Thanks, Should I move it to the deep end forum?

I am going to be getting underway heading south in my trawler. I have a NYS concealed carry permit, however no other states reciprocate. What is the law for cruising with guns? I want to be able to protect myself but I don't want to break the law. Tough problem in America today.... Thanks!

Send me a PM or email via the CL ad if you'd like more info. Thanks

I have a one month old survey. The boat has new everything. I will deliver anywhere on the east coast. Heading south with her next week. 1981 Albin 43 Trawler

You get what you pay for. My brother had a terrible experience with ACE. BoatUS is hands down the best marine insurance policy written available.

I have owned my Albin 43 trawler for over 3 years now. I have done many upgrades. Glass decks, new tanks, sea cocks, interior, etc. I have also been attempting to paint the entire topside on and off this whole time (roll and tip). By now the whole topside has been primed with interlux 2 part...

Hi All, I am about 7-8 months ahead of myself here but just thinking about initial planning. I live aboard in upstate NY on Lake Ontario and am looking for suggestions for a port to call home for about 5 months next winter to escape the deep freeze. I have been living off the boat in Miami for...

Ok, boats finally hauled. Took off the u shaped pc of ss that the rudder bearings and post go through, the wood is rotten and that is where the box was leaking, do I cut the whole box out and replace? What's the standard practice for this, I will get pictures uploaded ASAP but am currently on an...

My albin 43 trawlers port rudder box is leaking. The packing is not? Just the fiberglass block. Don't understand 100%. Should I haul, then grind the glass away I'm that corner then fill and re glass? I don't want to replace the whole box, just splashed the boat after being out for a month to...

ive only lived aboard for 1 years and have left the dock about 10 times, 4 of wich were to move to a different dock, my reason is I run TowBoatU.S. in rochester so Im out on the water every day and doesnt leave me much time to enjoy the trawler. Hopefully ill do a few trips this year tho.

i know my problem is lack of insulation, but I cant insulate and keep the original interior.

carl, thank you for the kind word and advice, i apperciate it. how warm do you keep the egg harbor? do you live aboard the trawler now? still own both boats? I hope you arnt heating both of them!!! the major flaw with my heating system is that the most heating elements are in my salon, as heat...

I would move south in a heartbeat. Im 22 years old and have a long Rochester life ahead of me (very sadly). we have a tool & die company here that my brother and I will take over. If it wasnt for that I would have moved south a year ago. old stone, you lived aboard the egg harbor? where in...

My electric is metered at the dock. I pay $0.18 per KWH. I would need 3 space heaters running 24/7 (1500 watt) which comes out to $600 per month. The boiler is costing me $400 in fuel. I turn the heat down to 55 when I go to work. Then anywhere from 60 to 65 when I'm onboard usually a small...

I have a diesel boiler. I'm trying to cut cost as it's costing Me 100$ per week right now with fuel prices @ $3.50 per gal. I need a source of heat that I can use dockside through the winter and when power goes out. I think Wood is my best option.

liveaboard...........

woodsong, thank you.. how accurate are they?? do you use a backup chartplotter or just paper charts along with this software?

OpenCPN seems cool. Downloading it now... How does it track where you are? Antena needed?

I have a nice boiler set up in my boat. With fuel prices rising I'm looking for an alternative source of heat, other than electric. Ive looked at the sardine wood stoves as well as the tiny tot charcoal stoves and am wondering if anyone has any experience with ANY solid fuel stove on board a...

whats an "affordable" software I could hookup and use on my PC? thank you
