    Lawsuit Rocks the Yacht-Sales World

    There was a time not so long ago when if Mikey wanted to buy a widget from David, they approached each other and spoke with words and arrived at an agreement. They then concluded their transaction and went their separate ways. The End. Crazy idea, but it could work again. Revolution....

    AnyExperience with Mabru A/C?

    Update: 2.5 years in. I no longer recommend Mabru. I was quite happy with the performance of my 12k unit but it has since failed. I brought it in to be checked and was told it had a “massive evaporator failure”. I was told that it leaked because it was not properly supported because of a...

    Extended Anchoring Out

    Just a heads up. A lot of it is in how the question is asked and the ability to read between the lines. Several years ago I was in a similar position and getting similar results. Most marinas can't advertise that they are willing to accept liveaboards but don't actually mind if you are a...

    In Florida we prefer to let Darwinism just play out naturally.

    Florida man arrested after trying to cross Atlantic in hamster wheel

    Look, in defense of the great state of Florida, it's getting pretty crowded. We just happen to have a lot of people that we....... maybe would rather not talk out of stupid things....

    Head does not empty

    Check the vent line from the holding tank. Could be clogged.

    Contact: gaugesaver.com. They're in Florida. They can redo the displays on these. Not sure what their turn around time is.

    What is this?

    It is clearly a cylindricus verticular conundricum. If I have to explain what its for you'll all just feel silly.

    Remove door for roller replacement

    Ohhhh! There may be an adjustment screw in the edge of the door that will allow you to retract the rollers creating extra space to pry the lower edge of the slider up and over the track. It would be recessed within a hole most likely.

    Remove door for roller replacement

    Maybe mine were different, but my lower track was an individual piece.

    Remove door for roller replacement

    You will pull the track forward with the bottom of the door thereby lowering the top edge free of the upper frame.

    Remove door for roller replacement

    Right, the lower track keeps the bottom of the door in place due to its interface with the rollers. I machined slotted blocks to fit inside the door in place of the rollers….and voila! Smooth maintenance free success.

    Remove door for roller replacement

    By the way, I got tired of replacing rollers and fabricated slotted starboard blocks to replace them. Haven't had to replace since then.

    Remove door for roller replacement

    There should be screws going down through lower track. You remove the visible ones, then slide the door to the other side and remove the other screws and the lower track should be able to be pulled toward you creating room to remove door.

    A quandary . . .

    Is it a possibility to return to port in a slip or face dock that might be more favorable for docking till better conditions prevail? Just speaking for myself, the boat can usually handle much more than my docking stills can.

    Too big or too small?

    I would say first thing to do is go to the next in water boat show (do not bring your check book) visit all the boats that interest you, spend a good bit of time on them and visualize your daily routine. Figure out how much storage you need, etc. Figure out what is the smallest boat you can...

    Cutting an 8D battery

    Please don't. Unless you're a jerk, in which case knock yourself out. But seriously, sounds like a really bad idea. I would rather give you a hand than find out what went wrong. I'm in Stuart, if you need help send me a message.

    define; "Overall length"

    I believe overall length is defined as dimension measured from bow pulpit to aftmost point of stern multiplied by .2 percent of vessel appraisal and adjusted by tax bracket of recorded owner. I think.

    Forum opinion on "converted" yachts

    That looks very similar to my 35 trojan hull. It is generally annoying below 8kts. Going through 8 kts it starts to stabilize and I frequently will chug along in that neighborhood and it tracks fine there. I would think that two lighter engines might make it set higher in the water and track...

    3D Printing

    I have sent your requirements to my 3D guy (my son) who has made numerous parts for me. Some that were no longer available and some that didn't exist till I dreamed them up. If it is within his dimensional capabilities I will let you know.
