Make them order you new props NOW, in the proper size and now. 2" of pitch reduction still might not be enough and can't reduce pitch anymore....
I've run both the Princesses and Sunseekers extensively. The Sunseeker is a better sea boat, dryer, and generally faster. The Princesses have a...
That price is very light, especially on such short notice. I would try paying $200 or so. Try calling local marina's and speaking to the...
Most of my owners are in the 60-70' range. Not all yachts have a chef ,nor want to be on anchor and generator. A lot of my customers want to go...
I love the Exumas and have been going there and doing many many trips there since 2003. But after Sampson Cay went private (which was a great...
I hate to say it, but at 25 years old I'd just replace the entire system. That being said, you'll be lucky to get half that lifespan out of a new...
The Southern Boating article also said the charter boats are supposed to pay a percentage (I think it was 4%) of each charter fee. Between the...
I wonder what it means when it says inappropriate merchant mariner credentials. Hard to believe that a 97' doesn't have one life ring. Usually...
Chapmans book of piloting and seamanship
I agree with this. On faster planning boats (25+ knots I see increased speed of about 2 knots in depths less than 2-3x the draft, slower boats...
Do you know what RPM's you made at WOT with the pre-reengineered original wheels? Did they make proper RPM?
I would have ACME take care of it right away. They should cover this on their end if you gave them all of the Michigan specs.

A few yachts I've worked on, one I currently manage has engine room a/c. It won't make it 70F in there. But it will knock down the engine room...
Generally the cat 360 joystick is mounted in places solely by itself such as on the aft deck. There is no way really to isolate bow or stern...
They have a great range and hold a lot of fuel for their size. 1200 gallons I believe, The 1150HP C18's burn 85 GPH at 80%, older 1000 HP 76 GPH...
I have a lot of experience with the Cat 360 joystick on several yachts from 70-90'. It is pretty good but not the end all of all end alls. For...
on ALL of the MTU's.....starters.....alternators......coolant pumps......etc.....etc....
I had to undergo a warranty rebuild on a 2-3 year old C32 because the aftercooler leaked. I know several 2008 +/- 1 year C18's that had to have a...
This would be another great choice.
