    Hatteras 54 Anteva

    Engine rebuild to factory spec may set one back about £1,8 - £2K per cylinder ... so £34 - 35K plus removal/install (removal should be OK on a Hatteras as I believe there is a hatch above each engine for that purpose)...

    Need help finding info on boat ( Jupiter 40, sea ranch / ark angel )

    AQAD32 ... parts are not readily available ... Family friends bought same boat new with same engines in 1977 ... lasted a couple of years, weak cylinder head seal and boat did struggle to get up on the plane if you had anything heavy, such as a dinghy, near the stern... 12-13 knot cruise when...

    Breathing bottle

    Presumeably the "500" refers to a size measure, so let us assume that is 1/2 liter internal volume. @ 200 BAR, that equates to 100L. Assuming we (at rest and at surface level) exchange approx 0.5L at a rate of 12x each minute which gives us a consumption rate of 6L/Min and triple that with...

    Re-engine Sunseeker Camargue 51

    At 625HP, your engine cannot be a 6V71 !! The only engine at that rating was a 6V92 DDEC with electronic governance and injectors ... so what you will need to look for is a engine with that name/code combination ... Such as... Detroit Marine Diesel Engines pair 6V 92 TA DDEC 625 hp 24 volt...

    Seagull scarers/deterrents- any suggestions???

    String a fishing line from VHF antenna/arch/high point and forward .... preferrably in a X formation. Seagulls will not see line from high, but will discover something obstructing landing zone when heading for landing and veer off ... Not seeing the obstruction from a distance, but noticing...

    Genoa to Gothenburg or London?

    15M powerboat will probably be too tall for the bridges, and with bonze props swinging at 1.3 M are highly likely to be dinged ... Land transport and plonk in sea in Netherland or near Cuxhaven for then to take through Kiel canal will probably be the fastest/cheapest combination ..
