I don't know if the solenoids were removed on my boat but on my 2000 43' Ocean there were no master disconnects. Part of the reason fro the major...
Same price I paid direct from Ocean in 2015 just before the when out of biz. I wonder if they just wound up with a bunch of inventory along with...
I will humbly defer to your expertise on DD motors. And I will freely admit I have no first hand experience with them. I will also freely admit...
I love this boat as well. My observations are strictly from dock side but I've admired the lines on these boats and the price tag while I harbor...
Excellent post PacBlue. I have always liked the 45C and 48C. The layout is excellent and fit and finish appear to be very good with quality...
Yes, this is correct. My deductible does not apply to liability.
You may well prove to be right depending on what it does to my insurance. Hard to know for sure. We will see.
Just updating as promised... Heard from owner who got an estimate from yard. Told me over the phone that it was $1400 to repair and paint the...
No argument on liability and no, it can't be buffed out. The dimple is probably about 1/16" deep but will need to be ground out and faired but I...
I think this would depend on the yard. As I said, "if this were gel coat" it's a repair that could be done in the water dockside.
Huh.. didn't think I said that. I believe I wrote, and I'll quote "Hoping I don't get soaked by a crazy high repair bill. I can just imagine his...
That would certainly be nice. If it were gelcoat I can't imagine it being more than a few hundred bucks. The paint will be the wild card.
I asked and he said it was. I'm not sure I could tell.
Very good advice. I agree that the benefits of involving the insurance company outweigh the drawbacks. I don't know how Azimuts are painted. I...
Thanks Oldboater, yes I did. At least there's no deductible in this case so I'm covered. But I'm sure it won't be healthy for my rates....
13 years of boating. Lots of scratches on my boats but never touched someone else.... until this past week. Backing into a stern tie with only a...
All good points. What I liked was quality equipment. Stabilizers, Northern Lights Genny's, John Deer Engines, Mastervolt Inverter's, etc. But...
I agree that the hatteras lrc's are an option. Here is a boat I have the hots for and would consider if my kids were out of the house. Custom...
You and I are in the "same boat" so to speak. I think about this question often. Get the book "Voyaging Under Power". I think it does a good...
VICTORY... at least I think so. It's taken me days and I'm covered in bruises and cuts but the hard part is over. I had attached the new hose to...
