I don't have an iphone yet, but am tempted by the beautiful touchscreen. Are there any nautical chart iphone apps that work to make the iphone a...
That's what I'm wondering. Why does the world's most popular sterndrive have the bellows as the sole watertight seal. It would probably cost money...
It's also a question of how easy it is to maintain something. Is it easier to maintain a stuffing box seal or pull off an outdrive to replace the...
Maybe the idea of a hard dinghy is a good one for me -- my boat is small though so there isn't room on the swim platform to take a dinghy...
Love the story and photos in the second post, but the pictures of her being destroyed are really sad :(
http://www.boatstoreonline.com/ also has a bunch of mercruiser knock-offs which for a low-performance application will probably be more than fine...
There are lots of boats on the market. I'm no pro by any means, but my advice is to take your time and add up your costs to get the boat in the...

I have two batteries and two engines, currently with one battery directly connected to each engine. Certain pumps and accessories are tasked with...
Thanks rasorinc -- the small sea eagle yacht tender at 59 lbs might be perfect for my needs. Starting at 100 lbs, the runabout would be a bit...
P.S. I don't think I need a mac for the mac virus-immunity as I don't plan to run **** or illicit software on my notebook chart plotter :)
http://golden-shellback.com/ is the stuff

I was looking at some industrial pc notebooks that claim to be weather sealed (don't think they would be waterproof, but splashproof much more...
Is there a waterproof sealed mac notebook?
OK, I've downloaded seaclearII and I've downloaded the raster BSB charts from the NOAA site. I extraced the zip file and now have a folder...
Looks interesting -- only question I have is do you have to stand up to reach the wheel? Or do you operate from the side seat sitting sideways?
I know rushing here and there isn't for everyone safewalrus, but I enjoy taking a day trip here and there and having time to do a little...
