I have had to replace many Attwood floatswitches because they tend to stop when lifted to their highest point. Anyone here has the same...

Thanks Capt J
Thanks for your input. I still wonder why there is so little damage to the boat but there are these 2 cracks on each side of the bulkhead that...
Yesterday I was at a full keel, sloop rigged, very well build 51' yacht that had run aground recently. The boat had hit an underwater rock full on...
What about the hoses? Are they of the odor-safe type or worn down cheaper sanitation hoses. You might be surprised how much smell they can let...
Thanks Marmot. I will try to find these IACS docs. If you can recommend any books about this subject please let me know too. I do need to learn...

If Michael Jackson was into boating that would have been his yacht I reckon. Plain pathetic.

A decent sealer like Starbright will do the same. Plus it is a whole lot easier to slap on another coat of sealer than to touch up the varnish....
I wish we had brass monkeys. There's one nicking my mango's every morning and trying to steal my partners bra's from the laundryrack on the...
Why would you use a varnish and not an teak oil or sealer for a deck? Varnish gets slippery when wet and oil doesn't. In the sunny but humid...
