Re: Boats Less Than $30K Recent Noteworthy Finds

Don't count on it...they are leaky teakies. They found out later that a deck of plywood and teak over was a disaster.

Re: Boats Less Than $30K Recent Noteworthy Finds

Incredible price...doesn't get much better than this. Still, people here will use the same excuse...too big, not new enough, wrong keel, oh it's a ketch, the layout is wrong and so on.

Re: Boats Less Than $30K Recent Noteworthy Finds

I think that has been true for many years now. At least in my opinion. It's sad in one regards, that the lifestyle of the ordinary guy, messing with boats is coming to an end but I'm happy for the...

Re: Through hull sealant that can go in water before cured

Thanx everyone...but real men don't need a head...just a bucket overboard. But it is a bummer living alone on a boat because of it...:biggrin:

Through hull sealant that can go in water before cured

Guess who snapped of the head water intake valve handle?...:banghead: I will need to hang in the slings and replace the valve and probably the thru-hull as I'm guessing the set up is 44 years old....

Re: Boats Less Than $30K Recent Noteworthy Finds

Not really. They are designed Herb David and actually sail much better than the 32 and have a much finer entry. Not a lot of beam either like the 32, so it requires less effort to go through the...

Don't faint...It's a Taiwan Bentley 38. Trust me...you do not want one of those.

Re: Boats Less Than $30K Recent Noteworthy Finds

They listed that boat as an Ingrid 38. It was neither an Ingrid or Alajuela. It is a Bentley 38 which was the Taiwan knock-off and came with all the Taiwan boat problems.

Re: West Marine Restructures Debt

I have had nothing but problems with them, the few times I used them. I purchased foam hatch gasket and while packing it, used packing tape to hold it in a tight coil. To remove the tape would tear...

Re: Plastic thruhull and Sika-291i

Oh sure...after 90+ years of DC black being negative and red being positive it's so easy to forget and hey yellow as negative?...ya, that makes sense. How do you manage to tie your shoes?

Re: Plastic thruhull and Sika-291i

I believe they are also responsible for the color coded duplex wire of red and yellow instead of red and black.

Re: Work as a glassfiber and gelcoat worker around ?

Ahh…I wondered when you called it glassfiber. I do not think it is generation as much as it is the way it is done here in the colonies.

Re: West Marine Restructures Debt

Amazing at the prices they charge that they would be in debt. Maybe because of online sales.

Re: Work as a glassfiber and gelcoat worker around ?

Any gelcoat repair match (and I have done a lot of matching) I have done has been with a base white gelcoat in a can and 3-4 tints. I have never heard of carrying 30 different gelcoat colors mainly...

Re: Pearson 365/367

Mine had been replaced at one point. Not sure they were steel or aluminum. I read on the FB page that people remove the engine to replace them. I think that is fool-hardy. I think the best way would...
