I would NEVER get off of the boat and on the dock without the boat being secured first. I also will not run anything larger than a 40' center...
The other issue is the purchaser of the 74' in question here, traded his previous boat into Obey towards this new one months before, who sold it...
I like MPT in Fort Lauderdale,FL. Maritime Professional Training. The UK is most likely good. I don't think I'd be taking an STCW course in the...
On MAN's they generally run higher at cruise, depening on the engine. On the 1100 common rails, generally run 4-6 at cruise. I ran a set of 820...
You should have noticeably less vibration and should pick up a knot or so...….over older federal/michigans that your boat probably had. Make sure...
I run a lot of different yachts. Most of them have a good assortment of tools and spare parts, if not I usually bring my own. But, in my...
I've never had issues with the traditional 2 nut system and a cotter pin, as in ever. Why change what works?
Or, if you have enough money. You just pay someone else to maintain it.
The problem is, should carry this/this/this. If I carried everything I should carry, I'd have a 60lb sack of tools and parts......LOLOL, usually...

I cannot tell you how many owners have asked me if you can put an IPS boat on skyhook and get off and handle the lines. I've also had a few tell...
There are SO many factors beyond your or anyone's control that you simply can't put a percentage on it, there is no norm. Demand for that model...
This is true, but then I've seen several buyers get so wrapped up in getting the best price, that they get dillusional and lose every single boat...
You have many fallicies. First- a displacement hull has a set speed that it will do based on a formula and waterline length mostly determines...
I have an owner that got close to 20% off MSRP on a new, popular/main stream brand of MY between 65-70' at the Miami Boat Show last year. He...
Yes, you can polish aluminum to be more reflective than chrome, but on a set of outriggers you'd have a million hours doing so. Not exactly what...
I agree 97% of the time. Where they come in handy is a very shallow slip. One of the yachts I manage, we have less than 1' under the boat at low...
