Not totally true. They also had issues on the 63' with stringers (engine beds) seperate from the hull on several and they were cored. There...
10 years in my experience has been on white color, and smaller fiberglass boats. 50-100'. Dark colors and aluminum or even steel is a different...
Rolloff is Ammonia based like Orpine boat soap, not an acid like a degreaser, but it is a little on the harsh side nonetheless. I've gotten away...
Yeah, if they break you cannot use your electronics unless you have a way to get to the backside of the console and unbolt it, then you need a way...
SevenStar does own their ships as well as Dockwise. Sevenstar generally carries other cargo in the hold of their ships which covers the ships...
With the guys working out of LMC, the paint choice (brand/type) was theirs. As in traditional Awlgrip.....I mean Awlgrip, not Awlcraft 2000 or...
You can cleaner wax a transom in an hour or less usually......but, I am testing that exhaust shield polymer stuff on one boat to see how it works out.
I usually wash the transom with only boat soap, if that doesn't work then I use some Rolloff, but nothing harsher. If it won't come off, I'll...
I've seen the guy at Cable Marine turn out some really nice paintjobs. They have 3 or 4 total repaints going on now. I had really bad luck with...

Well, the newer you go the better the power packages and many then have Cats instead of Man's (pre-common rail) etc. etc..... Construction is good...
The Meguiars in the blue bottles is junk, all of the waxes and such are watered down now and don't last a month or two. The Flagship Meguiars is...
Hatteras 54' SF is a much better riding boat than the 50' SF. Id go with that or a 61' Viking and skip a late model Bertram entirely. The 61'...
15 people on a 25' boat? That is way overloaded and a tragic thing to see happen.
With Polyballs, both Taylor and Polyform, you cannot and that plastic plug sent as a projectile with enough force behind it could be deadly.
BTW, the ones that were replaced, the screens ended up cracking on the new ones less than 2 years later......I don't know if it's caused by too...
I've seen a lot of those crack, so it's a pretty common thing. I've never had them repaired. I replaced a set a long time ago and cannot...
