Trawler, anyone?
The new Grand Banks 41 with Skyhook, looks awesome. Beautiful Salon,
apparently lots of room from the photos , and fast, too. 23 knots for a 41 foot Trawler is fast. Great range, as well. Another beauty that would be nice to own. |

Trawler, anyone?
Unfortunately there are major reliability issues with high performance diesels run at slow speed for extended periods of time. This from Cummins Diesel, with Mercruiser-Zeus Pods...dont remember reading that in the article...who's your Pro stating that? I dont think these are high-performance Diesels, either. |

Still not a thousand mile range. |

I NEVER stated it would be.I also stated I did NOT know the formula for calculation. That doesnt compute in the brains of the Dwarf Army, and their efforts to ruin a on-topic post. Wayne B blames, and insults the wrong person for a math calculation, but theres no mention of that, is there? Just like the Dwarf General Herring has stated...dont answer my posts...lol. Simple really, but not for the Dwarf Army ; they're too stupid to resist. |
