Looks like the L590 and the older 58 SB layouts are similar. Latter is straight shafts and the hull is solid beneath the waterline; dunno about...
Dunno anything about the boats, but... I mostly like our MAN CRM-900s, and I guess the 1000s would be similar, newer, even better. OTOH, the V-8...
Not at all expert in either Volvo or IPS, but... I did do some research (with some of our local Volvo techs) a few years ago when considering a...
Or whether you're in charge... or the guests are running the ship. It's easy enough to mandate "navy" showers... and guests who ignore that can...
Ah. Well, I can suggest you might be able to do all that in something smaller, then, depending. First: saloon, dinette, cockpit, and flybridge...
Why are you looking so large? -Chris
Seems odd. Our MAN guy said he thought we could replace our current 900-CRMs with new I6-850s (including gears) for about $200K. ~$85K each for...
Surveyors catch some things... and miss others... even when in plain sight. And then whatever worked on survey day might break tomorrow. Or on...
Thought you just did a major honkin' refit? -Chris
Woof! That's a LOT of lights! We're much smaller, of course, so don't have so many. But that "battery distance" point reminds me now, in...
Yeah, I think the original (xenon?) bulbs -- no matter whether AC or DC circuits -- were a bazillion watts each. Hot! But all of the interior...
Hmmm... still trying to understand that. The three AC circuits each only have a few light fixtures. 4 one one, 2 on another, can't remember on...
Didn't mean that. I think. The three 120VAC lighting circuits were built for incandescent bulbs. No clue why 120VAC lighting. No clue why the...
I've gotten useful LED info from marinebeam. And some (all?) of their "bulbs" are for 10-30VDC so relatively versatile. We have some low-voltage...
We have a 340, with the GT console. We carry it on a hydraulic swim platform (not my favorite, but it's what came with the boat). Didn't have a...
I had good luck once with Sew Clean, from Trac. Actually, all I had on hand was Barnacle Buster that day, but the Trac guy told me to just dilute...
Most of my interaction with KUS suggests their customer support staff is all 12 years old... Or less... OTOH, hit or miss sometimes gives a hit....
Interesting. That's about the first pod review I've seen that that a) doesn't start with "they're crap" and b) describes some of the difference...
"This" lock? Picture? Schwepper mortise locks might not be uncommon. U.S. distributor is The Brass Works Inc. in DeLand, FL. -Chris
Maybe. Depending. The Sea Ray dimensions doc says 18' 3-7/8" from waterline to top of hardtop. Given the lowest Loop obstacle is a 19'-ish...
