What should you use to answer this question and also to take a pee onboard?
In principle, I see your point, and I always maintained that the best marine diesels are the ones which are regularly and properly serviced,...
I know, that's why I said that the Ferretti powerplant is better and more reliable. Chalk and cheese springs to mind, when comparing the VP D13 to...
Did you actually try the latter? And if yes, was she pods or shafts powered? As with any other boat offering both types of transmission, the hull...
Just for reference, no frequency drives in my chillers, whose breaker as I said is a C curve M-G Multi9 C60N, still working fine after 17 years....
I can't help you with US sources or anything else US-specific, but you are not comparing the same codes there. As a premise, bear in mind that...
All FIFTYFOUR minutes of it? You must be joking, life's way too short.
Wise choice. With the boat as she is, the arch certainly isn't the most elegant bit of design, but passable. With the flybridge stripped, it's an...
Good point in principle, but just in case the OP is wondering, I'm 99.9% sure that this is not an option with the type of seals he has installed,...
You shouldn't even call that biting the bullet: a no brainer is more like it, based on your video. BTW, I'm not 100% positive, but the shaft seal...
Interesting. Obviously neither Lazzara nor the builder of my own tub asked CR approval... :) [IMG]
Well, I've seen boats built with breakers like these 30+ years ago and still working with all the original ones as I'm writing. I'm not reflecting...
Feast your eyes on this specs sheet, inclusive of a technical drawing on page 3. https://www.gewiss.com/content/dam/gwdam/FILE/ZIT/ct_serie 90...
Thanks. That confirms only that it ain't a stuffing box, though. Most dripless seals are made as you describe, but among them there's the good,...
Not directly related to your issue, but what type of shaft seal have you got, if I may ask? Since you said you don't have any leakage, it must be...
I keep learning something new on US electrical components. Here you could only find that connected to a terminal strip (hence my suggestion of...
Forgive me if I insist, but I fully agree with Pascal on this one. It's pointless to start thinking to replace the engine mounts, because as I...
It might feel and look solid, but still be not good enough from an electrical standpoint. In fact, when in my previous post I suggested a loose...
Very good question.
Well, I'm always happy to put to bed any trouble that doesn't affect me! :) But just for the records, I'm somewhat surprised to hear also of your...
