What size yacht is it? I've never seen someone call an A/C tech out on a yacht under 100' or so. But basically chillers work as they're supposed...
Use Florida Nautical out of Fort Lauderdale. You're not going to find a "big boat" surveyor on the West coast. CAT can use a CAT dealer.
If they're aluminum, you could have someone bead blast them possibly.
I don't think Cabo is a competitor to Mako at all, not even in the same segment. Also don't see where it would fall into the current...
3208 cats weren't sleeved either and neither are yanmars as far as I know. Removing a 5.9 shouldn't be terribly difficult. Some boats labor...
Generators- REPLACE, there's no parts out there for those 23 year old Onan's, new ones installed $30k each Cruise-airs- REPLACE $3500-4000 each...
It cannot be described. If you know Detroits, you know how one should start and run. Hire an engine surveyor. It's worth it's wait in gold.
It was a 1987 65' Hatteras MY extended to 75. Heavy on fuel 16.5-17 knots. Lighter (1/2 fuel) and in the right location 19 knots at 1900 rpms....
EVERYTHING is a problem on BMW's and NOTHING is cheap about maintaining them. My sister's 2020 3 series BMW is getting the engine replaced right...
I'm regulated to about a 19' boat. I have only 9' between my A/C unit and side fence, and 18' in front of it and will probably have to wiggle it...
I keep kicking myself in the rear. In 2010 I came across a crystal clean, garage kept 2006 20' Seacraft cc with 175hp optimax (135 hours) and...
Fiberglass, center console, bay boat (saltwater) or flats no bassboat. Yes mostly inland/backwater saltwater. I've been looking at Mako...
I've been out of inshore fishing for decades and just getting back into it. Thinking about buying a bay boat or skiff in this size range as I...
I highly doubt Hatteras will stop producing motor yachts. They build a LOT of motor yachts.. Cabo, that I don't know. Cabo has been the red...
Hatteras Yachts Acquired - Trade Only Today It says they're moving Ranger Boats and Mako boats to the New Bern Hatteras facility.
You NEED to have the A/C pickup with it's own thru-hull. But many builders put it on the seachest and that created huge issues with marine...
Both are very good motors. They both run very good. I feel the 8.3 has a lot more torque if going from the 480hp 5.9 to the 600hp 8.3. The...
I heard this yesterday while ironically looking at a Mako at Bass Pro Shops from the Manager there.
Yes, the MTU's run cool. I just bought parts for them. The Secondary fuel filters are ungodly expensive. Like $140 each and not that...
A company out of England makes the hydraulic power pack but not sure if they make the platform. The plate is on the hydraulic power pack, I...
