I agree with the other comments - don't do it. If you repower, then these days you don't have much choice. I repowered in 2008 and the Volvo...
From the helm seat, I could never see the back of the boat anyway, so this structure didn't really change anything. To see the back corners of...
... and the finished product
A few years ago replaced a canvas cockpit cover with a permanent one. In Western Australia we also need to hide from the sun a lot, so a canvas...
I installed a VDO instrument in 2008 and has worked perfectly. The hardest part of the installation is figuring out how/where to mount the...
I suspect that the 4 diesels are all gensets. I was recently on a small cruise ship (Le Boreal - similar in size to Eclipse), which used...
It's Louisburg, on Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia. Stopped there on a cruise last September. Worth a visit if you're in the neighbourhood.

Bali in September I came across these two in Bali on 12 September. The one behind is the Michaela Rose, but can anyone identify the one in...
We have a Dahon Vitesse for me and a Dahon Ciao for the admiral. For what we need they're both great. Obviously won't compete with Mega $$...
This one has got me dreaming... Thanks for the pics vivariva.
Here she is, still cruising around Fremantle and the Swan River. Can't seem to find any info on her.
While out twilight sailing last night on the Swan river, came across a big surprise - a megayacht way upstream, and one I hadn't seen before....
AMG: The rendering in your post reminded me of something. Many years ago, Tom Fexas (bless his soul) used to pen a monthly article in a...
Most home style carpets have a jute (or similar backing) that tends to rot if it gets wet. However, you can get home style carpets that use a...
I have a 1984 vintage Riviera 34 and have had it since 1995. However, the only thing that is 1984 vintage is the hull and moulded bits....
