Why beware? For anyone involved in the boating industry, the more boaters like the ones you are referring to, the better. No matter how much you...
All well and good, but I would blame marinas to start with, rather than euro builders. With non-floating dock, even if the boat does have side...
That's what also my boat came with, connected to a Raymarine sounder, and in fairness it worked acceptably well. But as Dockmaster said, sooner or...
What I would do (and in fact I did, in my own boat) is fit one of the Airmar thru-hull flush transducer, which don't require any fairing blocks....
Not me. She must be an impressive vessel for good, regardless of whether before or after repower.
I understand a hand held plotter - some charting softwares for tablets are actually pretty good. But as a depthfinder replacement...??
Out of all alcohol influenced posts, I see no special reason to remove yours. :)
I agree that the higher power engines in 2000 series MTUs (namely, the 16V) will lose some market share in the near future, but only because it's...
Ok, if you tell me that MTU support is poor in your area, I take your word for it. 'Fiuaskme, I'm not sure I would have jumped on Cat for that...
Well, if those MTUs were good enough for a dozen of years, even if worn out/high hours, they could have been overhauled surely? Probably (though...
Do you mean the answer is that they are using that boat as an engines test platform? Fair enough, but I don't see a huge difference with my...
Actually 4, according to their own video. BTW, a number that I would take with a pinch of salt, because they compared the same rpm (1900) rather...
So, in a nutshell: JB declared that the boat reached 48kts with the MTUs she was originally built with. 13 years later, she could still reach...
I agree with YF, though of course also the general construction must be solid enough to withstand the speeds ABs are designed for, otherwise they...
You're talking as if you weren't one of the contenders, thanks to you too! BTW, it seems to me that you are a very strong player in the field of...
Waddumean old? That was completely revolutionized in the very late noughties, and designed from scratch for the most modern modular building...
A perfect example of NOT practising what you are preaching within the very same sentence, if I've ever seen one! :D
Yes, a 200Nm range is enough to go anywhere in the Med. But there's also an attempt to wink at those who hope to save the planet, in this trend -...
We are now actually drifting a bit from the main subject, and I neither want nor can tell if MCYs could be a good option for the OP. But if you...
An excellent way to summarize all I was trying to say. I can't think of anything else to add, so I don't.
