False advertising. Heh... just pulling your chain, OB! I don't get a chance to do that to folks often on places like this. :) -Chris
Heh... young whipper snapper! I cracked up on your note about having cell phones since you were 18. "Older" boater, huh? :) -Chris
FWIW, many of our members found that even though they had immediately attributed odors to black water systems, the real source more often turned...
I think we posted a thread in our owners forum that ended up identifying about 28-30 different potential sources of odor. Often little things...
I've found leaving the vents open on portable tanks exacerbates any issues you might have with ethanol gas if you're forced to use that. -Chris
I purposely didn't mention brands earlier, but it happens out two fridges are NovaKool models, one an R75MT and the other an R2600. As I...
There's another way to solve that with an AC/DC fridge. We have both DC and AC breakers for each fridge. We usually leave the DC breakers off...
Yes, of course. I was speaking to OP's "what is the difference..." question. FWIW, we leave battery switches on (even though bilge pumps are...
FWIW, our 12V/110V fridges always runs on 12V. When both 12V and 110V are present, the fridges automatically choose 110V. But then when being...
Yep, didn't mean to imply this would replace first-hand info, just mentioned it in case you hadn't reviewed it. In other words, FWIW. The newest...

Boatels (rack storage, even dry rack storage) up the gazoo around here. Call ahead, the boat is in the water when you get there. Return, they...
Me too. The few times I've noticed the front page -- usually just after logging out from the forum -- I only see headlines about boats so far out...
By "inside" you mean NOT up the Delaware Bay, across the canal, and then down the Chesapeake? IOW, some combination of Chincoteague Bay, etc.?...
I'd guess it'd be easier/faster and maybe less expensive to buy an off-the-shelf Tiara express, compared to converting an existing flying bridge...
I use an older "Wave Magnum" version of this http://www.radiolabs.com/products/wireless/Wave-Plus-high-power-usb-wifi-n-adapter.php also from...
What would be the purpose of such a conversion? FWIW, our boat brand was in the process (7-8 years ago) of developing some models that shared the...
Seems to be kind of an odd spec. Would have thought test data would have included a standard cruise RPM of closer to 80% of WOT (~2450), 90% of...
The angles are generally better for positioning the stern and maintaining that position within a 4-way slip when lines are crossed; same reason a...
We have stairs to the flying bridge, no ladder. That would be a deal breaker for us, now. We have a forward window, ditto deal breaker if...
