    Wanted: EZ Docker Hook

    The hook was invented in Seattle. You could buy them at the boat show for about $55. As the inventor started to get on with life, the company was sold to an individual in Portland. He charged $175, then went out of business a few years ago. Good luck. I was wanting to get an extra one too.

    Dedicated autopilot control or operate with MFD?

    I have Raymarine MFDs and AP. I have 2 MFDs and the dedicated AP remote control, I can also have carry around the boat. My advice: Regardless which brand you have, keep it all in the family. Ray marine/Raymarine, Garmin/Garmin. This way it is easier to troubleshoot.

    Yep gotta have the customs sticker. We also found it easy to use the ROAM app, unless they do a system update and then only Apple stuff was the only app. This happened last year while approaching Port of Friday Harbor.
