The PSS seals look like they have only one port on each seal. Are you saying you have Tee fitting in each supply line going to the other side?
Can you expand on what you said in your initial post and what you mean by "acceptable heading control" ? Are you trying to hold a straight line...
I was just looking at the Tides online. They even show them plumbed with a crossover line right online. My first glance through their catalog and...
We pulled the hose off the seal coming from the engine and fired them up and there is significant flow going to the seal. We also verified no...
Lew - what brand seals are you running? My previous seals were plumbed the same way and I never had an issue either. I'm already seeing signs...
How do others have their seals plumbed? Tee lines or crossovers? Perhaps most others have a single port so you just tee them together?
Following up on this issue. I sent the failed seal back to Lasdrop for their input. They inspected and said it is apparent the seal overheated. I...
You said it is a "NEW" boat. Where's your dealer? They should be helping you with this
So here’s the latest; I finally got another quote and it was almost half at 1.1% (vs. 2%) and the deductible is 2% vs 5% . So just based on...
I was wondering about the 16v in a 54' as well and that was odd. If they are 12v, then can be repowered by C-18's like I did but still going to be...
what year is your Bert? I wasn’t suggesting you could buy a new boat for same, especially a bigger 61. But if you have 16v92s you must be a mid...
I think your numbers are off a bit. Sounds like you might be using 12v92 specs. A 16v92 should be more like 1400hp depending on year and...
Can’t really compare an excavator to a yacht. As you mentioned, access is very different. Then your talking two engines,not one. And I don’t think...
Lots on your coast that can do the job. You’ll probably spend more than just buying a newer boat with newer engines, gen, electronics, etc already...
You have lots of options for engines depending on your preference and what you are trying to achieve. CAT C-32s would be a great option. Cost will...
Prepare for sticker shock. You are talking about a pretty major conversion. Lots of weight being added up high so stability needs assessment. Then...
If you are replacing shafts then whoever you are buying shafts from should easily be able to provide you the taper and key dimension items Veem...
I went from 4 blade to 5 blade and quite happy with results. Others may have different opinions. More blade area is supposed to give more lift.
If you suspect a fuel problem from port tank to port engine, why not run a simple temporary fuel line from the STBD tank to the port engine? Keep...
You can contact Veem directly. They will give you a form to fill out with all the particulars for your boat. Then they will make a recommendation....
