I suggest you start a new thread on this in the Technical Discussion section of this forum, since the title of your thread in this general forum...
Not sure what repairs you're referring to. I didn't provide a number for repairs only. My number was for repairs and improvements. It's a...
I'm further north so can't help with local costs, but in the LA area, bottom cleaning on my 43 Mikelson was around $70/month (probably more now...
After doing a lot of research I think I'll use 7/8" double braid, with snubbers on the bow and stern given the relatively short length (not much...

Check your policy. I was surprised when I read that "insured" basically includes me and anyone operating the boat with my permission. This seems...
Thanks--sent you a PM
Great, thanks
Thanks--Nautica doesn't even exist anymore but apparently there's a family in Florida still making tubes for their RIBs. Wonder if it's the same...
