I sympathize with your train of thoughts. I mean, pretty sure there were things that could have been built and/or handled differently/better, and...
Agreed 100%, that's a thought that crossed also my mind.
So, what? Your previous statement remains 100% false anyway. And obviously, criminal prosecutors are fully entitled to appoint technical...
That couldn't be more far from the truth. The presumption of innocence principle was well established in Roman law well before common law even...
Not sure of what your distinction between a "plain" investigation and a criminal investigation means, but according to our law whenever there are...
In reverse order: Investigation is a legal requirement in Italian law, in an accident like this. You may not like that, but a whim of the moment...
THIS, I fully agree with. So much so, that I already expressed my thoughts about that months ago, in this post...
Do you mean the same justice system that sentenced the Italian captain of Costa Concordia to 16 years of jail? Pascal, just in case you didn't...
I can't be positive because I might be confusing this with another boat/builder, but did you actually see any smoke coming out of those side...
Yes thanks, all good here. I hope likewise at your end. Apologies for not remembering what your old boat was, but if it came from the builder...
Sarnico, your question is making me curious. Did you ever come across a boat where exhaust is routed either to the main pipe or to a bypass by...
I don't think the boat could perform that way with cracked heads etc. Do you know what happened, since then? And how many hours had the engines...
Check out the following webpages. Not many details, and I'm afraid they are in Italian, but that's all I could find. A translator should give you...
How could you tell the load? The 1100 MANs the OP mentioned are 100% mechanical (same as mine), and if you are aware of any method for knowing at...
RER, I tried to explain why I couldn't understand your point. If the only explanation you can give for it is based on hearsay, you're the one who...
I see your point CR, but the temperature-driven volume difference is bound to be nowhere near high enough to compensate the lower gas volume due...
Why/how? Of course if the boat can't reach the rated RPM because it's overpropped, she will run at higher than normal load, and this is another...
You seem worried by not being able to reach the max rpm, but that's just a consequence. What a too high exhaust backpressure does, first and...
Don't make the (admittedly very common) mistake to think that displacement hulls/boats burn less fuel. It's displacement speed that does! I mean,...
I see. Makes good sense, of course cruising at WOT is never a good idea, unless with engines rated as continuous unrestricted - which the MAN...
