If it ain't broken, don't fix it! If the danforth is working for you, stick with it... I don't like deltas in soft mud but they can dig in hard...
Looks like he s asking about a nordhavn, so it s likely to be still doable with CC or cash. Not familiar with Mexico but in the Bahamas I often...
Or use a "lunch hook"... That is one dumb concept! I like to eat my lunch while it s hot and drink my drink before it s Warm or the ice has...
I m not familiar with the conditions on the left coast, but I don't find the delta to hold well in soft mud. It s fine in sand and hard mud and...
I know bill and I disagree on this, but I sleep very well on a big Bruce/claw. It s not fancy, it s not pretty shiny stainless steel, but it never...
If flow goes down I would suspect a collapsing hose on the intake side of the pump but as bill said it could be a number of things incl.impeller,...
Personally I am a big fan of northern light and westerbeke... Very reliable, easy to maintain. On my own boat, I have an 18kw Norpro which has...
Good luck... Our Abyss have never lasted more than a year or two. First batch was replaced after they admitted having a bad batch of resin which...

I didn't know Raritan made any VF. Start with the duck bills... In some installations it can be painless, in others it can be a mess... It...
Very early 53 like mine have 8v71N, by 1973 most had turbos. The naturals will not get the boat on plane making it basically a trawler. I m...
A f things do not make any sense in that article... First, for the boat to be turned to port or starboard, the AP would have to be coupled to a...
Not winterized properly maybe? Winterized, is that the right word? Seems like a northern ritual :)
Well, keep in mind these boats are 20 to 40 years old so who knows what was done. Two fiberglass water tank failures on a single boat is probably...
You know what NEW stands for, right? Never Ever Worked :)
The down side of the 53 is the narrow 15'10" beam which is typical of the 60s root of the boat but by the 80s boat were getting beamier and the 54...
