Re: Buying a 12 meter conv. Need Frig

We have 671 TIB's and cruise about 20 MPH at 2000 RPM's. At this speed we burn about 40 gallons per hour. If you are talking about the front Salon windows, a previous owner removed them and glasses it all over to both "update" the look of the boat and to get rid of leaks.

Is this a perfect fit to the cutout in the 12 meter?

Lottanerv
Delray Beach Fl

It was for us, but the cut out dimensions based on the West Marine link are 52-7/8"H x 23-1/4"W x 23-3/4"D to verify.

We are a 1988 12 meter International Sedan with DD 671 TIB's. So kind of close, also only about 2 hours away in Fort Myers.

We love our Mastervolt, and the remote monitor we installed in the panel.

Re: F32 Vibration Briefly in Reverse

You want to see vibration, try backing and pivoting with 2 diesels while chasing a fish.

Re: 1981 6.5 onan generator

Marine gensets have come a long, long way over the last 40 years. Here in Florida, we can boat all year long and we rely on the genny for the fridges, battery charger, icemaker and air conditioning. It is as important to our experience as are the main engines. RWS I agree. For us: No Generator = No...

Re: 1981 6.5 onan generator

We dumped our Onan shortly after we bought the boat and it crapped out. We went with a Westerbeke 7.6 EGTD. We run it probably 300 hours a year.

Re: Everyone's favorite subject...VACUFLUSH!

Great info.

Mine is still going strong, but it sounds like this may be an age related thing at some point, so it may only be a matter of time.

Re: 1989 mid cabin anchor chain

thanks for that to be clear I'm only looking for a way to secure the anchor while underway seems as if there are many ways to grab the chain with a line (mantus chain hook for one) does anyone have a good way to keep tension on the line which in turn would keep tension on the chain while underway? ...

We use one of these Mantus chain hooks, and it is awesome.
