:confused: Exactly what is it he's supposed to be moderating? So far I don't see anything posted that is against the terms of use. We now have...
Why did the transom come off? Your scenario has some problems, and that is not the only one. Tagging that bouy should not have resulted in what we...
Maybe maybe not. Typically all that is done is "sounding" the boat, tapping on it with a nylon tipped hammer and listening for the tell tale...
Thank you, well done, now we have information. My bet, this is a two fold problem, the bouy shown was not involved. Where that boat came apart...
A quick reality check, for a 200GT vessel, you will need full time crew just to maintain the vessel. Might as well hire a captain/stew team....

Yeah, and his wife still bakes...
The French are still a bit touchy about that... They were in the running for the official language, but it was decided to go with English. Up...
You may want to check case law on that.
I have several clients in that position and they all just register it in their names, it's cheaper that way and they get some little tax deduction...
There is only one "fault" I have found here and that is that the captain left the dock with an uninsured vessel. As to a manufacturers defect, I'm...
