Re: Depth transducer inside hull?

I've done three times on different boats with a cone of silicone. Press and move into place to avoid bubbles. Worked excellent in each install. And would be easy to remove if problematic.

Re: What is the best strategy for rejuvenating my mainsheet cars?

Jet the traveler car bearings with liberal amounts of fresh water. Lubricate with Harken One Drop, which is made specifically for traveler and jib car bearings.

Re: Yamaha 9.9 High Thrust (2015) - Cooling issue

Had two sets of Yamaha 9.9s on our previous Seawind cat. The original 9.9s were when it was a charter, so you know they were never flushed. A Yamaha mechanic recommended using The Works toilet bowl...

Re: Pickling RO watermaker - Sodium Metabisulphite vs Potassium Metabisulphite

JT (Tellie) has always recommended to us to pickle with propylene glycol, the Pink stuff in a jug that we purchase from West Marine. We installed a new Spectra 150D in 2015, used in Bahamas in...

Re: Cruising the US from a Trailer Sailor

We've owned two Corsair tris. Neither took a wide ramp, as you launch the boat still folded on the trailer, and unfold on the water. I could rig and raise the mast on both the 24 and the 28R by...

Re: Increasing charging rate from mass combi

Thanks. That's what I remembered. Our Honda 2200 going thru a 100 amp Mass Combi maxed out at 90 amps bulk charge on MLI (Mastervolt LiFeP04) battery.

Re: Marriage Savers - do you use them?

Re: Marriage Savers - do you use them?

How old are yours? We have the SPH10-10 set. Like I said, used only about 8 months in 3.5 years, and having problems. Am reluctant to buy another set if this is expected life.

Re: Marriage Savers - do you use them?

Yes, we use them and love them. Purchased a set at the Annapolis Boat Show in late 2018. Used them in 2019 and 2022 cruising seasons (4 months), but otherwise sat stored in the house. ...

Re: Increasing charging rate from mass combi

Yep, when we are motoring, we have a DC-to-DC charger moving amps from the start battery to the Mastervolt LiFePo4 (MLI) battery, at the same time the Solar ChargeMaster is also sending amps to the...

Re: Increasing charging rate from mass combi

Ok, incoming stupid question. You have a 1600-watt generator putting out AC amps to a MassCombi charger putting out DC amps into your lithium battery. Is your MassCombi a 60 amp model (because mine...

Re: What temp should a fridge be at?

Re: New entry level catamaran from Lagoon, FP and R&C?

Hmmm, I guess I missed the Lagoon purchase. Seem to remember just a few years back you sold a Corsair, and were looking for something bigger. And only galley up. Thought all that time you were...

Re: New entry level catamaran from Lagoon, FP and R&C?

Re: New entry level catamaran from Lagoon, FP and R&C?

Re: New entry level catamaran from Lagoon, FP and R&C?

Uh, I think the tiller would lose a lot of buyers. But we can agree on not liking the rear exposed helms. Even though I think the 1600 has them.

And every boat is a compromise. My personal...

Re: Boat listing price vs offer vs actual sale price
