It depends on the dock/location etc...….probably $800 including water and electric +/-. $250 a month was incredible deal even back then. Going...
Easy, they make Battery isolators that you can run one of the engine alternator leads to. It generally has a few 24 volt leads and 1 12 volt lead...
In Fort Lauderdale and some of Miami and Palm Beach. There are a lot of houses on canals off of the Intracoastal waterway and most of these...
I wouldn't, as Great Harbor Cay has NO commercial airlines that fly to it, no real grocery store, and nobody to take care of the boat that I've...
The new monitoring boards supposedly don't fail. They record the information to the EPROM instead of the RAM or something to that effect. The...
This is a very very broad question and impossible to answer without more information. What size and type of boat do you have? How often do you...
It's very easy to spot. The aftercooler cover on the center, top, exterior of the engine, looks totally different between old and new style.
I have no experience with the N14's. But I never liked 3208's, the lack of liners and they always seem to have greyish/blue smoke at slow speeds,...
The masthead/anchor light looks normal Perko. The stern light directly above the spreader lights is a special piece. Looks like you have a 35'...
In regards to the yacht market, yes it is. Same with the C18 1000HP, which was a terrific engine, but CAT didn't want to spend the money to get...
I've been able to find new 183 parts all day long without too much issue or lead time. Same with getting them rebuilt. I managed a yacht with...
The 55' Uniesse did pound something aweful in a 1 or 1-2' chop, similar to a 13' Boston Whaler. Note, I said chop and we did have to slow down...
Azimut seems to be selling a ton of boats and doing well and has weathered the storm perfectly, and they too build lower quality boats. Riva...
SHE DID. She was way off in trim and had to be run with the flaps halfway down or better at cruise. Anything over 1' chop on the bow, something...
I don't think this approach would work with any seller in their right mind, IF the engines in the boat are operating properly. Also a major...
I just ran a set of C12's about 2 months ago for 3 days straight at cruise. At 80%, I want to say they burn 54 GPH for the pair.
Also since your boat has a power steering pump, make sure the engines are running when you turn the wheel lock to lock several times.
I don't find any issue with Arneson boats tracking straight at idle/slow speeds in the ICW. In the ocean they'll hold a course at hull speed up...
I agree the 3412's are bulletproof. The C30 was an evolution of them, the C32 is not, it's now an overhead cam motor. The C32 is very reliable,...
I wouldn't bother spending the money putting that on a 20 year old Westerbeke generator. Fuel flow is about 1 GPH on a 20 kw on a 24 hour basis.
