I think that boat was already full of water.

I'm bringing her to Brewers Marina tomorrow, as I need to be out of the Tappen Beach marina. I may stay in the water through Thanksgiving, but definitely done after that. Brewers will pull and block her for the winter. I'll be deer hunting next week, but any time after that is fine. You don't need m...

I have 1200 feet of 5/8" twisted nylon line in the rope locker and 6 feet of chain on deck. I keep several extra lengths of chain below deck. Here's a partial list of the modifications I've made and some gear that I carry. Chain and Deck Pipe https://www.bosunsupplies.com/S3810-0000.html Anchor on d...

The good news is also the bad news..... The nice thing about the Sound is that you can pretty much anchor anywhere using practically zero scope (well, 2:1 or less). The muddy bottom just plain holds. The problem with the anchoring in the Sound is that the muddy bottom just plain holds, and half of i...

I used Starboard on my cockpit side panels, but Azek is just as good or better. It was never particularly important to me to have a self bailing cockpit (I did add several large bilge pumps) but since I spend a bit of time out in the slop on a boat with knee-high gunnels, I wanted toeholds wherever ...

I don't know nutin about it. I was in the baffroom at the time.......

You'll have to drill holes in the rudders for zincs. There will be anodes in the engines, the heat exchangers, and possibly the transmissions. Go on line and look for service manuals for your equipment.

It's a lost art. There used to be hundreds of people who painted names on commercial real estate door windows. Now it's all laser cut vinyl.....

How dirty is the bottom? What size are the props? Clean fuel and air filters?

mike ohlstein

If no one gets it before Saturday, I'll measure mine.

mike ohlstein

What gear ratio are the transmissions?

Photo bucket doesn't allow this sort of thing any more. Try Imgur.com

Generally, you just run them along the outboard side of the engines. 18 inches is enough. I'll try to get a picture of mine tomorrow.

Consider surge tubes. Another $50 adds a load of protection against hydrolock, bent valves, and a missed season.

Mike, By "stringers", do you mean any built-in (glassed) lateral supports under the deck, for rigidity? Not the keel stringers, right? Correct. Floor joists might be a more accurate description. The teak is often set on marine plywood, just like the wood floor in a house. If it's done thoughtfully,...

mike ohlstein

Many teak decks are put down in sections. There's usually a black caulk seam which is covering the screw heads...... You gouge up the calk to expose the screws. Remove the screws and the sections lift out. Open a hatch. Measure the distance (underside of the deck) from the edge of the hatch opening ...

We all pay anyway. That's where 90% of the tolls collected go. A subway/bus ride costs twice as much as they charge for one. So then they need to scratch for money when it's discovered that they've ignored the maintenance on the bridges and tunnels for 30 years..... Oooops. Let's just raise taxes a ...

Welcome! The Gas/Diesel discussion is never ending, but my 2 cents......Going out in the bay to catch some fluke or a bass? Gas. Heading off shore to do battle with the tuna and marlin? Diesel. If money is no object, it can't hurt to convert. For me, the deciding factor was not wanting to have to ge...

No

I'd be willing to bet 38 cents that's the original fuel tank. That may be why it was out of the water....... Do the engines run?
