I'm on Win 7 and IE and have never had a problem.

Mine's with Markel via Al Golden at IMIS. I gave up named storm coverage which saved me around $900/year, because I'm in a well protected marina with floating piers. No damage at all during Ike. IMIS can give you good quotes and information from various companies, since they are independent...

I do 12 oz. curls.

Recently my water comes out foamy and smelling a bit like peppermint. The water pressure at the hose bib is 65 psi and my regulator drops it to 45 psi. This seemed to start when I put in a new water hose. It's the white potable water hose from West Marine. They recently increased the water...

Most of the locks you will encounter are just salt water barriers. If you hear a lockmaster say "hold her in the middle" you don't have to tie up, just hover and they will close the gate behind you and open the one in front of you. Locking in or out of the Mississippi is a serious lift/drop though.

Rain and wind. Cold fronts come through and you do NOT want to be out in that. Just watch the weather and don't get in a hurry and you'll be fine.

What about copper tubing? That's what I used for mine.

American Diesel - (804) 435-3107. They have everything you need at reasonable prices, including a lot of expert free advice! The Ford Lehman was originally a tractor engine, so if you're in the super budget mode, you can check out a tractor place if you have one near you.

You know, the sad thing is that dammed near every web site I go to, including this one has an ad for Emergency Response Team Software which I am truly interested in, and although I've clicked on it twice and entered my info, I've never heard back from them. What a waste on both ends.

Check out this Irish commentators comments about a sailboat race during the olympics. One of the funniest things I've seen in a long time. http://www.thatvideosite.com/v/5852

I like Boatlife polysulfide for mounting stuff. Been around and used successfully since WWII. I still haven't found anything white that stands up well to UV. That 4000 UV turned to powder after a couple of years here on the Gulf Coast.

Gas: $4.65 Diesel: $4.25

All towboat traffic switches to 16 from 13 west of Galveston in the ICW. Go ahead and argue that it's illegal, improper, etc. all you want, but that's how it's done, and the USCG hears it every day and participates as well.

Yikes! Did a Russian sub patrol the Gulf of Mexico unbeknownst to US military? - National Homeland Security | Examiner.com

GROCO MARINE PRODUCTS Try the Groco APHS series. Removable screens with a door that opens for cleaning.

Signature Finish and Honey Teak Products - Home I've been using Signature Finish's Honey Teak for about 18 years and love it! It won the highest mark back when Powerboat Reports was still in business, but I haven't seen their sister publication, Sailboat Reports since. It's a catalyzed...

I believe the yacht ensign is acceptable in lieu of the US flag.

I fly mine on my starboard spreader. I think I remember you're never supposed to fly two flags at the same position, although I've done it with my cocktail and beer flags. ;-)

Can't go wrong with a Lehman, unless you're Marin. :-)

Sno-Bowl toilet bowl cleaner works well too.

You can buy replacement felt from the same sources. The metal will have to be absolutely clean for it to stick though.

Sure, just look for sliding window channel, single or double. Hi-Tech Glazing Supplies - Serving the Industry Since 1979 C.R. Laurence Co., Inc. or your local glass shop.

They might have asked without pointing the gun at you... geez.

Check breakers / fuses? There might be one you don't know about.
