Where that 81' tug boat is sitting is about 40 miles from Key West....it's hardly a problem to just leave it there on the reef as a...
The thing is, if you have a storm the magnitude of Sandy. It really didn't matter where you moved your boat, whether you put it on land or...
It didn't come from Cabo with Shaft zincs.
I managed 12 yachts during our Category 4 storm, Wilma when it hit south of Fort Lauderdale. Only 1 sustained ANY damage over $500. The key is...
I haven't run a Cabo for Cabo in over a year nor a Hatteras for Hatteras. Not to say that I won't in the future. I have never heard of one that...
I'd recommend a 47 or 48' Cabo above and well beyond all else. My second choice would be a Viking, I believe they built a 48' FB during that time...
This is true, BUT most owners aren't looking to go across the Atlantic. Most are doing the Bahamas, Carribean, and NE. Also they're not...
I have heard this and it is true, some shaft zincs do have the copper pellet in them..... Order Zimar zincs.....They're sold in Fort Lauderdale...

In a given world roughly 569 RPM's that the propellor itself would have to turn. take 5(NM) x6076 (feet in a NM)= 30380 (feet per hour) x 12...
Betsy can keep up, I think she cruises a touch over 30 knots. However, I don't think it's worth the trouble. You fuel savings on 4 pods versus 2...
Guys, he's talking about a 10' boat. Aluminum would be easy to shape and weld. Otherwise I'd do a cold molded hull....also relatively easy to...
A titanium prop!...... I would suggest Bronze. Aluminum has a nasty habit of welding itself to SS.
Well, when you come on a forum and ask such a broad question that nobody can answer, what kind of response do you expect. If you at least give...
No, it was ordered from the factory that way. The owner lived in Brielle, NJ. So he probably visited the factory and such. It was a one...
Price moves everything!
Sure, bring sunscreen. Without telling us even what type of boat it is, suggestions would be useless. Follow the surveyor around the entire time...
