Fuel / engine problems
Sun, Mar 11, 2007 1:25 PM
We'll be running normally down the waterway at 7-8 kn, 2200-2400 RPM, when suddenly the engine will start surging and faltering and die. After some frantic maneuvering to get to the side orf the channel and anchor, and doing the usual trouble shooting, we are able to start the engine (Perkins 135) and proceed on.

If it keeps your two banks charged and doesn't die, why change?

I used to eat a lot of natural foods until learned that most people die of natural causes. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rich Gano" > Some time in the past, somebody posted a site at which one can type in > a location and time and get a view of the stars and/or constellations. > Would > that person please send me that link?

Echo charger on genset battery issue
Tue, Feb 26, 2008 8:06 AM
A properly balanced system will run without a fuss for years -- and most often die of old age. If you have to use an outside charger on it something is broke. Yes the echo charger will react badly to finding the genset's charge voltage on the battery. It seems as though you have correctly identified the reason the ProSine needed resetting.

Re: T&T: boarding ramp
Sun, Apr 19, 2009 7:03 AM
They can have a very finite life and die a violent death that could result in a serious injury to you, too. A fiberglass or wood boarding step or ramp would be a much better choice to my way of thinking. ____________________ C. Marin Faure GB36-403 "La Perouse" Bellingham, Washington

Re: T&T: Heeling and fuel tank crossover
Thu, Jun 4, 2009 4:12 PM
This boat ALWAYS had a list, and the fuel ran to the low side as we neared empty causing one engine to die. Arranging the fuel returns to both go to the high side solved the problem for the three hours we needed. Cross-over valves should be mandatory AND mostly closed.

Dangerous
Wed, Dec 9, 2009 9:21 PM
In my own opinion...if a fair percentage of people can DIE doing an activity then it might be classed as inherently dangerous. So comparing the number of people dying while boating and the number of people boating I'd say boating falls into that category for me...so I take all precautions I reasonably can to reduce the risk.
