Post C52 2017 Salvage


I am interested in a 2017 C52 fly bridge that ran a ground on a sandbar in the Illinois river. Cabins took water half way up as well as engine room. Anybody have experience with what challenges might be most costly? I assume engines are salvageable from actions taken, so question is on the other electrical systems, etc. Anybody have first hand knowledge on this boat. https://www.galatiyachts.com/yachts/det ... 2/46/lq02/

Post 220 crusader engine dies and won’t restart


I’ve got a 1984 Carver Mariner twin crusader engines 220’s

Last year my starboard engine would cut out every now and then but it would restart this year when I went to start it I had no power to the ignition.

But when I put it in the water the engine ran fine for about five minutes and then died and would not restart. When I turn the key the red light for my V Dr. does not light up on that side wher ...

Post Vibration between 1800-2100 rpm


My boat was recently surveyed 3 weeks ago when outside the water and shafts and props were found to be fine. However, when in the water, there is a wicked vibration/shimmy at 1800-2100 RPM that goes away at lower RPM's and when higher than that.... checked the engines by keeping the floor panels open when running and they run perfectly. Interestingly, cannot feel that vibration much when sitting down below near the engines... so its definitely not in the boat. Is that just normal as a "bad rpm s ...

Post 450 Voyager- anybody upgrade the flybridge stereo?


Looking for ideas on placement. I have a fairly new Fusion ud650 and Im yanking the jbl 6.5's and adding 2 pairs of infinity 6.5's and 1 infinity 10" sub. All will be powered with a new amp. I enjoy fairly decent sound. Not over the top sanbar type sound but quality non the less. Has anybody upgraded the flybridge sound? Id like to get ideas of what you have done and where you put your speakers.
Thanks
