Anywhere around Italy, unless you are an IT citizen, yep, your USCG license is enough. I would think it's accepted also in other Med Countries,...
I see in your profile that you have a Bertram 37. I can't be positive about your particular model, but as I recall Bertram (as well as many other...
They don't, in your self-contained equipment. Actually, since I'm not English mother tongue, this thread made me wondering if I was using the...
Thanks Beau for enlightening me. Every day is a school day, as they say. I can't remember to have ever seen boats built by any European yard,...
No need for references either, with someone who declares "when the master of a vessel tells you to jump, you ask how high"... :rolleyes:
Fair enough, that's exactly the exception I previously mentioned, where indeed you don't have any fresh water circulating inside the air handlers,...
I fully agree that torque is the driver and not power, but they must have given their approval based on the mated gearbox ratio rather than the...
That's because there isn't a valve attached on the internal side of those discharge ports, I suppose. Out of curiosity, is it so rare in the US to...
Interesting, but are you sure? I never came across any AC system working without a refrigerant GAS, on top of the refrigerant LIQUID. Mind, the...
All agreed, but while Mysteri mentioned 5 units running on one pump, he also spoke of a "front drain", in his OP. This makes me think that those 5...
Hang on a minute, that's actually a third circuit, which I didn't consider in my previous post. The refrigerant gas (freon, 410, or whatever is...
I am a bit puzzled by this debate, so I am wondering if there's anything I'm missing. I mean, any AC equipment (small boats aside) has two water...
They are not moved also in my boat, and the same MAN dealer who used to support the builder on new installations told me that he always advises...
I see that you also have, as Beau mentioned, the air intakes blowing right towards the outboard valve covers. Maybe that has something to see with...
Aha, I see. Maybe the plain vanilla painted covers are more longlasting than the chromed ones. In fact, I would think/hope that mine will still be...
+1, great job indeed! Also adds a Caterpillar touch to those engines... :) I'd just be curious to see a "before" pic. I mean, those are CRM...
I'm glad that you found my contribution entertaining. At least that's some result, as opposed to reiterating something everybody already agreed...
Of course I agree that there are more hands on the bridge of a cruise ship, and that the Captain of this vessel also had other fishes to fry, but...
So what? It's irrelevant whether the horn was sounded earlier or not. Just look at the video below from 0:40 onward, and hear up to when they kept...
Wrong estimate again, I'm afraid. Why do you bother relying on your personal knowledge, no matter how intimate, when nowadays computers can do the...
