It was indeed the voltage regulator. I had a spare so it was fixed quickly by my tech and I ve told him to get me another spare

I just saw that a captain was fined $15k ($7500 per day a violation is noted) for exceeding 10kts off the Carolinas. Apparently he got a letter in...
I haven’t had a chance to look at it today. I have the operator and parts manual but nothing beyond “check the field breaker” we re in miami so...
One of our 45 kW Ohnos fired right up today but isn’t outputting any power. Checked both the main 100amp breaker and the field breaker. Any...
Personally I would never replace a fiberglass tank with alum in a diesel boat. My tanks are over 50 year old. the only thing that can cause a...
The power supply on out ISIS crapped out a couple of weeks ago. I sent it to Vinit who diagnosed it as beyond repair but he built me a new one...
Same ownership as Inflatable Boats of Florida in Naples. We bought a generation 450 from them back in 2016. I think that it was their only...
Turbos or naturals? How old are they and have they been rebuilt before ? when I looked into rebuilt my Naturals 5 or 6 years ago, it was about...
Is it just a smell or do you actually have diesel in the bilge? It could be an issue with other the vent hose as well. carvers have aluminum...
It would help if you tell us what year and what engines you have in this thing…. If you have a cracked manifold, well you need to replace it!
We have a walker bay generation 450 on the boat I run. It’s 7 1/2 years old and has seen a lot of HARD use so we just put new tubes.. 600+ hours...
Electric thruster on a boat that size? Or was that to run the hydraulic? Our hydraulics (BT, windlasses and stabs) normally run off the engine...
I believe they shut down the davit business. Most of the parts like pumps, cylinders etc are pretty much off the shelf so any good hydraulic shop...
It helped a little but still you d think that with an extra 200+hp there would be a significant speed difference. And again a 1970 hull shape is...
Wow. That is real slow. I can cruise my 53 Hatteras ( hardly a light boat) at 17kts with twin 435hp Cummins.
That looks pretty much like the typical visibility you get from most RPH… when I first got on the 110 Lazzara I run, I was surprised by the lack...
No experience with this specific boat but many boats can not stay on plane at 16kts and/or it will take very little to make them fall off incl...
Why bother? Just take the Moser Channel bridge… Tides in the keys usually run 1.5 to 2’ so even at low tide Bahia Honda will be too tight.
Looks like they were heading back to the marina on Watson but changed their plans because of the wind and returned to where they were anchored....
