Good eye Randall !

The original GT40 was 40" tall, the repop a little taller. The new height makes it a little easier for a non race car driver with a fat wallet to get into.

But the lines are pretty much the same.

Kingfish

Bill,

It would interesting to see some pics of your.

Can you post some pics or e-mail them?

Kingfish

Brewster, Maybe a Dytek source.

Clay,

Thanks for the info. I've never bought from them, but I will delete them from my favorites.

Kingfish

Mike,

How's it coming? Thanks mucho again for the ride to the Aero Puerto.

Think UV hit it on the head. Friend had a stainless half tower on his 28',
kept cracking @ the welds. Replaced it with alum.

Kingfish

I have Oversea Ins., the underwriter is Zurich. I'm in Calif. but noticed on their card they are also in FL. (954) 522 2262.

I also tried Boat Useless , but they wouldn't insure a 1975 28' for what I wanted.

Kingfish

Phil,

Your going to love the AP16. Put one on my boat 1 1/2 yrs. ago. No more driving the boat. Upswell - downswell no problem.

Plug in a way point on along run hit Nav and away you go! Or in the bays us auto mode and the buttons.

1. release pressure on tank. 2. Open fill cap and fill to last bubble. 3. Install cap and pump to 35 psi. 4. On the square valve you will see two round cylinders sticking out with nuts on the end. Back these nuts off. They will not come off, they are attached to the check valves. Once loose, they wi...

Major, Bill Fuller might chime in, he has 240's in his 28' and no problem with air intake. He has speed, range and economy. He would have to give you his #'s. I on the other hand have 170's in my 28'. I have range and economy. My cruising speed is 16-18 kts with 22-23 kts tops fully loaded. If your ...

What Doug Said.

Kingfish

Rick,

What year is your B28? Mine is a 1975= 165 gals.

Just wondering how you get the extra fuel with basicly the same hull!

Kingfish

Going to Cabo San Lucus this year for our aniversary.

Wife can shop, lay on the beach or by the pool.

Me I'm going fishing!

Kingfish

Mike,

Have your stuff........see you the 16th Or 17th.

Kingfish

Thanks for the info Peter, too much knowledge is not enough.

Kingfish

Probably not enough time to help you out, but I'm headed to the Cape Sunday 3/11/07 by boat. I could have brought them down.

Give me a shout if I can help.......619-672-0354

The primary environmental concern with your sewage is not the urine (which is basically sterile) .

As I understand it, you can take a leak off the end of your dock, but if all you have in the holding tank is urine, you cannot discharge it.

Am I reading this correctly, I don't want to get fined.

Kingfish

Rob, My 28 FBC no gen set, tower or hard top. It has an arch, bimini, 3 sided enclosur. Usaually fish overnites, leave 9-10 PM back to the dock 7-9 PM next nite. Four fat boys, 65 gal. bait tank with 3 scoops of bait ( approx. 540 lbs.) 3-30 packs of beer +, rods-reels, misc and maybe some food. If ...

A friend of mine was the Capn' on the "OP" at that time. I'll see if I can get some of his thoughts.

Kingfish

Just opened a Photobucket account, we'll see what happens Kevin.

One pic of my boat, if this works anyone can do it! LOL!!

Kingfish

Kevin,

Thank you for the pic's. Your boat is really looking great.

By the way, if your ever in San Diego I have a job for you. LOL!

Kingfish

Kevin,

I also would like to see the pics, if it's not too much trouble.

Thanks..........

Our 28 FBC didn't have a lower station when we bought it. I couldn't be happier. We would have lost alot of storage without the starboard locker, we carry a lot of Sh*t when we go out. We have a three sided enclousure of grey strataglass (protects from the Sun) and no weather problems (we don't leav...

I refer to that as blond !!

Kingfish

Tony,

I have the AP16 on my B28, and couldn't be happier (installed last year).

Got rid of the Comnav 1420 (POS).

Kingfish

So what is the most anyone has spent on fuel in a one month span? Just curious. A little off topic but what the heck![/quote]

Sept 06' 2 offshore trips = approx. $700.00.

Not bad, Huh :shock: :shock:

Kingfish

One more site to look at for wire, cable and connectors.

Kingfish

Harry,

It could also mean.........In My Humble Opinion.

Kingfish

I see what you mean about the height, that would be a concern.

I'm in the process of installing a Furuno 10 1/4" NavNet on my 28. It is wider than the 962 but not as tall. But it is large!

Kingfish

I haven't fished with this Capt. But friends of mine have and highly recomend him. For what it's worth.

Enjoy you trip!

Kingfish

Eddy,

Not to take anything away from Tony's air filters, I ordered them but would not fit my application (170'S). I ended up with universal K&N's.

If you'd like pics I'll e-mail them.

Kingfish

Sounds like a real rocket ship.

In our B28 we have a Norcold, couldn't be with out it. It's set up to hold a 30 pak. of Coor's + a 12 pak. of Coors right next to it on the bottom shelf. The shelf above still has room for lunch meat and cheese + extras and space in the door. I've tried different beers but can't fit the same configu...

Red is better than blue. My gauges are all red except for the one that is blue and the blue makes it hard to read when its real snotty. Science wise says that the rods and cones in your eyes take the longest to percive red than any other color in the spectrum. The ability of your eye to return to s...

Kingfish

Congrats to the little guy!!

Thats why we do it!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Kingfish

Kevin,

On my B28 the Paneltronics panel is located just inside the door to port on the "Head" bulkhead. It is flush mounted in the cabin, it's about 2" deep in the head. It's an AC-DC panel.

If you'd like pic's send me your e-mail address.

Kingfish

I'll be on the look out here in San diego, if you are around Mission Bay!!

Kingfish

If I was in the market for a fuel tank, I would contact Danny @ High Tide Marine and check out their fiberglass tank. With fiberglass you don't have the worries of corrosion or cracks which lead to leaking fuel.

Just my .02 centavos.

Kingfish

Depending on what size tank we're talking about that is alot of weight mounted that far aft.

I have a custom OffShore 65 gal. tank located at the step up on my B28. I can't imagine 455 lbs. less bait on the transom.

If you'd like I could e-mail pics.

Kingfish

If nothing else, the drunk rails let me mount 10 extra rod holders.

Nobody can have too many rods!!

Kingfish

Same size and same weight "I" think.

More CI displacement, diff. turbo and diff. injectors ?

Kingfish

Had that happen to me once. Just loosened the set screws in the rotor and slid it back a tad. No problem.

Kingfish

I have the Yanmar 170'S in my 28 . It's not a rocket ship, 17 to 19 kts. at 2900 RPM is the speed I cruise at fully loaded for fishing. 3400 RPM'S is WOT. Out here because of conditions I can't always cruise at that speed. Bill Fuller has the 240'S in his 28. Maybe he'll chime in. I'm very pleased w...

Kingfish

Hal, what RPM'S were you turning for 15 kts ? Bill Fuller has the 230 Yanmars as I recall in his 28 FBC, and is very pleased. maybe he'll chime in. I on the other hand have the 170 Yanmars in my 28 FBC. Believe me, it's no rocket ship. With four fat guys, 150-200 lbs of ice, 3 scoops of live bait, 6...

I've seen here in SoCal the use of ground up Wanut shells used as a stripper in place of sand. (Now I'm talking cars) Sand is brutal on sheet metal where as the Walnut media is not.

Why wouldn't it work on a boat?
