Thats a saloon you idjut

+1

The salon is just a boating term for lounge really, just like the head, which comes from the ancient practice of going to the head of the boat and hanging the freckle/tackle overboard to take a dump/slash (someone might get the hidden joke there)...... :rofl:

Rivieras are way cool, but a bit like a hotel you don't want a wild party in because everything is so expensively finished.

Mine is a custom Bruce Roberts Waverunner 38B made 40ft long with rear pods. The styling is a little dated compared to the Rivieras but I can live with the massive amount of space it has instead. It was mostly finished by a professional builder who got sick and couldn't work, sold to a guy that did a bit but found it was taking too much time and money and I got it for a third of what has been spent so far. Still needs motor, steering and rudder but should be pretty easy. Full cedar interior, 2 staterooms, salon, kitchen, head, 3 decks for lounging on plus I'll setup a marlinboard/swimdeck and dive bottle/gear storage and compressor for fills.

Nice!! Just pulled up his site before, the floor plans for the 38A are pretty open. You could say, family/drunk mate(s) friendly :D haha. I’d assume the A and B are much the same? As I couldn’t see any listings for B’s.

Going to keep it down to Gold Coast?

The aft well deck on the B is enclosed to make a stateroom. nice big one too and so the rear deck sits on top of that for drunken sunning and napping.

This site shows the B http://www.bruceroberts.com.au/power/wr38.htm

And this one as well http://www.bruceroberts.com/public/HTML/de...description.htm

I'm just looking at keeping on a mooring at Rudi Marrs' as some of the other places are pretty expensive. They have a storage area for tenders and it's really just somewhere to park it until you use it. If I was going to spend time living aboard I'd put it somewhere nicer though.

Can’t believe I didn’t even see the B straight under the A listing, lol. I didn’t have my glasses on, clearly.

Never rang the EPA about a license as it doesnt look like you can keep a moniter in Queensland, plus I won't have a place to keep it if dad ends up working at Riviera, which is obviously on the Gold Coast

Will you be moving to the coast josh is your dad goes to riviera?

I’m not sure. I like the Gold Coast better then Brisbane. But Bris has more to offer in terms career in my opinion. Just seems to be more jobs for bigger companies. Obviously exceptions to this rule… But yer lol

I probably wouldn’t and use the time as a brake, then move back in realistically..

There in Coomera, so I think he is talking about living around the Helensvale to Hope Island end of the Goldy

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
