Please add to the list.

For electrical and RF

btrayfors



For batteries and DC systems

T1 Terry, Maine Sail


For Seamanship

atoll


For A~Z general knowledge

sailorchic34, Astrid




The above hardly scratches the surface of the collected knowledge that we have on this forum, so everyone add to it and make it more complete.
You have left out Jedi for electrical and also a broad spread of knowledge he would be No1.

Re: CF members to seek advice from

So, does this make other Seaman's opinions worthless?
