  2. And another battery charger question

But there is also a 12v system on board, providing batt capacity to start the genny and provide a 12v "house" bank that is actually almost unused. I have two 12v batts, in...

  3. More Harm Than Good?

    Due to travel schedules, there are times when a few months lapse in between available trips to get to the boat (53 Sportfish- 1271TI's). There are also times when I can only go over to check it briefly in the evening, or I am alone and too much of a hassle to take it out for a run. My question is:...

  7. Injector and Valve Adjustments while out of water

    Wondering if it makes much of a difference whether I have the mechanic adjust the valves and injectors with the boat in the water or out of the water. Only negative I can think of out of the water is that he cannot turn engines over to test. My babies smoke like Cheech and Chong when there cold –...

  14. Grounding/bounding

    To avoid further corrupting the shower head thread with this stuff... I found a very interesting article that essentially says the opposite of what most stuff on this site says about bonding.
