I have no personal experience with Riva, but on their flybridge models, the very deep draft makes then a NO GO for a lot of my customers.
Welp, that doesn't match the USCG safe manning requirements in regards to sleep. We've all done those watches of 4 on 4 off, ok to do for 1 day,...
Send it to me……..I'm curious to see it just for my own interest.
Due to the cost of the Ceramic coatings and the fact that it only lasts 2-3 years (maximum). I have a hard time justifying it except in a few...
If your boat is Awlgripped, either traditional or Awlcraft, you should use nothing but Awl-wash soap on it and Awl-care. It greatly extends the...
Having 4 normal sized, very usable staterooms in a 66' MY and a very usable crew stateroom for 2, is very hard to achieve. You will not find a 4...
I don't feel that way about Sunseeker. Sunseekers performance is much better than Princess and Fairline, so is there seakeeping ability....
I'm not super knowledgable about seakeeper maintenance, but have run a lot of seakeepers. There's a zinc or two that seems to be every 100-200...
The official designation was a 730 I believe, boat was a 2004 I think. Rudders were behind the transom and boat was definitely under-ruddered....

I ran a 590' Feretti, I think the boat was a 2003. It had 1050 MANs and was fast from what I remember. I don't remember the exact cruise speed....
The only way I know to cool the motors besides raw water cooling is keel cooled. What is so wrong with them sea water cooled? It's a minor cost...
The converter for the refrigerator is bad. If you leave your battery charger on, then it shouldn't be a problem to run the refrigerator off of 12...
That's all well and good if you're interested in an 8 knot boat. Most people aren't and a keel cooled system will not work on a yacht or sportfish.
No, have never done anything to piss off any vendor. Let me rephrase that, they don't do any counter sales anymore. They'll sell to me and ship...
Some new Lewmars will utilize the same mounting pattern as the old long discontinued ones.
They were pretty much almost out of business a year ago. Someone else bought them and then bought Jerry's Marine Supply which didn't have...
They're open right now. HOWEVER, since Lewis combined with Jerry's Marine, it's been a clusterf@@@ over there the past few months. Different...
WEMA is no longer, they became KUS. Last I checked they stopped selling to anyone except dealers, they wouldn't sell to me anymore with a marine...
I just paid $1.45 on diesel on under 200 gallons from a truck in Ft. Laud.
