Re: Registering my boat for cruising

Thanks for that. I assumed so, but have never heard anyone clarify that statement of "registration."

I'm actually going to the Abacos so I'll be checking in at West End.

Registering my boat for cruising

I'll be taking my 30' cruiser to the Bahamas this summer. Do I need more than my state registration documentation? Surely I don't need federal documentation from the Coast Guard?

Re: Pump out in Abaco?

I appreciate your reply. I have since completely redone my boat's plumbing and I now have the option of a macerator for pumping out my tank. I should be good to go now.

Re: converting fresh water flush to lake?

Wow Peggie! Thanks so much for that information and recommendation. It's nice to know now exactly what I have and what it's "supposed" to be.

I will likely take your advice at some point, but...

Re: converting fresh water flush to lake?

Sorry if I confused you, or myself. I may be using slightly different verbiage because I was trying to make a distinction that my "fresh" water is actually fresh, and not salt water. Anyway - thanks...

Re: converting fresh water flush to lake?

Thanks Peggie. I was wondering about this issue, but wasn't sure how to put it into words. All of the previous heads I'm familiar with were manual and pulled from the lake.

This head is on a 1987...

Re: converting fresh water flush to lake?

Thanks guys. I figured in my case the benefits for a lake draw would far outweigh and benefits on the other side, but I wanted to check and make sure I wasn't overlooking something.

converting fresh water flush to lake?

My head pulls the flush water from my fresh water tank. With only 30 gallons it can go quickly. I understand that it's not typically desirable to pull in salt water for ongoing use, but since 99% of...

Re: Pump out in Abaco?

I knew pump outs wouldn't be the norm, but I was hoping there might be one every now and then. My boat's plumbing only goes to the holding tank. I'm going to have to make some adjustments before our...

Pump out in Abaco?

Are there any pump out services in Abaco? In looking at Active Captain I'm either finding no services or no mention of it.

Re: Need help with route planning - Abacos

Thanks for all of the input. I think I am on a good track for a plan, but I'm likely going to have plan A, B, C, etc.

I'm definitely checking in at West End just due to being cautious with fuel. I...

Re: Need help with route planning - Abacos

Excellent advice. Thanks. I'll look into that.



It will not be a long trip (a week) if everything goes as planned. But I'm prepared to sit out any weather issues for as long as it takes. So I'm...

Re: Need help with route planning - Abacos

We're going to explore, snorkel, and generally hang on the hook. Eventually we'll do some local stuff as we get closer to Green Turtle and Treasure Cay, but that's not the primary interest.

Re: Need help with route planning - Abacos

Wow. Where to begin with all of these great comments! Thanks for all of the input.

Yes, I'm on a 30' powerboat, so the .8 mpg is unfortunately accurate. It's also correct that I'm from TN and the...

Great feedback. It sounds like I definitely want to be looking at NMEA 2000. I definitely want something that is networked and will allow me grow slowly into the system.
