2011 R29 electric stove/oven

[DaveandEileen]

Is there a way to have the oven on with other appliances? Our oven does run on almost 30 amps.
It seems we have to have everything off to us the oven.
Any suggestions?

I was told the same thing by previous owner. - 30 amps. Ask Ranger.
Do you have the Yanmar 6BY-260 hp engine? Have you owned awhile? Have you been able to find parts and service for it easily? Hardalee

Yanmar engine service & parts.
Our boat is a 2011 Ranger 29 Tug classic with 450 hours on it, we just got it in January. I have had it serviced and had no real problems but all that was needed was filters, belts and hoses.
I have heard finding parts could be difficult since the 6BY2 260 (a BMW motor) is no longer being used. I have also heard that if it is properly serviced on a regular basis you should get 10,000 hours out of it.
My plan was to use it a few years and if we enjoy cruising around to upgrade into something else with a little more room.
If you go to the Yanmar web site you can find some authorized dealers and some are very helpful on the phone.
If you need help finding people to talk with let me know and I'll try to help.
Regards,
Dave
