Hey all, I have been tinkering with ideas on how to design a new exhaust riser to inject water at a later stage which will in turn prevent the...
I unfortunately only have the weight of the glass and the total weight after cured. I did not think about weighing the resin before:( Weight of...
Title says it all. Trying to figure out the resin to glass ratio on this new mount I just made for my windlass.
I used this stuff on my boat in the cabin top area. The existing furring strips place were 1/2" thick and I made cedar planking strips. These were...
Thanks! The whole thing will just be lightly sanded and probably just painted white(maybe gelcoated). It will all live under the locker while the...
Thanks fallguy. I haven't had to deal with moulds yet, but I was thinking i would overside it and then trim after the fact. Thanks for the...
Hey all I am looking at making a "pedestal" which will be used to raise my windlass up out of my anchor locker roughly 10"(give or take) so that...
I agree that I need to double check that sizing of drains are correct but regardless it doesnt solve the fact that the leaks are occurring due to...

That is great to know! I will have to dig around in my stringers to make sure no rot is present. I am not aware of any but there may be some I am...
MIA - Looking through your post, you went with a similar mount design as what my previous owner did, except yours are through bolted. Being this...
Doing it while the engine still in the boat will be challenging for sure. I'll take a look at the link. I will have to take a look at the idea of...
Hey guys, I've got a long laundry list of things to do on my boat. Some of them in progress, some in planning, some in the acquisition of...
I like that idea of reducing chargers. My inverter is a charger as well, so maybe I'll look further into just using that. I agree that it will...
Interesting idea. How many batteries/banks are you going to be running? It seems like separating out systems will create more redundancy but...
Sorry for the delay. Work cropped up on me, the wife was out of town so I was able to make a mess of the boat and therefore am nearly done with my...
Good catch Gonzo, they are 6v lifeline batteries, not 12v. I was looking at 12v batteries at the time of creating the diagram and totally blanked....
