I don't think I have the tank level lights but I'll look again. On my panel there is a switch for the black water pump and an identical switch for...
Thanks guys, that helps a ton. Appreciate all the help. Donzi54, my vacuflush pumps and both gray and black tanks are in the spaces below the...
Capt J - I cruise more like low 20's, 25 knots would be high end of my cruise speed. Curious why it is better to use cockpit tank last? Doesn't...
Thanks Donzi 54. Where is the companion way machinery space and how do you access? Is this forward of the engine room bulkhead thru the door?...
Recently purchased a Z-54 and have some questions if anyone can help. I thought I was getting the original manual with the boat but no such luck....
I need a windlass that can handle a combination rope/chain rode as I often set a hook in as much as 400' of water to halibut fish. The boat I just...
Thanks for the recommendation. I'll head for Alaska late may. The boat will be kept in Ketchikan. Totally agree on running slower to watch for...
I'm new to the Puget Sound boating scene and my just purchased 1994 54' Donzi sport fish arrives in a few days. I'm looking for recommendations...
Where can I find the brochure you mention? Is it online? That would be interesting reading.
I hear you but can't see it as a reason to not buy the boat. Does any disagree? It's not like at 2.5" the shafts are considered undersized by any...
I seatrialed the boat Friday and everything went well so I'm moving ahead with the purchase. The boat ran and handled well. Cruised at 24-25 knots...
According to the shaft calculator on boatdiesel.com even if they are 2.5" shafts they would still easily handle the 1150 hp of the 12v92's. And I...
Thanks Bamboo. No idea what brand of props are there. Survey says they are 28x37 NiBral. I'll measure the shaft diameter when I trial the boat on...
I haven't measured the shaft diameter but according to the survey they are 2.5"
Thanks for the input. My only concern here is my last boat (39' Sportfish) had a shaft break right at the start of the taper. What a pain running...
RER- do you know much about this boat? Yes, it is Tiger Shark II, hull #5. Initial survey did not come back as good as I had hoped. Current owner...
Thanks for the tip on fuel tanks, I'll definitely look close. On a separate note, my haul out surveyor noted the distance from the aft edge of...
Donzi 54 - I don't know the hull # on the one I'm buying or even how to tell? It's a 1994 model year if that makes a difference. Curious why...
Wow, that's awesome. You likely just saved me a pile of money on an unneccsary additional heataing sysytem. Do you know how the system heats the...
I had planned to install a diesel fired hydronic heat system as I assumed the HVAC is a typical reverse cycle system. I know from past the reverse...
