Well, first off you will need a Restricted Radio Operators Permit to use the radio when out of the country. You also need a radio station license for the boat to operate your radio out of the country, when you apply for this you automatically get an FCC MMSI number. Neither one of these is...

They twist off. They get stuck to the ceiling material so it is sometimes hard to get them to turn. Try trusting counterclockwise, if that does not work try clockwise. The bezels have 3 or 4 small protrusion that goes into a slot. You can see them on the outside if you look closely. They look...

We have a metal collapsible crate we use. Made a top for it out of teak and use it as a side table also

Hey Kevin, We have a 4588 and just had ours recovered with new foam in the cushions. We recovered because we did not want to lose all the storage under the settee. As you know, even though the 4588’s and 4788’s have a great layout, they still lack storage compared to some other boat models. As...

If you have a U-Line ice maker, NovaKool make a 12v / 120v freezer that fits in the U-Line space perfectly. We did this on our boat and got a desktop Frigidaire Ice maker to replace the U-Line.

4588 are great boats. We purchased ours 3 years ago and love it. Very well built and a very well thought out design. We opted for the 4588 over the 4788 for 3 reasons. 1, Price. 2,Third stateroom office layout instead of the little added storage. 3, will fit in a 50 foot slip. You will not...

I would say the warm then cold then warm then cold is from your water pump cycling. When it cycles on you get a momentary increase in cold water then it gets warm, repeaters every time the pump cycles on and off. Installing an accumulator tank on you water system will eliminate this problem.

We love our compactor. When we first bought the boat we wanted to take it out to increase storage space. But we procrastinated, and now 3 years later are glad we did not take it out. We do not buy compactor bags, we keep one compactor bag in the unit and put Glad Force Flex bags inside it. Keep...

Static Wicks on planes are there to discharge Static Electricity which builds up asa result of friction from flying through clouds, rain, snow, dust etc.. The static affects the planes radios ability to communicate with others. Planes do get struck by lightning, the Static Wicks do nothing to...

My problem with high dollar ratcheting crimpers is they seem to only do a good job when joining same gauge wires. However, as is usually the case, you buy a component and it has say 18 gauge wire, and the power supply for that device on the boat is say 14 gauge. This presents a problem for the...

I’m a pilot and end up in Florida regularly. Don’t worry too much, just take precautions, wear a mask and use hand sanitizer. As far as the boats, when we were looking for our boat, we looked at boats in Florida, most of them were in good shape. Most of them had come from somewhere else soI...

I chased a vacuum leak for a year, turned out I had a small crack in the funnel.

Well, it is hard to single out 1 or 2 things that are important, so really for us all these things are necessary for us. 1. Well Maintained Marina 2. Live Aboards allowed 3. Covered slip 4. City/Municipal water 5. 2-50 amp 125 at pedestal 6. Pump Out 7. WiFi 8. Clean shower facilities...
