Excellent Question!

When I ordered the brake pads I went over the setup
with Wilwood (The Caliper manufactuer).
We did not consider the application a high usage/demand
such as road racing or track or even Automotive.
The N2 cannot be stopped for more then 30 or 40
seconds. It should have a cooled down period aswell
considering this duty cycle I think It will work.

Another drawback No charge no powersteering
when ya holding it stopped.

I have thought about putting a spare belt in there around
the Shaft. Changing this belt will most likley require
engine removal.
Thats why I will keep the backhoe around.

We decided to add a shore charge for each voltage
the 24 is a 30 amp and the 12 is a 20 amp.

It is wired to a female shore power plug in the cockpit.


This 46 Skater has a Storage compartment right behind
the rear seats. That is where these are located.
The cockpit is about 3 feet smaller then the
pleasure cockpit found on most.

This is where the freshwater 40 gallon tank is going
for the compressor rinse.

Gerry. Again luv the thread ! Do you have a pontoon boat/barge for the backhoe ? No power steering far from shore or close to the docks, I wouldmyself twice @ least in the belt area. Again thanks, jay "I'CE SCREAM" ps to post after #154

Gerrry, I think that some co. makes a remote electrically operated hydraulic power steering devise read about it some where mag.thread or ? if I see it again will advise u on it take care jay off to K.W.

Also if I may, does n2 actually get stopped or only slowed for shifting and how much time to slow and accelerate it during say a forward to reverse to forward thrust shift proceedure ? j

This is what I have and really do not want to use it is big
heavy and draws 65amps at 12 volt.

I have lost a powersteering motor and have been offshore
it is a pain in the Arz But You really only need when ya get close to the dock. Where I launch it is a straight shot.

I could always call Paul to tow my Lard AZZ in.The
Outrageous Rescue team!

Depending on the neumatic pressure I should be able to stop
it in instantly.

Remember it stops it all. props, drives ,crash boxes.


Here after looking at it pondering and consuming
3-4 Coronas my pee brain did this.

I'm going to Key West this week on the Poker Run. If you go down there look me up. You can go out on my boat. Looks like you will be 170 -190 when your done. HANG ON!!!!! I'm staying in the 140 range and banging pistons.

Stu sent me a couple of DVD,s They are over the top
with some good footage of your boat.
Dont know if would want my ugly mug in there
Thanks Jim for the invatation!

Here are some pictures of other Turbine installations.


Glad to know that I,m not the only Fruit loop
