Hundreds of high spec luxury motor yachts and boats get damaged every year by something that can only be seen under a microscope.
It’s incredible to think that an engine can be destroyed so easily by something so small and insignificant.
But, a few simple checks, carried out on a regular basis, and the right preventative measures can save you a lot of time and money with regards to your fuel quality.
It all starts with taking a sample of your oil or fuel and running some analysis on it.
There are many varying types of fuel contamination found in diesel and it only takes one type to cause a breakdown to your uninterrupted power system. This risk of your yacht being affected by contaminants can be increased over the winter months.
Water contamination is the big engine killer and nothing is worse than starting up you boat at the start of Spring only to find issues. In Hong Kong Winters, there is a dramatic temperature changes between night and day. This variation can cause water to condense on the tank walls and over the weeks and months cause significant water contamination and bacterial growth in your fuel tanks.
The number one reason to keep your tanks full over the colder months is to minimise exposed tank walls and thus condensation build up. It is a simple measure to reduce the significant costs and stress caused by potentially avoidable issues.
Potential Damage: Engine Failure, Corrosion, Reduced Efficiency, Shattered Fuel Injectors, Damage to Injector Pump, Clogging of Fuel Lines & Filters, Bacteria Growth, Engine Starvation.
