A powerboater cannot convey his intentions, if the sail boater doesn't understand what intentions are. Such as whistle signals, having an...
It's not their specialty, just as there would be a learning curve if Feadship were to build a whitbread sailyacht. Or if you had a general...
I can assure you that Hatteras is not shut down and is operating. Currently has many yachts in build, and the delivery Captain you spoke to has...
Trolling is the reason why. The underwater exhaust makes the wake behind the stern full of bubbles and not clean. This interrupts how the fish...
Ahhh, Jim M..... I worked for him for a small period of time in 2003. He seemed like a very nice guy. It's amazing the people you run into. I...
Sportfish don't use underwater exhaust. At least I don't know of any. They come out the stern. Jim Smith was a giant pioneer in the speed game...
It's most likely where the recessed trim tabs will be mounted, obviously once it's off of the trailer.
109' and yes, Jim Smith is about a mile from the water and always have trucked them to the Hinckley yard I think it is to be launched, also need...
1. Aftercoolers and what maintenance has been scheduled on it. 2. Teak decks and if there's any left. Access to the engines for servicing....
The old 46.6 Bertrams had the toe stubbing deck fills where the cap was 3/4" above the deck level, I'm almost positive. And was a cap like on a 2...
For a trip that's all of 72 hours, I wouldn't much worry about it either way. But,It depends how you look at it. If you're doing slow speed with...
50 amp is too low for a starter, could be a small windlass though. Or the 1 side of a breaker panel possibly. Go to Ward's marine electric's...
You could derate the engines and do that, but the cost of new props, injectors, etc. etc. would be cost prohibitive. You could run 92's for 4-6...
You don't want to run 92's at 1500 rpms or less, you will surely wash out the cylinder liners with the big injectors. Key to keeping 92's live a...
Look for a split in the top of the tank or a bad gasket. Fuel cooler will generally push fuel out into the water, BUT it's easy enough to pressure...
Cabo had issues with those sliding side windows leaking and I believe stopped putting side windows after hull 7. I don't know the fix for you,...
I don't remember, I think around $2500. Call a dealer and ask them. MTU does have a newer display, not sure if it's compatible or how much it...
I haven't dealt with fixing one. We just bought new ones to replace the bad ones. Try Max Marine electronics in Pompano Beach,FL. I believe...
Hard paint will always outperform ablative over the long run. I've easily gotten 2-3 years out of hard paint and it was still effective....
I would replace exhaust manifolds and risers now and exhaust hoses/clamps off of the risers. Then plan on changing them every 5-7 years with...
