    Great video. Our new-to -us 400 Sea Ray Sedan bridge has Cat 3126 engines that look very similar to yours. What are your engines and HP? This will be my first attempt at winterizing a closed cooled system. Sure seems a lot easier than the raw water like our former boat. One other thing, I really would like to just pump compressed air through the system vs adding the pink stuff like I did on our old boat. My fear is that next season might take a while to get rid of the antifreeze taste. Thoughts? Thanks for sharing your experience and your videos!

      @MyBoatLife 2 месяца назад

      Thanks for watching! Great boat you have and yes we have the same engines on our 410DA- CAT 3126… been doing our engines this way for years with no issues & once you have process down it’s easy. For water systems some people do the air but we prefer running pink through and knowing it’s protected from any trace of water. We flush it in the spring & use a product called Spring Fresh - works great. We have a few other videos on this - how we winterize & how we flush out in spring. Thanks for following & let’s hope winter goes fast!! 😊

    It appears that the new plans they are introducing now on their website say that we would need the boat priority plan in order to have coverage and use it while in motion on the water even within coastal waters. In fact, they say you will only have stationary use while at a marina. So, I'm understanding that if we are moving at all in the water, we need the boat priority plan unless we only want to use it while stationary at a marina. I'm just learning so I could be wrong.

    • @MyBoatLife
      @MyBoatLife 2 месяца назад

      Actually if you go to the FAQ page for Roam ($50/mo plan) it says: *In-motion use up to 100 Mph / 160 Kph *Coastal coverage (up to 12 nautical miles off the coast) in territorial waters where Starlink provides active coverage around the world for up to 5 consecutive days at a time and a total of 60 days over the course of a year most boaters are close to land/coastal so the Boat plan does not seem necessary unless you are using it constantly in motion or further off shore

    Sailing from Darwin in Northern Australia around the East Coast to Melbourne, I will mostly be within 30nm of the mainland, but would it work if I was say 50nm offshore? Remote areas of Northern Australia included. Starlink coverage map says the entire continent of Australia says it has coverage. Slow data would be okay. Boat plan too pricey for a cruiser like me. Roam package?

    • @MyBoatLife
      @MyBoatLife 2 месяца назад

      Sounds amazing! You can see standard kit, but if you are that far offshore the Roam plan may not work for you - it says 15nm offshore and there are restrictions on how long you can use it offshore. So you would need the Boats plan for in motion & offshore use. Bit more expensive but according to their maps there appears to be coverage around Australia. I suppose you could *try the Roam & then upgrade if needed? Definitely read fine print in service plan faqs. Good luck - amazing adventure ahead!!

    I hear this a lot about marina's wifi infrastructure, and one of the problem is that marinas are usually not setup properly as they ar not in the Internet business. I'm a network engineer with many low end and high end certifications, and years of experience, and I have typically setup customers that can potentially have this problem with a proxy server. A proxy server is a computer running on high quality softaware, installed locally, and what it does is that when people access the web, the proxy caches (stores) the page locally, and if anyone requests that same page (website), the proxy sends the cached page, and only requests any update to the page from the ISP, and sends the whole thing to an end user. Unless the marina gets bandwidth from a T1 or several T1s and higher, which I think they won't as they provide the Wifi service for "free", when the marina is full, the network will be bogged down, as there's not enough bandwidth for everybody. I could see if you're are on the hook and want to use the Starkink. I would too, and plan on do it on my boat, but marina Wifi's are a pain. On a side note, the proxy server acts as sor of a security device, as it's the only one that really cocnnects to the internet, the end users only get the data from the proxy, so only th proxy server IP address is exposed. This is 30+ year old technology that still works today, not sure why is seldom used. But this is not a network class.

    If you have 5G coverage at the marina, try the T-Mobile or even Verizon whole home wifi towers. Just need 120vac outlet and you have wifi all over the boat and dock area. It moved with you but coverage will depend on the 5G map. 2 years with it at the dock and I work, stream, and use it for my Fire Tvs on the boat and its great.

      we haven’t installed it yet ourselves but I’ve seen several boats that look like they run the cable from radar into their cabin & have it permanently mounted

    Good info, thanks! Just curious which charts you use with your Garmin? I am trying to upgrade to Navionics+ on my Garmin 1243xsv.

    I have taken out every. single. screw. I could find, but the cabinet still wont come out. i even slid knife around to break any seals or glue. I have the new Vit fridge ready to go and the old fridge is already t the recycler, but i am stumped on the cabinet! Can you help me?

    • @MyBoatLife

      Is your boat a Sundancer or Express cruiser? We had to remove the cabinet on our Sundancer because we couldn’t get the old fridge out but from what I understand you can get the old out on the Express without removing the cabinet. For us there was one last screw hidden under the step there was a block of wood under the step & that supported the fridge so look there - that was the last one we found that did the trick for us! I hope this helps!!! 🤞

    How do you find the heat absorption and how much traction there is when it's wet?

    • @MyBoatLife
      @MyBoatLife 3 месяца назад

      We have it mostly shaded but on hottest July day any sun spots were a little hot which we found to be true with carpet too. As far as traction it’s very good - gets wet a lot coming out of water and no issues - surface kinda grips feet a bit the way it’s woven it’s not entirely flat so never seems slick or anything. And cushy. We really do love it.

    Typical gas engines use approximately 30 - 40% more fuel consumption at cruise than a comparable diesel. The fuel consumption isn't even close
