Corti Creare
OCC members, Fred and Sandy onboard their catamaran Dakota Dream, were anchored at Antigua when this happened to their generator. It seems someone forgot to turn off the hot-wired raw water pump for their Northern Lights M673, 6 kw generator when they left the boat for Happy Hour. Upon returning to their boat, they realized the problem and shut down the still running raw water pump, too late. The generator was hydro-locked. This is what happens when an injector is removed to get raw water out of the cylinders. Ouch! Diesel and salt water sprays everywhere!!!
► We got to discover the Knysna 500SE at the Annapolis Boat Show, and just like the South African port from which it takes its name, the 500SE certainly has character - Knysna is a charming seaside town at the head of a bay-lagoon whose entrance is sporty with rough seas. Solidly built to withstand difficult conditions without damage, this catamaran is delivered highly equipped, and customization is the rule. The cockpit saloon is well sheltered, and the semi-flybridge helm station has a sunroof that allows the helmsman to be closed in if there’s bad weather. The traditional woodwork of the interior fittings is superb and evokes a neat British style. All with great comfort and maintaining a favorable displacement… ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: Knysna Yacht Company Architect: Angelo Lavranos Length: 50’ (15.24 m) Beam: 26’1” (7.96 m) Draft: 4’9” (1.44 m) Displacement: 35,275 lbs (16 t) Mainsail: 807 sq ft (75 m²) Genoa: 538 sq ft (50 m²) Fuel: 158 US gal (600 l) Water: 158 US gal (600 l) Engines: 2 x 57 HP ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!
