Goodmorning Sailors, This is a question in the category: is this normal?
As long as we have our single QSC490 trawler I have always noticed certain revpoints where there is much more shaking of the engine than others. In our case this is between 800 and 900 and between 1550 and 1850. Especially the latter window is quite noticeable. Up to 1500 revs the engine runs very smooth but beyond that you feel a roughness going through the boat which smoothens again above 1900.
Prop is clean and alignment has been checked recently. This is a full displacement trawler with 1:3 tranny reduction and large/low pitch 4 bladed prop. Maybe it’s just a characteristic of this engine?
Thanks for your input! AndrƩ
