Gold Coast Power was the dealer that were the very first to marinize 3412 cats. They've been around forever, but somehow Pantropic ended up with...
I renewed my license earlier this year and didn't have to re-test. I've never heard of having to re-test IF you have the seatime. Is it possible...
Yeah, factory size minus 2" pitch is what I've found with my experience with Ocean's and the age of the boat.
I've found it to change a little...…..On the last trip I had to adjust it as it climbed 75 psi, from one day to the next. Most of the watermakers...
I've used a lot of the different watermakers. The HRO sea recovery ones are nice, they have a remote start/stop panel that's nice and like those....
You have two situations here and 2 right of way questions.
I recommend that he goes to a propeller shop with his numbers (rpm/speed/weight/diameter/pitch/gear reduction) and have them plug it into their...
Generally on a 2300 rpm diesel inboard, I've always seen 1" of pitch gets you 50-75 rpms. It also depends greatly on the reduction ratio as to...
I do every 2 years or 300-500 hours on the engine impellors...…..Depends on what size they are. One generators, I do every year or 200 hours.
Polyform's are better than the Taylors. Taylors have a needle to fill and a bear to deflate. Go with Polyform A4's, they only have 1 fill, but...
The problem from North of Ft. Pierce to New Smyrna is there isn't an inlet worth a sh@t. Vero is a LONG ways to an inlet.
On a diesel 1" of pitch generally gets you 50 rpms. Gas inboards 1" gets you 200 rpms. A lot of boats need to be re-pitched as they get older....
Whatever the prop size is, deduct 2" of pitch. Every Ocean I've ever dealt with needed the props cut after being 5 years old or older.
If it was me, I'd live in Jupiter. Lots of terrific local unique restaurants. The water has a nice clear blue/green color, the lighthouse and...
On a used boat it doesn't apply as far as I know, and WHO would ever check? Also if they meet the Euro Tier specs, they should meet the U.S....
I put in 2 and once a month when I clean the strainer......
I have seen tons of A/C outfits and owners clean the chillers with muriatic acid, more times than I can count because in 2 minutes you're done....
I've been using this same set as primary fenders for a year now and have never had to add air to them in 6 months. They work great, are much...
I see Veems on a lot of the newer boats I run and you can tell the difference. Vibration on all of them with the Veems is pretty much non...
Sounds good. If the gaskets were really dried out, I'd plan on doing the other engine too. Chances are the gaskets on it aren't far behind it,...
