      I remember picking up a vehicle in the mountains, and when I brought it back home, it had the same problem. I brought it from a climate and elevation difference and I had a redo the timing on it something with the climate and elevation messes with vehicles..

      SURCs were the older version, this is a Riverine Patrol Boat or RPB for short. I was in Riverine Squadron 2 for the first 5 years they were around and actually was a coxswain and mechanic that whole time too. All the info he puts out is pretty on point except for how he pronounces Riverine. It came from combining River and Marine, Riverine.

    That reverse bucket you were talking about, allows the engines to stay in drive while the boat is moving in reverse.. that way there's no need to physically shift the gears into reverse, you just flip a switch and drop the bucket... saves transmissions/engines and also works incredibly well.

      A lot of boats just use epoxy to seal stuff up. Works great but you do need 72 for a full cure and that curved surface would be a pain in the ass to coat. Weight might also be an issue since they were trying to reduce the weight on the military boat.
      It would also look kind of bad on that boat if I'm honest.

    few years back we were able to get one of the Norwegian Equivilants to this Navy Seals Boat and changed out some of the stuff on it, including the guns, which it STILL HAD. the only weapon on it we kept was the water douser cannon, which basically is a overglorified and armored Fire Truck Water Cannon. we changed out the back MG3 with a Air Soft variant of the MG3 and the side guns as well with the same. we use it in Naval Air Soft battles, and it's an absolutely insane amounts of awesome!

    Hey so I’ve been looking into the Susan Powell case. Particularly paying more attention to what Charlie the son on the interview tape said about how Susan stayed at dinosaur national park. so I began just researching some parks in Utah and neveda and Idaho. And I came across one named clover camp ground that the trail looks like the shape of a long neck dinosaur on the map. So I had a thought what if Charlie saw the map trail in the shape of a dinosaur? If Charlie saw the trail map of the camp ground as a dinosaur maybe that’s why he called it dinosaur national park. It may not be clover camp ground but what if there’s a park that has their map trail in the shape of a dinosaur. I don’t have very good maps of the campgrounds online that they would provide on site, but I thought it may be something to look into.

I was a FSR for them from 2004 to 2007 which includes 14 months in IRAQ. Reach out if you want to know more about the history.

    My Hinckley picnic boat uses the exact same running gear. 36’ only you can drive it using a joystick. You twist the knob to steer, 3 modes. Docking , power steering and helm. Docking when you stop pushing the stick forward or backwards the jet shoots straight down so it makes it great for maneuvering. If you hold the stick port or starboard and push forward then back, forward and back it will turn in its own radius. It has bow thrusters too but you don’t need them. If you ever make it to the coast of Maine I’ll let you try it out if want a tour of the area.

    Hey Dave, you do realise that amperage doesn’t really matter with regard to working on or near the water, voltage is more important. So changing the alternators from 24 volt 500 amp, to 24 volt 80 amp has no effect on safety, it just means that they do not put as much load on the engines which makes them more efficient

    • @christopherdecker8171
      @christopherdecker8171 Před 2 lety

      It is the amps that are most harmful. They say under 50 volts, with less amps is safer. Granted you need volts to create any power, but in theory what he did is better in case of any accidents.

    • @nickcollins1528
      @nickcollins1528 Před 2 lety +3

    • @jonathankeith2547
      @jonathankeith2547 Před 2 lety

      @@nickcollins1528 what I meant was that he is still running 24 volt, it only takes about 50 milliamperes across your heart to kill you. If a fault or accident occurred the smaller 80 amp output would not be any safer, they just take less engine power to run so would be a bit more efficient. I doubt it would even be noticeable with those 500 hp engines running Hamilton Jets. Efficiency is not really the goal here, performance is what that setup is aiming for.

    • @grahamstretch6863
      @grahamstretch6863 Před 2 lety +3

      You are all forgetting one thing, it has a lead acid battery powered 24volt supply which can easily output hundreds of amps, I mean it starts those two big diesels so it can probably easily supply 300 cranking amps if not more! 🤷‍♂️

    • @jonathankeith2547
      @jonathankeith2547 Před 2 lety +1

      @@grahamstretch6863 my point exactly, changing the amp output of the alternators doesn’t change the voltage of the system. DC voltages up to about 50 volts are relatively safe with regards to electrocution, AC systems even a little higher. This is why 48 volt DC is common in off grid solar / battery systems. My initial comment relates to changing the alternators to a lower current output won’t make the system any safer, just slightly less load on the engines.

    The "bumpers" on the side of your boat are called "collars" by Safe Boats. I see you repaired the collars with Line-X, the original coating was Rhino Lining. I may have cut parts that made your boat... I vaguely remember the RPB (Riverine Patrol Boat) having a double row of seats down the center of the boat, all facing outward. If you happen to buy one of the 25' Defender boats, I may be able to help you with some information.
