We are a husband and wife owner/operator team. We migrate every year from CT to West Palm counting on 6 days of travel at 23 knots if weather...
Capt J is right. The alarm sounds when connection is lost as the remote automatically times out and shuts down to save battery. You must turn off...
I had problems like this once. My YC is set up in what might be a non traditional way with two Carling panel switches at each helm station. The...
I buy them from New Pig, 100 at a time. Great product and fair price.
We were there too! Beautiful boat with superb fit and finish. The performance specs are impressive, but I wish she had CATs in place on MANs. The...
“Ocean faring” and “bow rider” are mutually exclusive terms. My advice is t buy a small boat appropriate for the primary use and ship it to Mexico.
It’s been years since I hauled and winterized, so I cant even guess on pricing, but depending on location you will find a pretty wide range. As...
For some of us this is intuitive, others are confused by speed over ground (SOG) and speed through the water (STW). Imagine walking the wrong way...
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Last month in Annapolis we were just outside ego alley and had lots of wakes during the day. To keep our guests happy...
My routine is to start up the SeaKeepers (2 of them) when I start my coffee. By the time I've finished my morning routine the gyros are good to...
Um, no. Current affects all boats' speed in the same way. Sorry, it's just physics.
I have the same unit, but 29 kw version. Vernalift muffler. I've been complaining about the exhaust noise since new. It's the loudest generator...
14 passengers on an uninspected vessel that you own and operate? My understanding is that you could carry up to 6, or 12 under a bareboat...
Moisture readings?
Chapman School, or (the right) crewed charter would be my starting points.
Deepest water there last November was found hugging the greens. We draw 5' and waited about 30 minutes past low, just to be sure. We saw 6+ feet...
My C18 manual says to clean and inspect the core at 1000 hours.
My very modern ro water maker has an auto bypass, so that it won't start filling the tanks until the output product is up to preprogrammed specs....
Mostly water with some mild soap. There are common, brand name cleaners and treatments recommended by the manufacturer.
On a previous boat, I had some issues with cracking of Makrolon in areas with curves after about 3-4 years. It's much clearer than Strataglass but...
