed......if anything, run at 1000 rpms or slightly less at hull speed for a few hours or many and cruise the rest of...

Operational. Stern thrusters usually don't come standard and are an addition. Mostly an addition or becoming more popular in the last 5-8 years....
The rpm/speed that seem like the sweet spot now will be irrelevant after you soda blast the bottom and put paint on it. MAN's LOVE to run at 80%...
