Boat is sold - can't find a way to delete this thread. Thanks for looking

Thank you Pgitug It has bee a pleasure owning this boat - she is a class act. I hope she can find a new owner who will get the same enjoyment.

Greetings all. I am selling my 2003 Kadey Krogen 39. Located on the Chesapeake bay. The boat is in excellent turnkey condition, and is currently "For Sale by Owner". She is priced WITHOUT the typical broker fee markup that is so common, and could therefore be a great deal for someone who is...

Fortunately I have a flat plate strainer - I would probably replace a scoop with a flat plate irrespective of the direction the scoop was facing. I wonder about the efficiency of the water pump pulling in raw water with a rear facing scoop.

Caution One note of caution: You should first check what style of strainer is installed on the genset raw water intake. Most should be a flat plate style strainer, but I have heard of a scoop type also being installed. If you have a scoop type strainer which faces forward, the forward velocity...

Avoid at all costs In case anyone else is looking for Marina's near DC - I have just one piece of advice: Avoid National Harbor at all costs. I have lived there for over three years - and finally I just have to move. The marina management is incompetent and subject to very bad decisions made...

Firstly, OFB - great job!!! However, I must admit to being a bit baffled. In the marina's where I learned about boat ownership etc., it was kind of a standing courtesy that whenever someone arrived, at least one or two folk would stop what they were doing and go to the arriving boat's dock to...

I recently purchased a trawler in Norfolk, Va - and I posted a request for information on the local yards on this forum. I was fortunate enough to get some helpful replies, particularly one PM from Don - "Moonstruck", who passed on the e-mail address for a friend of his in the area with local...

Carey - yes, that's the $30 site I mentioned in my post. I think it's more of a cruising club than online forum for owners and those interested in becoming KK owners.

Rick Thanks for expanding on your experiences. I am NOT looking for a lowball quote - I'm looking for a good, professional yard I can trust to do important (some safety related) installations without me looking over their shoulder, as I will likely have to be traveling overseas at the time of...

HI everyone I'm hoping to soon become a Krogenite, but I am having a hard time finding a good source of Krogen information online. I know there must be stuff out there, but it seems there is very little activity on any of the places I've found. I'm not ready to plunk down $30 for Krogen...

I've posted on other forums, got a strong "never again", but that was an experience a few years ago. Other than hull / topside work, how would you rate their mechanical and electrical/electronics abilities. I believe I will have some work that needs to be done on what I would term critical...

Thanks for the input - unfortunately as sometimes happens I'm getting conflicting responses. The main reason I am looking at OMC is the location, less than a mile from the boat's current location and they will do the haul for the survey. I will keep Atlantic Yachts in mind as well. Any more...

The deal is still in the works, survey begining of Feb - then hopefully the move to the dark side will be complete. Then the fun begins. The things I mentioned in my post are things I know will need to be done after purchase. There'll be many more questions I'm sure.

Hi all I'm trying to determine the quality of the yard in Norfolk called Ocean Marine Center. I may need to have some work done (nothing specific yet) including electrical & head systems as well as hull compunding and buffing. Does anyone have any experiences with this yard - good or bad?? All...
