The stackable apartment sized household units work good. The 1 machine washer/dryer never does.....the vented ones are a little better but still...
The older 61's were pretty good running boats, but I believe newer hull designs would be better. I ran a 2006 61' with C32 1650hp with mezzanine...
I use Teflon tape, I find it's worn through in plenty of area and makes a good bond. It doesn't leak, you don't have to he-man tighten it so that...
Most all of the all in ones I've seen are unvented. The entire reason to use that size is to save space, and most don't want to waste the space...
The only thing a central vac does is keep dust out of the air if someone has allergies...….mainly the person doing the vacuuming.
After seeing one coming out of the Miami boat show last year run at cruise and almost eject the captain about 1/2 a dozen times by Port Everglades...
Chances are if you used a nipple, it is not bronze but yellow brass. It too will fail. But they do make them: here are groco ones...
I had that situation with a dometic copper A/C discharge tree connected to the a/c pump with a red brass nipple. Did not last a year. The way I...
That's a KUZ sender......you need the mounting pattern 5 screw or threaded flange AND you need to know the OHMS for the gauge...….they are made in...
No anchoring is just a preference. I wouldn't put that much chain......maybe 60' of chain and a good 300'+ of rope...…..The Hatteras are much...
It's about time the canal has some money into it. It's one of my favorite trips and does have soooooo much potential for more. But it definitely...
Most Sportfish do not anchor, as in ever. I would go with a mix of chain and rope because you don't want too much weight in the bow generally....
You can always charter a yacht in the Pacific. If you only have the time for a week or two a year, it makes a heck of a lot more economic sense....
Yes, last boat I had awlgripped with Awlcraft 2000 was with a very well established, well regarded yard in Fort Lauderdale, was a 62' Predator...
Prestige is another thought the 50' Flybridge has 3 liveable staterooms plus crew and has a useless washer/dryer and I think a central vac also.
Or just buy a boat first, so you actually have one, so you can actually do anything at all! :D
Sunseeker would be my choice in that size. But keep in mind, the washer/dryer you find on even a 66' Manhattan is a total POS. You can fit 2 XL...
For just the hull? Here in Fort Lauderdale the going rate is about $400' for just the hull. The rubrail up is where it gets expensive.
He's talking 40-45' on that size on a yacht you can forget about having a washer and dryer, and a central vac......space is precious and those...
NO, the OP asked about pods in post #7. And, he's asking about advice on a flybridge MOTORYACHT.
