    What Would You Have Done?

    When I had a sailboat with cable controls, I was docking moving slowly forward towards another boat. Getting ready to backdown towards my slip I began to shift into neutral and the shift lever came right off in my hand. I hit the boat in front of me. Anything can happen when least expected.

    Suggestions needed for removal

    What are you using in your AC strainer

    I've been using Silk Guard with every strainer cleaning for 4 years. My slip neighbor who turned me on to it has been using it regularly for 15 years and has never needed to Barnacle Buster his A/C system. And his pumps have never needed replacement. He has a 52' Maritimo. My chiller system...

    Not Another USCG Documentation Thread!

    I just renewed online and had no difficulty. Multi-year renewal was available online as well. I already had a pay.gov account so maybe that's why. You may need to setup a pay.gov account first.
