It was reported on another forum that the Boynton inlet operator saw surfers ahead of him, and he was concerned he would hit a surfer if he...
Yes, it was Alacrity. I am located on the West Coast for the winter, but I’d be happy to meet you at some point. No, I did not install a...
I think I might have been a former owner of your boat. There is so much stuff running AC power on that boat, that losing the generator is a real...
I agree with others that the Sea Ray XLS is not a great boat for Ft Lauderdale, for the reasons others have posted. I had a similar family...
My understanding is as follows: A "use tax" would be payable in FL if: 1. You brought the boat to FL within 180 days of purchase, AND 2. You did...
Well .....for the first time ever ..... I'm going to disagree with Bill106. I'll add some context: 1. I'm the current (and 2nd) owner of the...
On the 68 I used to own, it worked as follows: 1. In automatic mode, the fan speed modulates based upon the air pressure in the engine room. As...
I don't think this needs to be as complex as some would suggest. Here are some ideas: 1. Create a small daily charter rate for the boat itself....
Probably under $500, unless I loved something. 2010 or newer, in all likelihood. Good points on the deck issues.
No. I'd consider other drives, but I'm only considering boats that are a few years old, and Formula only builds the newer 45's with pods.
I'm only looking at the IPS boats. Formula has only had one engine/drive option for 8-9 years, which leads me to believe "they" think it works...
I've been on the forum for a few years, and have owned Azimut and Lazzara yachts. Recently, we sold the Lazzara in favor of a home in FL. Long...
I think you have it wrong with Lazzara. I think the build quality of my 2005 68 was better than most of the other brands we looked at, and we...
We've enjoyed it a lot, but it's on the market, as we've bought a Florida home, and it's not getting as much use as it did originally. Things I...
Lazzara 68
Zud, I've owned an Azimut, and I enjoyed the boat, but there were some quirky issues with the boat. Search my posts, and you'll get a flavor....
I think it varies. I moved from 37' to 55', and was not interested in any sort of mentor/training. I cited lifelong boating experience, a pilots...
I haven't gotten anything, so hopefully that rules out Active Captain.
Got it. I like guppies. [IMG]
Ok. I think I own a guppy. But honestly, I don't get the joke! I'm thick skinned, so let me have it .... What's a guppy?
