That's a mean thing to type. We luv boats that belch smoke, remember?? Sadly, Incoming's smoke was out of the wrong place at the wrong time and...

There is a lot of heat / cool (expansion / contraction) going on back there. Then vibration from the engine, turbo and exhaust pulses beating...
Oh Raspberries. I'm sorry for the bad news. Sometimes there is just not enough duct tape.
Yep, the jig-saw puzzle. You may have to loosen the air inlet to the air cooler to help. Go easy on the oil supply and return tubes. I wish I had...
Now I'm worried about the exhaust manifold to turbo connect.
Looks like some exhaust soot on the other end of the turbo.
Something else has shifted causing this. Either the turbo compressor housing has rotated or the air cooler inlet has shifted. It's a jig-saw...
Oh No, another old guy that likes his grandchildren. That is what kennels are for, leave the pest behind.:eek: Can you guess I don't have these...
OMG, not a 3208.
I don't know anything about but thought a 65 Pacific Mariner was a good boat. You looking for something more special?

We know, Sister Judy deals with fine boats, fine people with very fine check-books. Also an outstanding author, broker and contributor. I hope I...
Yep, Brother rtrafford has a great point. I have witnessed many issues due to boats next door or near by. This may seem little until somebody...
What material is your current boat made of? Any issues with its build materials? Mixed metals? Metal fuel tanks? Wood window frames? Wood/balsa...
More space for more stuff? Get rid of the stuff and it becomes a big boat again. [MEDIA]
These are not all glued together boats. Screwed/bolted and glued is the better description. Installed by the factory or by previous owners;...
Low loads really does not mean better (IMO). When your tuned to make 1200HP, efficiencies at 400HP are not the best at that load (40% or less?)....
