I never noticed a locking mechanism, not to say there isn't one. Can you physically push it past the jam point while someone holds the switch,...
Here's an excellent example of another impracticality of a commercial vessel as a yacht. This one will travel quite well, but has limitations on...
:confused: :confused: :confused: Uhhhh, yes, it means exactly that. When you spew unburned and patially burned hydrocarbons out the stack, that...
Personally, I don't think many commercial vessels make good candidates for yachts, hydrographics vessels and commercial passenger ships being the...
First question is, is it physically stuck or is the opening mechanism not working? I used to run a 61' Predator and the top physically stuck due...

You're right, it's a vernatherm, it's been 15 years since I was working on airplanes. I've been doing a lot of other things in the mean time. Why...

You should only be in the ICW for a short bit getting from Beaufort NC to the Neusse River then from the sound just South of Coinjock into...
Well, if you don't mind the bill, then MBM has a lot of eye candy available and an easy walk home from brief forays into degeneracy...
