    Those engines are amazing! The coast guard used those engines in there 41foot UTB (utility boat)! I worked on them for many years, everything is very easy to work on for a beginner diesel mechanic! VT903M are legendary! Another thing, most of what you're seeing at higher rpm is steam coming from the exhaust not "smoke", a turbo re build would be a great idea and find someone to change out the impellers as well as adjust the valves! Bad ass boat!

    Welcome to boat ownership. A few things that may help you out.
    1) The radar is not for weather. It's for proximity. Extremely helpful at night. It's not obsolete whatsoever. It's completely stand alone. It sends and receives it's own data. At night, when you run over a piling or someones boat, you'll wish you had it. It also adds a lot of value to your boat.
    2) The other items on the dash appear to be auto pilot. They are not obsolete and are extremely helpful with the radar on long hauls. Get them working. They will also add value to your boat.
    3) You don't need to register the name of your boat with the USCG if you're recreational.
    "The federal government requires registration of certain vessels with the Coast Guard to prove the boat's nationality. The system also facilitates trade between states and allows certain vehicles to enter restricted waters. Vessels of 5 net tons or more used for fishing or in coastal trade must register, unless they are exempt. Net tonnage refers to the volume of a boat, not its weight or cargo capacity. If your boat is more than 25 feet long, it is likely to measure at least 5 net tons."
    4) Practice docking! Spend a day. Then spend a day when it's windy!
    You have a great boat with a little care. You'll learn a lot.

    • @HavardSlettvold
      @HavardSlettvold 4 년 전 +86

      I'm not going to disagree here, radar is a super helpful tool. I would like to point out that this might not be a sea going vessel. If all you will do is travel on rivers and near the coast, in good conditions, there is no real need for radar. Radar helps navigate in low visibility or when you might encounter a lot of traffic going irregular paths. Out at sea, oncoming traffic could come from any angle, but near the coast and on rivers, the directions of travel and lanes are usually much more defined. All in all, these people just got their boating license, and I wouldn't expect a long expedition right now. So removing the radar, which might be broken even though they have no great understanding of its workings, is probably fine.

    First thing I would do is get it surveyed by a marine surveyor, you never know what you will find. Next the fuel might be old which is why your getting some smoke, so I would get some injector cleaner through as the first so as to rule out the number one cause of smoking.
    I hope you intend to put a radar back as they are almost a must have if you anywhere but your home port and they work with your auto helm equipment.
    Also make sure you get an AIS transmitter/ receiver fitted (if it doesn't have one). Also get the EPERB re-registered to you and the new name of the boat.

    My dude you need some specific things for that boat.
    A proper AIS system
    A GPS and no not your phone but a marine GPS.
    Radar is a bit optional since you probably won't be going to far out with it and most likely not when fog or rain is a possibility.
    Should you consider doing night sailing with your boat then you need it. There is zero arguments for not avoiding it then. BTW radar signals don't work like you explained but that's a whole nother theme.
    Depth finder would be a good investment but isn't a necessity.
    Upgrade your navigational lights to LEDs for better visibility and make sure you buy marine LED lights and cases.

    If it's more than 39', it's a yacht.
    Less than 39, it's a cabin cruiser.
    So you're not wrong calling it a yacht!

      My family has been in the boat business for over 50 years. The ones who can actually afford to buy yachts dont know shit about them and dont respect nautical tradition. I had a spinal surgeon buy a $2,000,000 yacht that ran aground in the channel that leads to his house. He didnt check the charts to see if the channel was deep enough to accomodate the yacht......
