Wow. That's pretty cool. Wonder how she does on fuel?
|
Personally I don't think a rotary is the best fit for a boat, but it's still pretty cool.

triple 2400hp diesels, the size of these motors were incredible, I was in awe of the engine compartment
could not even get it in one photo http://robx-7.nopistons.com/d/4473-1/dru+020.jpg |

you should see the engine on the 115 foot yacht in the marina right now, it's guy who owns the hotel and marina. They were doing oil changes. Only takes 4 50 gallon drums of oil to do an oil change LOL The engine room has 3 dedicated ac units, it's ****** awesome!!

That boat was tiny, only a 85' I was in that engine compartment when it was 90 degrees with 95% humidity, it was like being in a air conditioned room!
Speaking of that oil change- goes to show you if they GAVE you the boat you could afford to keep it. That boat I was working on holds 5000 gallons of fuel "so yeah you can use the boat, just fill the tanks" I painted its sister ship next to it in this picture, a 33' Hydrosports with triple 300 verados, and it was a ******* dinghy next to the tribute. We were making repairs in the tribute from the fire suppression system that someone had accidentally triggered. http://robx-7.nopistons.com/d/4391-1/dru+021.jpg |
Yup when we were in our old marina and diesel was through the roof, I watched one of the bigger yachts take $28,000 in fuel... HOLY ****!

"will that be cash or charge"
|
Is there a big market for diesel mechanics? With these things swimming around in money, I'd imagine it'd be like having a full-time pit crew.
