Cruise at 20 or 21. Top out at 23 or so?

There are some models that won't fit through the door, but will fit through the front window if you remove it. You may also have to remove the door from the fridge.

Guess how I know that........

Do you still have windows on your boat?

mike ohlstein

Get a Marine CO detector. The home ones won't stand up to the moisture.

Nice. If the diesel here is $1.27, I'll be in the canyon every weekend.....

Porsche makes a 4X4..... Can the Porsche minivan be far behind?

Market share is the path to liquidity.

mike ohlstein

The larger one may not be able to pull it. It may need more clearance than you have.

I've always used a gear puller, because I never liked the idea of wailing on the shaft with a 4 pound hammer. But to be honest, the prop pullers work better........

mike ohlstein

I think what Mike was talking about is offshore trolling where the boat noise has a big part in raising fish. I never heard about 4 blade being better...but lots of things I never heard about. I was actually referring to the way that the boat makes it's wake, but the sound factor can't be discounte...

mike ohlstein

100% on the right track.

mike ohlstein

I use those valves on my cars. I have a pump system on the boat.

3000 Rpm's 27 knots, WOT 3200 rpms 28.4 knots. Will take 2 inch's of pitch and call it day 21x22 light to medium cup I would still advise 21X20 or 20X21 three blade with a more severe cup, especially at the tip. If you want to out-troll everyone in the canyon (except me...) go with a 20X20 four bla...

You could create a Powerpoint presentation. Upload the presentation to Dropbox, and post a link to it.

It will never get up on plane....

340 Diesel HP is barely enough to cruise at 17 knots.

420 HP pushes you to 21.

460 gets you to 25.

mike ohlstein

The engines will turn to 3450 under no load. You can run them continuously at 3100. You can run them 10% of the time at 3300.

Do not use a 20X24 blade.

Please refer to my post above. I have the same boat, the same engines, the same transmissions, and I've tried a dozen different wheels over the last 20 years. I know what works and what doesn't.......

mike ohlstein

Excellent work, my friend.

mike ohlstein

Timmy and I had a friend who had a 34 with 300 Cummins. It did 26 knots at cruise. I'm guessing that if it's set up right, you're going to cruise at 22 with 250's.

I use it to paint all of my trucks oil pans. So far, I've never had to repaint, or had one run out. Even on the plow vehicle.

I've never heard of it. Most VPN's are used for accessing private servers from remote locations. If Netflix has VPN access, they would have to make that information available to you.

Yanmar 230/240 hp engines. 2:1 gears. Appropriate wheels are 20X20, 20X21, 21X20 or somewhere in there. If the boat is light, maybe 21X21 Cruise is about 22, top end is about 25, give or take a knot. This is 20 year old science..... Can you tweak another knot out of it? Sure. But you have an 18 in y...

mike ohlstein

Is it much worse on one side than the other? That would point to the boat next to you. Did the marina rewire anything last year? I lost my wheels about 15 years ago to a faulty ground in the marina. Did the boats next to you have the same problem? If so, did they have more loss of metal on the side ...

Not the same boat. Johns is nicer and cheaper.

Try Simple Green and a power washer. Not to aggressive with the power washer.

Some interesting stuff. The Charles charger is top shelf. The Fisher Panda Gen Set was a fortune. I guess it rusted out? The props are under size. The struts don't look original, but I could be wrong. I don't like the stern thru-hull that's below the waterline. What was that from? The gen set? Outle...

Well then here you go Mike, tubing bigger then 5" that's not just sheet metal Not bigger than..... just 5" id. Yes, they do make it. Mostly it's well casing. No threads, all weld.

mike ohlstein

OR, you can do the same thing, only the bottom tube can be narrower than the gin-pole and fit into it rather than the gin pole slip into it. Thats the way I did it, I also added a teflon sleeve inside the pole so it slides with ease around the bottom part. Yes, if you can find the right sized base....

mike ohlstein

The gin pole obviously goes through a 4.5" hole in the panel. Below it, next to the battery tray, is a piece of wood which is glassed to the srtingers. A piece of 3" pipe with a welded flange on the bottom is bolted to the wood. The 4" gin pole slips onto the 3" pipe nub (about 6" high) and is held ...

I did away with the ladder in favor of a step which locks in place or swings out of the way.
