    Motor Boats Monthly update

    Since the new format came out I had started buying it again every month. Sad to see the new format is being stopped. It had taken on its own distinct identity from MBY following the changes.

    Cummins QSB5.9 experiences?

    I've had one for 18 months now on a swift 34 and so far very pleased with it. It had a leak from the water pump at the time of the pre-purchase survey and this was replaced as part of the purchase. No leaks on the pump since. As mentioned in the other thread on daily checks, I do check all the...
