Some boats you can run both motors off of one side, but the boat has to have the valves in order to do so. I'm guessing yours probably does not...
Also, EFI runs a lot better than carbs. BUT the EFI fuel system can require expensive repairs also if they sit. The key to any tender is to use...
Yamaha would be my first choice. EFI definitely over carberators. One boat I managed had a Tohatsu on it and it seemed to run good and is 3 years...
Thank the Lord. I got stuck waiting for what seemed like an eternity for that old swing bridge to open.
Call the people that just rebuilt it, they should ensure that the generator runs and produces power if it was just rebuilt.
As you should know, a lot of tweaks and changes occur between hull #1 and subsequent models based upon how it runs, rides, handles, etc. Many...
You do have to consider the loop hose size and circulation pump size. Also need to consider the BTU's of all of the air handlers, because if...
This, you are better off doing a hull speed of 7.5 knots and then mixing it up with x amount of time at cruise speed to achieve your 10 or 12 knot...
Yes, but some Lazzara's are much worse than others. The 68' MY for example. The Mainship is kind of the same way and the owners work around it. LOL
Because the issue isn't fixable generally. It's generally propeller to blade tip issue. Just like Lazzara's will cavitate the props if you get...
This. Check your piping size, but on the size of your yacht 5 tons a chiller sounds pretty light.
I have cleared in Atlantis many many times, and usually it's pretty quick, around an hour for them to show up. However a few times, I haven't...
That is a very long day, for a day mate. Do-able IF everything goes perfectly, if not you're spending a lot of money on plan B. The trip,...
A smaller diameter prop would probably have a good effect on reducing vibration if it can still get the boat up on plane.
If it's a problem across the entire line, it is most likely improper propeller blade tip clearance. Another builder had this problem, and they...
If you fix junk, you will still have junk. If they're 10 years or older, replace, because you will spend 50% of the cost of a new one and it will...
Is your running gear all in good condition and your bottom clean?
I would put new Dometic's in. I don't mess around with any off brand units. That being said your failure is extremely strange. But, I've seen...
If the boat/yacht hasn't sold on either yachtworld or boat trader, than it is simply priced to high for it's condition. Something is worth what...
I don't know if cleaning them in this manner would help or harm. Detroits do run dirty after periods of slow speeds and cleaning the aftercoolers...
