Captain Ralph’s observations on fishability are spot on. Center consoles and walkaround expresses are great matches for outboards. With a large...
My understanding is it’s effectively the same boat as the 58’ (my 1999 enclosed bridge model is currently for sale). I wouldn’t let the gel cote...
yes that’s the one. My understanding is that seakeepers are largely designed to counter roll and pitch, not yaw - so I doubt it would be much...
Unfortunately turned out to be more than the fuse. Changed it and it just blew again as soon as I started it. Door switches read 0.3 ohms closed...
Thanks, I will take you up on it and send you a message. Glad to hear you haven’t been hammered too hard on the upkeep costs. I found a 2000 post...
Viking 58C EB with 1200 hp mans 3SR (master and VIP queens and a bunk room) and 3 heads. $300k+ invested over the last 3 years bringing her up...
chainsaw also would have worked.
The microwave in my new-to-me post 42 wouldn’t power up. Took me a while to figure out how to get it out and I figured I’d share a pic so others...
Thanks so much for the visit captain! Sleeping much better at night knowing the AC power situation is simplified and functional. Both the AC power...
a couple of clarifications- the boat receives and distributes both legs of AC power from the dock through the main panel. However, before the...
The arrows drawn on the cables are not intended to be the direction of current although now that you mention it that would have also been logical....
That test is not possible right now because the transformer is not feeding any shore power to the transfer switch. Only the generator is. This is...
Unfortunately no help from the PO - no contact with him at all. And nothing in his limited logs or records. I did have it surveyed - this same...
No…I’m just saying I now know how that particular box is supposed to work Relative to your suggestion to get a “real tech” out to the boat, that...
Eh..what’s not to trust? The question is what happens when it gets input from both the genset and shore power, the companies website says it...
Also google answered my question about what happens when both shore power and the generator are feeding the transfer switch - apparently it is...
in the foreground of the image with the inverter there’s a black box - “southwire automatic transfer switch” In the background of the same image...
here’s pics One pic is the automated transfer switch, inverter, and the bypass switch (mounted on the bulkhead) Other pic is the transformer,...
i understand what you are saying. For the “automated transfer switch” to be “automated” it has to have a controller that has some sort of logic...
It’s more than this - the inverter also needs AC voltage to charge the batteries when they are not needed for supplying power. The transfer...
