The 50' Hatteras with C18's cruised at 30.5 knots with just a hard top when the boat was new.
The other problem with Head hunter and Raritan is you need good water pressure. Both both brands (HH and Raritan) are good toilets, reliable,...
You can change MAN oil filters with one person, but you just need to know how to do it. Post is good, but getting around the front of the motors...
Mapism, what I mean when MAN aftercoolers are isolated. They do not touch any other metal parts of the engine. They have a big rubber o-ring...
Yeah, you're right. I used to own a 26' Strike, it was an incredible boat with a great ride.
It should be easy enough to find a new vendor for aftercoolers.
Yes, from your engines dealer.
I'm dealing with a yacht right now with a 1 year old electro clean system, while the a/c strainer doesn't seem to get much algae build up on it,...
Man's heat exchangers are isolated with rubber o-rings and have no zincs. Something is obviously wrong in the CAT camp regarding the...
Call a tech. Without telling us what engines you have AND what engine controls you have, there is nowhere for any of us to even start to guess....
My theory is that CAT loves to mount the aftercoolers on top of the motor. My theory is the sea water drains out of them, air is in there along...
absolutely replace the pump. See if you can plumb in a water pressure gauge after the pump. Watermaker companies use them and sell them. It...
Inflation is a part of it. New yacht prices have increased so dramatically that used prices are either holding their own or increasing. The...
I'm confused, in post #5 you stated that port water level is 8" lower than starboard seachest water level. The other thing with vented...
That boat will never be cool over the summer, 10 tons isn't even remotely close to what a yacht that size needs. You have 2 different brands of...
CHANGE them. I personally know of 4 CAT motors, that lead a very early death from aftercoolers leaking, 3 of them C18's.
Quite honestly, it will perform close to how the 16v92's with C18's.......1150hp versus 1400 HP? A hell of a lot of weight savings.......probably...
Check for an air leak possible raw water pump sucking air........or collapsed hose while running at cruise.....or a blockage somewhere in the...
Yes and it's insanely cheap. I just bought a 20' Lake & Bay flats boat. $100k liability insurance $183 per year.......full coverage stated value...
Yes but as far as hours and total fuel burned go, it transmits it real time to the LCD cat display
