Hi Everyone
I am a brand new member of the Forum. My name is Dave Garrett and I am a 100 ton USCG licensed Captain (now retired). My current boat is a Pearson 365 Ketch called PEGASUS, and I sail her around the keys and Biscayne Bay.
So far, I don't know my way around the forum, but my current interest is in Diesel repair, and most marine maintenance problems.
The forum membership seems to be from all over the world.. I am located in Coconut Grove, Fl. and woul enjoy meeting any local Forum sailors and others heading this way.
Cheers,
Dave Garrett

Re: Hi Everyone
Welcome aboard! We spent a few days at the Dinner Key Marina at the Old Pan Am base in Coconut Grove in our trawler a couple of years ago. We really enjoyed it, it is a beautiful area with lots of good cruising nearby.

Re: Hi Everyone
Welcome Dave. I proposed to my wife while we were anchored in Biscayne Bay. I figured she would have to say yes because she can't swim! And I was right!
Cheers.

Aloha and welcome aboard!
Good to have you here. If you explore the subjects in the forums on the first line you'll see lots of information on diesels.
