A lot of times there is no way to get both boats close enough to jump from boat to boat without banging both boats together. You're not going to...
Dennis, you sit there and say they will only last if you run them at cruise and this and that. 90% of the yachts out there cannot run them at...
Yes, the size of the anchor will be limited by the windless.........as will the chain size, as for that I live G IV hi-test. I like 200' of...
Parts are available, but you're not going to find them travelling. You have to keep a lot of spares on-board. As for the West Marine having...
