    Panda Diesel Genset Knock at cold start

    Start up sounds good to me except that "clanking" noise sound like water starvation (need impeller maybe?). As far as the shut down, is not normal. Like someone mentioned already looks like you have a "leak" somewhere.

    Really nice and neat job. I installed a windlass on all my boats, even the skiff i had and i did all the work my self like you did and loved it. By bringing back the windlass you could add maybe another 100 feet of rope.

    330 express 15 or 9.9hp kicker

    I am pretty sure you can get that slow of a speed with only one motor, i had that boat with 250's though and i know is a heavy boat. I will try with my current boat to see how slow i can get.
