hi let me introduce myself I am from the island of Trinidad in the southern Caribbean and I am studying naval architecture at the university of Newcastle in England. My dad has 2 boats that I use and maintain and we have made a few trips through the Grenadines. They are a 1989 Ocean 38ss and a 25ft formula 3 centre console built in Trinidad. I have been looking at this forum for a quite a while and i think most the information has been quite useful. Gmax
