The new ride
So, after a lengthy hiatus, the Admiral and I are in a new ride. She's a 2005 Cruisers Yachts 500 Express, powered by Volvo D12 diesels rated at 715 hp each, and coupled to ZF 325-IV V-drive transmissions. Those of you who followed my previous blog: searay340restoration.blogspot.com are familiar with the format, but for the new people who may start to follow along, I'll try to post pictures and a description of each task that is completed, with a basic description of the engineering involved, and the goals to be met, with each post. So, stay tuned - there's lots more to come! This is a pic taken by the Admiral on the first day of our return trip from South Carolina to NY, where all the work will take place.
