I have a dedicated 24v house bank curently two 8Ds but will probably switch to golf cart batteries next time I replace that bank I picked 8Ds...
Darn… I just replaced both starting 8Ds on my boat. Too old for these 8D, had to ask a friend to help me. Not too long ago I would replace 8Ds...
That means Remove the props and have them checked. Pitch could be off on causing higher load
Never heard of insurance requiring the boat not to move until all recommendations done. That’s odd. Especially things like bottom paint which are...
Yes we replace all modules and switches. I was tempted to eliminate the modules in the crew and use momentary switches but since it seems to be a...
Where is that? Here in miami most yards can handle a 60 footer… it gets harder over 75/80
Better pick the right days with a light boat… unless the boat is a bargain, I think you re better off going straight for the 60 footer
100 gallons water is a joke. That’s 2 to 3 days on the hook. dock queen.
I missed that in the specs. That is barely half what you would want on a boat that size. My old Hatteras 53 carries 500 USG fuel and 250 USG...
I ran a couple of these Viking MYs on deliveries, pretty good boat. If you run in open waters they can use stabs like any if these small flush...

I wouldn’t buy a diesel boat either without an engine survey and oil samples. 600 hours since repower in 2015 is typical of boat usage though....
Here is the hydraulic hinge used for the bow hatch. It is marked NS 13882 USA, with the S lower than the N. Pretty sure it is a Nautical...
With water lift mufflers, isn’t it the water that muffles the noise, not baffles?
Yes the pin and jaw was free I ll take a picture of the piston and bracket / hinge tomorrow, but I doubt it is a Lazzara designed/manufactured...
I just hate having to re engineer it. I wish there would be a bigger engine driven pump.
I ve been using Fire Ranger for years, although since they were bought by another company their service has gone down a bit. The techs are good...
Turned out it wasn’t an hydraulic problem but the 1/2” threaded rod at the end of piston snapping off… Still loosing sleep about safety. [ATTACH]
Just had a close today while opening one the jet ski pod on the Lazzara 110. After lifting 6” it slammed back down. We haven’t been able to open...
Details on the firefighter death [ATTACH]
