Check the connections on the shore cables or better yet, use two different one to see if you still get the problem. Neighboring boat had the same...
That's not true. When brass oxidizes, it creates a patina, but not the type of corrosion and expansion oxidation you get with iron or steel. When...
Marelon is fine. Brass is fine. I never said bronze. I would never use PVC. It gets brittle when in long term contact with saltwater. You may not...
I just love the way that someone brings up this one (read: 1) review from 15 years ago when someone new asks about a Carver! How about getting a...
If you're unsure if the thru-hulls are original to the boat, simply use a micrometer against the bottom portion of threads and then again at the...

Just to provide my .02... In the summer, we routinely spend the night aboard and A/C is a must. Even with an open hatch and a fan, it doesn't...
Why can't you use the existing crane to put the RIB on the platform? What is the weight difference from the SeaDoo to the RIB? The Seadoo would...
I, too, had been watching that ship come together over the past few years. Amazing, when you think of the river at that point. I saw it at St....
