New oil samples to be pulled this week. The boat is 12V only, but if I added an inverter I’d probably want to do a dedicated bank
Nightmare scenario is the generator quits on the way to the Bahamas. This 50 is really not setup to be without AC power. Our 42 was great because...
Hmm maybe the phasor is worth a look after all. At least to save a little money on the front end
There was a thread somewhere about someone mounting a genset on rails where they could unpin it and slide it left and right to get to the front of...
Next up: 2-3 weeks of deferred engine maintenance c/o Ace marine diesel. Coolers, injectors, turbos etc. Also decision on whether to let the...
She’s home
820 hp mans. And she’s fast. Delivery captain has moved her from Niceville (Destin area) to ft Pierce via marathon in 3 days. He said they’ve been...
So far so good. She’s made it to marathon. An easy run up the coast from there. [ATTACH]

We’re closed on Floridita. Sadly, I won’t be able to bring her over myself due to work and family obligations. Delivery captain picks her up...

I will be soon. We close in a little over a week. Do you know the boat?
Like the custom job! I definitely like the flexibility and load-spreading of linear chocks. I wonder why more people don’t use them? Millions of...
Wondering folks opinions on the weaver style adjustable universal chocks for the specific application of mounting a 12’ AB fiberglass RIB on the...
The key to following seas with the post and most other boats is to keep the tabs all the way up and, as RT46 notes, the bow light. That said you...
One other thing I’ll add - when you come across opinions of these boats - pay attention to whether the opinion is coming from someone who’s...
I think Capt Ralph is talking about my boat, which is a 2000 42’ with Volvos and will be for sale in a couple of months. The Gen 2 post 42 was a...
Had the survey and sea trial today. As is probably to be expected for a 30 year old boat, lots of punchlist items coming out of it. Little things...
Would you think about chartering first? It’s a great way to see exotic places like the USVI and Croatia while also learning the ins and outs of...
Yes the paint job was very well done
