I can’t wait until palm trees are growing in CT . Won’t have to worry about burning fuel going south every fall .

Anchoring I visit Block for about 4 weeks every summer on a loop around New England . 34 Tollycraft aft cabin so fairly heavy . I have been anchoring in the Great Salt Pond for the last 30 years never had a problem holding . I use a Rocna 2 sizes larger than recommended on all chain with a...

Check Sailorman Consignment in Ft Lauderdale they have a huge stock of anchors up to mega yacht size . I would imagine lots of items showing up from hurricane salvage .

You can easily do it. Run the boat locally in Florida to get up to speed on all the systems, check every switch,fitting,connections,both fluid and electric study the mechanicals belts hoses transmissions stuffing boxes. When you start to head north travel in small daily segments 30-80 miles a...

I’ve been using the 15kg on a 29’ performance cruiser for 6 years . 100’ 1/4” chain 200’ 3 strand twist on a Lewmar profish 700 windlass . I anchor out most of the summer in New England no matter how hard it blows you always feel secure . You have much more windage on the Camano I wouldn’t feel...

Locate IKE Hi I’m interested in taking a look at this boat . I see it is listed with several different brokers I would rather speak to the owner . Perhaps there is someone that knows the owner and can point me in a direction . Thanks Jim

Can't repeat it enough hire a captain to teach you how to run dock and do basic maintenance checks . That boat is a handful to dock single handed on a good day add 20 knots of wind and it will look like a fire drill in a marina with your neighbors trying to save their boats as you're crashing in...

I agree a towing warp or a sea anchor would most likely keep the boat a little straighter when your surfing . It would be worth a little experimentation as the boat drives very well except in a moderate following sea . I'm also a sailor so I had no problem tacking or finding a different...

I had the same boat . I do my boating in the North East around Nantucket sound to Block Island sound . The water conditions can go from calm to around 6'- 8' in a short amount of time . I had been out a few times when the conditions changed a distance away from any safe harbor . I have never had...

This multi cooler is 5 years old.I take the tube stack out at the end of each season so far so good it just seems like the multi cooler would last longer by keeping the seawater from circulating through it .

Thanks for the replies I do like the idea of adding more anode material. The mani cooler and multi cooler are 2 very different assemblies this is a multi cooler if there are more ideas floating around.

I have a Perkins T6.354M in an 83 34 trawler. Has anyone rerouted the seawater flow so it doesn't go through the multicooler . I would be willing to add a sacrificial heat exchanger rather than corrode the multicooler ? Jim W. Minnion's
