"Ex Model?" Bad fairing, good man-trapping skills.
For the size of boat you are talking about, you asked the wrong question. The cost of building under class survey and maintaining class is...
It isn't that at all ... What many interpret as grumpiness is simply a case of not having much time for fools and pretenders. While it is...
Bad luck ... hopefully you filed an insurance claim for the damage. With regard to my post, I didn't say lightning was not a threat to boat...
Thanks J, I was beginning to wonder if boaters in the NE think a hurrican plan is some kind of gummint conspiracy thing rather than something...

"Keeping the old man out of the loop" is hardly my reason for not wishing to start from scratch and teach someone the fundamentals of...

OK, got a few minutes to play so ... Surely you don't think that the microscopic amount of fuel burn represented by a very small increase in...
Hi Superstitious, names get changed every day by people with all kinds of luck but mostly good business sense.
Never have, never will ... I will be a tinkerer and experimenter until I die but neither I nor anyone else will ever get more out of a system than...
If the breaker fails it may do that until all the smoke leaks out.
It is relatively irrelevant ... your magic boat is not driven by a resistive load.
No, but your "surfing regeneration" sure does. Several of us here have sailed on ships that burned more than your little drilling rig and we...
