If you're going RIB with a tiller outboard, you don't even need a davit if you're willing to remove the engine and fuel tank, they're easy enough...
They have to re-do the entire concrete structure. In area's where salt water/air isn't present it doesn't seem to effect the rebar/concrete...
Why not just find a new(ish)9' whaler or 11'?
This is the point I'm trying to make. Also, even at night there's always a good enough load, when you're on a trip every freezer, refrigerator is...
Cruises are great for this, you wake up each morning and are at a different island and can see a lot of islands in a weeks time and choose whether...
I'll clarify, on most yachts with a large and a small generator. Let's say a 65' yacht such as the Searay L series....Main generator is 20kw and...
unfortunately the website to your links is blocked out so cannot access them.
I have seen it on a bunch of yachts and the small generator NEVER gets used. The only time I'd want one is as a 3rd generator line a Northern...
Blue Ghost- you're being ridiculous. What few news articles are out there always paint THE worst picture. Why don't you go on a cruise and see...
Anchor size is ok. I would definately want 2 generators on an 85' and both generators the same size/type so they share/use the same spare parts....
You know, everyone is making a big deal of this and it's a relatively normal voyage for a vessel this size. 1148' vessel in 30' seas is hardly...
Because what you've read about rarely happens. You would have better odds of getting hit by a drunk driver in your own driveway than any one of...
They do use offshore crew, many from the Phillipines and such, not sure how they screen them. On the seas, they are the police, and the cruises...
An old 13' whaler with just two bench seats (setup for a tiller engine) is light enough that 2 guys can pick it up and carry, at least my friends...
I'll also mention LOWEs sells lots of 120 volt LED stick lights and various lights that I've used with great success in engine rooms and stuff...
And now sold again, to an insurance company. Does sound like it wasn't strapped properly.
They're good switches and I like to use them in shower sumps. However my only gripe is it's a royal pain to test them and the pump, either flood...
The tender is probably also setup so that the big boat could tow it. In the early 2000's the Gallant Lady used to tow it's 58' Searay behind it's...
I tend to clean them generally about every 6-8 weeks and all they need is a very light scrubbing with above mentioned method/cleaners and very...
ANY deep vee boat and fairly deep draft in shallow water at hull speed will do the same. Some more than others but they will all suck bottom and...
