Just received my copy today. See the market is getting some attention and may help boost the sport. I see Chris Sunkin, is the contributing editor.

I got it in the mail also. So my question is why Chris Sunkin for the report in EB magazine. I have no idea who he is except he was up here at one time and left to start seriousoffshore.com

Seems the name comes up, thrown around a lot up here as a dog?

A couple years ago Engine Builder mag did a report from Bob Madera - Marine Kinetics from New York.

Here we go....................

I am guessing 297 responses. Almost 10 pages if you're setting is 30 responses per page. If this stays on the front page until after November 1 I am upping my guess to 423 responses.

Oh this is some funny azz shiit, here is a QUOTE:
I’ve seen sections of -12 3,500 psi hose affixed to a shiny red anodized AN adapter on a pump or cooler. The rigger failed to notice that the passage through that section was a third the size of the rest of his plumbing.
He saw this in the pictures I posted in "my oil problems from stock hardware" thread that I posted on here years ago and then ASKED me to post it on serious offshore before he became a pariah around here!!! I guess its not a lie though, he DID see it, just it was in MY pictures I posted, LMAO, Smitty

Oh this is EVEN cooler, in the comment section:
Sunkin built the motors in all 6 of my 41 Apache's. 927 hours on 1500hp bad azz blower motors and I haven't even had to change the oil yet!!!
