    Hey Martha. Where on the Chesapeake are you going to keep your boat. I'm headed up to Seaford DE this weekend to visit my boat. I sold it to a great guy from NC and we're going for a short cruise this next week on the upper bay. Larry -- Edited by LarryW on Tuesday 27th of March 2012 04:57:59 AM

    Pics of the sunk Florida Bay Coaster

    I think I read somewhere about something loose in the engine room falling and knocking a through hull off. It probably doesn't take much water below deck to cause it to be unstable. LarryW

    Earthquake

    O yeah just a side note. We rounded the turn to pass in front of the ship yards in Newport News and started seeing where it looked like some kind of spill. Not oil but kind of a dark look to the water like you see in the dismal swamp canal only darker. About 30 minutes later 10 or 12 military...

    Hello, new guy with a blasting question.

    There was an article in PM magazine about a Grand banks Alskan. Guy said in the article that the key was to clean and paint everthing in the interior to seal it and prevent the smoke smell. His had a lot of rebuilding of main cabin and it turned out nice. Larryw
