I don't disagree, although you're perhaps pushing the age consideration beyond the posted concept? The Matthews, like my Burger, has the full...
The principles of hydraulics sort of stumps me on this. Both dockside bibs are fed from the same delivery feed, and the transition from the Y to...
Also, a lot of single-level living, dropping downstairs to go to bed. One of my driving influences in shifting from my sportfish to the motor...
Agreed. This quickly became one of my favorite threads.
If you do this, recommend using Bostik 70-08A for new acrylic installation. You need it to bond, hold, and be reliable.
I replaced a hatch and added a snap-in solar screen in lieu of seeking an alternative to the tint. Still get nat light, lose UV and gain privacy.
Keep in mind that you don't need to do the sea trial and haul at the same time with the surveyor. You can do both, with a sea trial early under...
I think it starts with the owner. If the owner is hands-on, present, and leading the project, it can happen pretty much anywhere that the owner...
I'd add that to determine the optimum outcome, run the formula to calculate the target RPM, but start logging the sea trial perhaps 200 RPM below...
I've sort of taken this approach at every turn, every new adventure, restoring an old--one-but-good-one. Kudos to the wallet choosing to take...

I pretty much use a Dewalt hand held blower for everything, differing nozzles. Rafts, fenders, whatever...
Fun part, the broker now has the obligation to share the performance question relative to known potential defects given the failure of a contract...
Motor mounts rarely fail other than with age, but if you have some age on them or heavy use, and if you're heading towards an alignment check and...
Absolutely. I light up like a christmas tree at night, but even that wouldn't have saved me from this rascal.
Yes. This. Soda blast, fair, long board, high build, paint. Put the work into the hands of someone you can trust to take the proper steps or...
