    TMCA Spring Fling May 17th - 19th

    TMCA is a boating club in the Galveston Bay area. This is just one of their get-togethers and is a fun weekend! We went last year when they had it at Freeport and had a great time. Live music, great food, fun people. They had some vendor tables, and a few classes. Well worth the trip. We'll be...

    Soon to be a liveaboard - advice?

    Track-It TV mount wearing out?

    I've had one of these for maybe 10 years, since it was Follow-Me TV. It's been very windy this week, and I was having to re-adjust the aim every day.

    Coming to Puget Sound? Illegal to dump waste cleaner than shoreside teated?

    To add a little more confusion to the marine water pollution arguments, the journal SCIENCE (29 Mar. 2002) reported on a study which tracked the biological sources of fecal bacterial in Virginia watersheds.

    POWER Question!!!

    You are way too inexperienced to own a boat like that. Get something smaller until you learn little things like shore power, 12V, gas vs. diesel, maintenance, etc. Read Chapman's. Take a USPS or USCG aux course.

    suface rust
