When I had a seafire box go bad, that is what happened. It didn't do it right away, it did it after hours of running. On the two I changed, both...
The side power curved Vector stabilizer fins. At anchor they sweep in parallel with the boat hull and then kick straight out parallel with the...
No, Fireboy/xintex has similar to Seafire which is what I've seen on several boats. Scroll down and See the ELS and ES series in the link below....
The black boxes are generally the other manufacturer...…...fireboy
I think a USCG auxiliary safety course or similar should be required. I don't mind new technology, hell, I've been one of the first to run/test...
The box wire connections are poke and stick. Hendrik, this is the box you're looking for: support.sea-fire.com/product-details.asp?prodId=131-450

I don't care how many times you polish the fuel in your 1200 gallon single fiberglass tank. You will NOT get all of the algae out. With the...
I was referring to the picture that I posted the link to(top row being poke and stick).
You have to calibrate it for the specific gravity of the fuel by changing the gravity disc in the alfa laval to match the specific gravity of the...
