In my boat I have 2 CAT3208 engines from the 1990's. They each can generate 375 horse power which is a lot of power to control.
This is my log of the engine use and servicing:
20/7/2024
Ran engines at 1800 rpm and was doing 10 knots. At some point I smell overheating and check the engine room. The hose bend after the seawater intake burst and engine room is filled with water 30 min from catastrophic levels.
I went over all the hose bends and the all are old and look bloated.
