    Nope 3313 doesn't show it either.

    Murray, thanks for saving me from myself. I typed and deleted a reply that, while not meant to be sarcastic, would probably have been taken as such.

    Chart inaccuracy

    First, Keith, I don't question you or your navigational skills. At all! I'm just really baffled by this one. So many places on the coast I could understand but, how does that sucker, if accurately depicted by Keith, get a pass all these years? Surely your readings can't be out by +/- 100...

    An element of optics then, I guess.

    This thread and it's traction surprises me. In an ok way. When I posted, I thought it would get two replies both ending with the word "dummy."

    Boat handling in following seas

    Looking at the back end of the GFC Sea Ray, I am reminded of an often forgotten element. Trim tabs. They can be your friend or enemy in following seas. No two situations are alike so be aware of tab position and play with them if needed.

    Jet Stream Crosses Equator

    Well, I tell ya, if that guy was teaching me, I would not stay awake. Now, not to make any connection, but this is closer to home for a lot of us. Kelp is destroyed by over population of urchins caused by the disappearance star fish. So, what is knocking off the star fish...

    And then the experts who "proved" it was all nonsense, are themselves proven wrong next decade. How many times have they changed the medicinal facts on coffee, eggs and snake oil? Brexit? Just a tempest in a tea pot. Take it to the bank.

    You read my mind and that isn't always easy as the old grey matter is covered in green stuff.

    Wet exhaust lift

    That is what got me thinking. Small hose into a large canister with a larger hose out and up. I'm sure though, if I go camp out in sunchasers ER, he will easily show me how 3 stick men can be chased up a hill by one.

    Problem is, people are handed their butts every day based on little, sketchy, erroneous or zero facts. Then there is the hypocrite in us all, when we go off on someone for doing the same thing we do. But somehow it's different when we do it, isn't it? How about THAT, Mr. Fung!

    The long way home

    I see she is just leaving the English Channel, this is going to be fun. Do you know the routing, Bill?

    Now that sounds like a plan, I'll remember to bring my own pool cue this time.

    Wet exhaust lift

    I guess I'm hung up on volume. My head tells me if the hose was disconnected from the exhaust elbow, ahead of the muffler, it would fill a bucket pretty quick. So I visualize that water going into the lift muffler and wonder how it can climb that hill. Or is it mostly vapour?

    Wet exhaust lift

    What am I missing? These pictures are a Perkins' in a 49 De Fever, stand up ER. The mufflers must be at least 4 feet below the waterline. I can't grasp how the water in the exhaust can travel up that distance and out. Or, how the water does not back into the exhaust. Tom?

    Hey! It's our day and we should be able to whoop it up. Political or not.

    What's this thing

    Yeah, 'cause we still don't know for sure. Need to look with my own eyes, I guess. Let's see if the broker gets back to me... Well, Cormac, most of the boys think you are mistaken. Can we get Andy to weigh in on this one? I hate to spend $200 on travel just to look for myself. Don't take...

    What's this thing

    Now that's funny. Here is the email exchange I had with the broker. Me: Good morning. What is this picture in listing 4340 (53 CC)? Davit pump? Steering pump? AP? Something else? He: I think the picture is a davit pump Cormac O’Kiely Yachtbroker Thunderbird Yacht sales Me: Thanks...
