BMW D50-2 for free

We are pulling our motor from a Krogen 38 and going electric. Motor has about 400 hrs since overhaul in 2010 but needs new rings and Pistons at very least. Parts are incredibly hard to find for...

survey for core moisture

Hello again,

Am looking at a 30 year old boat that has been in fresh water for 25 without a haul out. Has bottom paint but not sure about barrier coating under that. (Is that standard at...

Re: Inland lake sailors

It's on the option list but it's an eight hour drive each way, really more than anyone wants in a weekend. One hour on SW airlines with a two week advance purchase. Since we don't usually know the...

Re: Inland lake sailors

We have considered the trailer sailor and even if we did get one that small it will stay in the marina in a slip. We owned a catamaran on a trailer for several years and the evolution of getting it...

Re: Inland lake sailors

They are, and it probably will. Somebody's going to have to take all of those boats out of there someday.

Re: Inland lake sailors

Boatyard guy says fresh, warm water is the worst thing for osmotic blistering and it's likely to have a really bad case of them after 20 years. Still, can't really tell until we lift it out.

Inland lake sailors

We have found a sailboat we really like, for what we think is a pretty nice price and we have a slip for her on a reservoir lake near our home in Arizona. The problem is she is on another inland...

Re: Paperwork for Parrots

Well, I would say I'm pretty much in complete agreement with Tori on everything - I really didn't want the thread to digress on the subject of husbandry or behavior but rather doing proper service to...

Re: Paperwork for Parrots

Well, that would be a "vanity clip" and it is not recommended by avian veterinarians in modern practice for a number of reasons but I won't get into it because it is beyond the scope of this forum. ...

Re: Paperwork for Parrots

Well, conures are not trimmed, which is good actually. They fly three orbits and land back on the boat. They fly even when trimmed so we don't bother. Cockatoo is trimmed and she's the dodo bird I...

Re: Paperwork for Parrots

GaryMayo: You're right about the catfish - our lake has small-child-eating-size catfish, and they DO feed off the top. Initially sailing around our mountain lake I worry about the raptors as well....

Re: Paperwork for Parrots
