Default The Andrea Gail had a gasoline engine

schlackoff, a month at sea is the same as a month on shore, 720 hours. did you
intend to really say that the diesel engines used in commercial fishing boats
won't go even 800 hours before being in need of a teardown for a major
overhaul??

If not, why did you say that?

there you have it, folks, schlackoff telling us that the diesel engines

used
by
commercial fishermen are so unreliable that those engine have "to be torn
down"
after every trip to sea.

There's your reading comprehension problem shining through again. The
reason those diesel engines are so reliable is that they are usually
serviced after every long trip to sea.


of course, schlackoff, by tearing the down to do a major overhauls after

ever
trip, right?


Depends on how long the trip was and how long the next trip will be.
The fact is that they often (not all the time) do a teardown between
such trips. Accept it, deal with it. Don't stress over it.

sure they do, schlackoff. sure they do. but first they "clean the plugs".


They might.
