Only to snug, not to crank. Arthritis in the thumbs.
Spoken like someone who's paid to ride with the motors. The rest of us depend on the morning engine room check (done, no leak apparent at that...
How many ways can the wrong shop screw you. With a list of a dozen (mostly piddley) things we asked the mechanics in Erie to do during a 3 week...
Goodbye Cleveland[ATTACH]
Had forgotten. It's outside our range for today, but wouldn't be a bad spot if the boss wants to do a short day tomorrow. I'll check. Viking...
So it is San Francisco You might want to check this thread, and maybe PM the OP. He's got the same idea and area as you, but he's a little...
OK, that sounds like a scary reference. I see where the city took back the marina in 2012 for non-payment of rent. It's a little outside our...
Unless a reputation is impeccable always deal with someone close enough that you can reach out and grab them by the throat if they do a shoddy job.
Only thing I visited tonight was the park in front of the boat and the auto pilot manual. No clocks cleaned. I'm a pussycat.:rolleyes:...
With doing transports all these years I've never messed with a guys settings. Never even read an AP manual. Guess its time. Will check into it...
ROFLMAO.:D. We've been covered (and bitten) by tons of spiders and more than a few skeeter & flies our entire trip since Oswego. They're driving...
Birds??? Sure it wasn't the boss?:o (He was having lunch out there about that time). We have about a 3' following sea. On AP we're swinging...
Hi Caltexflanc. Oh to live in a perfect world.:) I'm jealous (at least of that). Hi Roger. Hope you had a good trip. Thanks again for the...
Did he say whether he has plans to build a spec. boat or is waiting for an order before committing the resources, or is just servicing until the...
When someone else doesn't do their job I do it, and they don't make the money. That simple. Wish I could say this was an odd occurrence, but...
Mostly the 2nd, but a little bit of both. Stupid stuff like overfilling the oil during a change and neglecting little jobs. For instance we...
Underway again This morning we'll be casting off and leaving Erie, Pa. enroute to Cleveland Ohio (hopefully). Erie was a good stop, nice people...
Actually I think he's right not to build a spec boat at this time. With large yachts, it's not that unusual for people to invest in a yard to...
First there's a big difference between having a accident due to bad eyeglasses and chopping someone up with your yacht because you're a drunk....
There (hopefully) comes a time when a man no longer wants his profession. Who knows, I might even enjoy boating again.
