I have to disagree with you. The post is a fast boat. Use it. Ideally, you want to ride the back/top of the wave. If you let the wave catch...
I have all the east coast editions and I just checked with the boss to make sure he has the Great Lakes edition. I consider them indispensible,...
That video scared the devil out of me until I looked at the 2nd video that comes up. The boat does sit on the bottom of the lock, but it's held...
I rarely drag anchor because, like you, I always put out lots of scope, check my hold and check it often. But it has happened a couple of times...
Exactly, it has to be laid so that it doesn't ride the wave, but instead stays in place at the chine. OK for a swim noodle, but not how the CG...
If it's the closed type (about 4"+ thick) it could be cored or hollow (very unlikely it's solid). You'll want to bolt all the way through anyway...

Thanks to the glaciers of the last ice age, and the efforts of man, they are. As much as I enjoyed the warm waters down south, the waterways up...
The problem with laying anything in the water (besides looking pretty weird) is that it will ride the waves, not flatten them much, unless it's...
Very cool. I expect to be going through there for the first time in a few months. So looking forward to it, and plan to get in touch when we...
I used to run a 51 Bert, and believe it was a 2001 or 2002. Fuel burn at cruise (26 kts.) was about 85gph. Did Not Like the boat. 1) We had a...
Leno is very much a West Coaster. Can't get much more than LA. Letterman hails from the Ed Sullivan theater in NY.;)
PacBlue, Don't get in an uproar. I was being sarcastic. NY sense of humor. Something seldom appreciated on the west coast. Just ask Leno and...
Sorry, but this could only come from California. As boaters we're supposed to enjoy these sounds (although halyards clanging still drive me crazy...
The reason manufacturers are still offering shaft drives is cost and reliability. They cost far less and require far less maintenance. Repairs...
Google "Anchor Rollers" and you'll find a wide variety starting at about $25 and going as expensive as you'd like.
Standard with vacuflush heads. In fact I'm not even sure they can operate without them. BTW, if you go past full those filters are shot....
If you have a Vacu-flush head you should have a filter in the vent line. It's cylindical, about 2" in dia and a foot or so long, made by SeaLand....
Check inside cabinetry or closets inside of and near the vent. Look for a removable panel.
