Great video, love the startup/pre-check information. I have a question: I’ve driven a lot of smaller twin outboards, and was surprised to see a similar throttle layout on this boat, which has three outboards. Is there a way to isolate the throttle function of the center engine with that throttle layout? How does that work? Thanks in advance.
Hey thanks for the comment! Great question, and it's very simple: on boats with 3 or more outboards, when you engage one throttle, it only uses the outboard engine. When you put port forward, starboard reverse, the throttle control puts only the outboard port engine forward, and the starboard outboard engine in reverse, the center engine(s) stays in neutral, until you place both throttles in forward gear. Even the boats now with 5-6 outboards will have only two throttles and operate in a similar fashion.
YEAH YOU COULD NOT HAVE PICKED A BETTER CITY 🌃 TO START FROM, I WAS BORN IN RAISED IN POMPANO BEACH 🏖️ 1958 THE REAL HOME 🏠 TOWN BOY 💯💯💯💯‼️‼️‼️‼️ OH YEAH IVE BEEN BOATING 🚤🚤🚤🚤ALL MY LIFE 🤪😜😆😀💯💯💯💯‼️‼️‼️‼️
When i had my sea ray i would drop the nose ( trim all the way in ) and push through that stuff. Made for a smoother ride. Although you use a little more fuel. But it beats beating & banging. Was that boat trimmed all in ?
I was running with the trim tabs about halfway down, and yes for sure its a lot more comfortable cutting through with the bow. I could have used a bit more weight, or more bow length for the speed I was going to smooth it out
@@havenyachtdelivery58 i was actually wondering if the Motors were trimmed or are trimmable. I was running a Bravo 3. Ive never run 300hp Merc outboards. Can u trim the Motors out & in ? I Would think You should be able to. & im guessing u have Hydraulic trim tabs on the Boat too.
I would typically only wear one in heavy seas - that day was a bit choppy but not at all what I would consider dangerous conditions. How about you, do you always wear one offshore?

@@OcRefrig Gotcha. Yes they were trimmed, I always do it at least a little for the efficiency
Very informative post!👍😉
glad you think so!
You don’t have your own offshore jacket with you ?

Hey Jesse, thanks!. Yeah lets connect, send me a message on IG @haven_yacht_deliveries
When you "We're taking", do you have mouse in your pocket or do you mean us and you?
I used to get to deliver Sea Ray Sundancers to Page, AZ. cross the state line and sign papers. drive all way home . Deliver boat Somewhere? USA...
Right near lake Powell, that is a really cool place to boat
That would be a nice job just to drive boats
It's not too bad!
What we lost when we went to 4 stroke is instant throttle response.
What’s the trip cost the boat owner
Hey Shawn, because this was a local delivery, and only took a few hours we charged an hourly rate
Sloppy effort
