So, in theory you would think it should be possible because nmea2000 has standard PGNs for alerts and notifications. Unfortunately it appears that maretron, at least with the dsm410, does not support the standard pgn 126983. Instead they implement their own system of PGNs for alerts 130819...

I've reached out to them a few times over the past weeks and they've been responsive. That said I agree with you about all of your complaints with n2kview and maretron. Of particular frustration is if you have several devices reporting the same PGN. Say dc voltage. However, it does seem like...

99% sure my buddy that just replaced his flopper stopper pole on his Nordhavn 68 bought a forespar.

From what I can see the nac-2 computer that comes with the ap44 packs doesn't have any nmea0183 input or output. This means you're going to have to be hooking it up to your n2k network. Which is fine since your scx20 only connects via n2k as well. I think the adaptive stuff isn't that...

What simrad AP are you looking at? There are several and they have various connection options. I am running a furuno/timezero system with a simrad ap70 and have been quite happy with the setup.

I like to use starboard to mount things like electronics too because it doesn't rot. But as noted gluing stuff to it works poorly. What I've done in a bunch of instances is take a dovetail router bit and run some grooves across the back of the panel. Or, I've set my tablesaw at 45 degrees and...

I pulled out a vacuflush system with 4 heads, 4 accumulators, m pump and replaced them all with 8100s. Toilets have worked great.

How much were the parts? None of the shops seem to list their prices on the web without requesting a quote. Im just looking for rough numbers. Brian

I'd go stainless tees. It's not really that many ports and you could assemble it with a bunch of short nipples and Tees pretty simply. Then they make NPT to pex adapters that transition to pex. As was mentioned, the tri clamp is great for easy cleaning in a food situation, but here has no...

Doesn't seem like as big a problem in the sound. If you go up into BC gulf islands there seems to be a lot more of this issue.

Its hard to tell but is that matte gray material actually the bezel of the monitor or just a filler plate for your dash?

The fins are likely larger because the boat has stabilization at rest (STAR) via the ABT fins. The change from the standard ABT system to the STAR system usually adds a hydraulic accumulator tank and larger fins.

Thats the video i referenced earlier. As mentioned I think it comes down to. whats your budget? How handy are you?

Forum rules aside, I'd wager doing it this way is actually worse than just coming clean about what you are fishing for.

You could/can totally single hand a 62 if need be.

While the 62 and 63 may be similar and in the same size class the boats all kind of ride differently so its worth seeing if you can go on some rides. An example is the 55. People love that boat, but when I rode around on one I was not impressed compared to the 62.

we were 160k mid fuel and water. We'd topped off in Sitka early in the season and then ran around AK and back to the yard in Anacortes. Its a pretty similar weight number ive heard from other 62s as well. Yeah I don't think anyone will argue that the engine room on a 62 is great. That...

Out of curiosity, guy with a boat, what does your boat dead hang at in the slings? I see all the GT numbers but im curious as to weight. Two months ago we hung in the slings at 160k lbs. In one of the yacht tech videos theres a clip of a 62 and a 63 running side by side. The 63 appears to...

The old one is big enough you can just make an adapter plate. The bolt hole circle on a 5 bolt is 2.125" diameter. Best to just convert to a 5 bolt. You will gain a LOT more options.

Whats the diameter of the 6 bolt part? If its big enough you could just make an adapter plate that adapts from the 6 bolt to the 5.

Lugger 1276 has a internal pressure relief valve and bypass at the fuel transfer pump.

In a lot of cases what everyone says is true about needing to send it in. Not all though. EG if its a furuno fa150 theres a super secret code to get back into the menu.

So, my approach is this. My boat has a range of hose sizes in the boat. 1/4" on the davit, and the main system which runs the thrusters, windlass, and stabilizers has 3/8, 1/2 and 3/4". The longest run that i could possibly need to replace is 50' of 3/4". The main trunkline is 50'. I carry...

Steve, when the beetronics monitors are panel mounted it appears that the only way to control the monitor is the remote control? Is this true?

I bought a sun cbba-lan for 81$ before tax in march of this year.
