Re: Caribbeans: all things must end.

We've cruised the Caribbean twice, once aboard a ragbag, once aboard a trawler. Both cruises lasted 2 1/2 years, our latest cruise is coming to an end in about two weeks when the new owners of our...

Re: Canadian COVID part-2

It's amazing that the same people are still here two years later pontificating about covid on an internet cruising forum. We left Lake Superior a year and half ago and been in the Caribbean ever...

Re: Covid?

And that's supposed to be an "issue"? Would you like me to list all the other requirements, including all the documentation for your boat, insurance, firearms (yes we are equipped with a Barrett .50...

Re: Covid?

No it's not. Been cruising the area for over a year aboard our trawler. It's only an issue on internet forums were people got nothing better to do. I hardly ever look at this forum anymore. Maybe...

Re: Canadian COVID-19 News

And you have to ask yourself, why is this? Down here, people moved on from it. You can go about your daily business, not a mask in site anymore. No restrictions, no signs on doors on stores anymore....

Re: Canadian COVID-19 News

What amazes me is that going on two years after the fact, and 2,735 posts in this thread, people have still not given up on corona. The only place it's still a problem is on internet forums, media...

Re: Northern Europe during Pandemic -- Summers 2020 & 2021

The fast-tracked clinical trials are rigged for success. Vaccine efficacy is typically proven by large clinical trials over several years. In this case they completed interim and primary analyses on...

Re: Northern Europe during Pandemic -- Summers 2020 & 2021

You need to study further. T-detect is also used in clinical research for studying immunogenetics derived innate immunity using the T-Map research tools. This is very important in vaccine clinical...

Re: Northern Europe during Pandemic -- Summers 2020 & 2021

All the latest rage is vaccine. But what about those of us who have already had corona and got over it? Antibodies don't mean you are immune to coronaviruses. The t-detect test from Adaptive Biotech...

Re: Covid vaccine after having covid

What we have here is a bunch of former sailors whose lives have been totally consumed by covid. Afraid to go outside because they might get within 6 feet of somebody who doesn't have vaccine. They no...

Re: Covid vaccine after having covid

Declared lack of respect for those who refuse to comply with your socialist agenda becomes self-righteousness. Don't matter what the excuse is.

Never thought I would see such utter nonsense,...

Re: Covid vaccine after having covid

Not self-identified. Blood test identified. We participated in a clinical study a year ago after we both tested positive for CoV-2, but neither of us was affected by the virus.

Re: Covid vaccine after having covid

It is now confirmed by a quite large study (larger than a couple of the vaccine trials) that vaccine does absolutely nothing for persons with natural or acquired immunity to SARS-CoV-2. Of course,...

Re: Covid vaccine after having covid

In this whole thing they are totally ignoring people that have innate, or pre-existing, immunity to coronaviruses thru genetics and blood type. They prefer to call us "asymptomatic carriers" without...

Re: CANADIAN COVID-19 NEWS

We've been in the Bahamas and Caribbean the whole winter, not a single problem going where we want to go, or finding nice anchorages. Unfortunately, our friends in Ontario that were supposed to be...

Re: Using a generator while on the hook?

I don't know what your program is. I'm a troll? It is widely known the world over that marine experts DO NOT recommend use of portable generators on boats.

Right in the installation manual for the...

Re: Using a generator while on the hook?

Our old Chris Craft motor yacht did not have them on the old Onan either. That's part of the reason for doing refits to bring them up to the latest standards.

Re: Using a generator while on the hook?

This would depend on if it blows your boat up and causes property damage to nearby boats or infrastructure.

The ABYC standard states that any permanently installed generator must be ignition...

Re: Using a generator while on the hook?

Not may, it will. You just created a ground loop on a boat with current flowing the ground conductor. You have no earth ground on the boat - its ground for fault protection is the boat's DC bonding...

Re: Using a generator while on the hook?

Ok,

What is electrically different in the marine generator is that it is electrically isolated from the loads in the system on the boat. Our particular unit is 480 three-phase for bow and stern...

Re: Using a generator while on the hook?

That is commonly called an "edison plug". They are not legal and only a "hack" to prevent tripping the ground fault protector with some appliances that have a built-in ground fault.

No metal below...

Re: Using a generator while on the hook?

Floating neutral systems are split-phase.

Re: Using a generator while on the hook?

No, it can't. Find me a marine surveyor that will approve it.

Does your little inverter genset have a bonded neutral? Every one I've ever seen is floating neutral. The shore power panel in your...

Re: Using a generator while on the hook?

Not my standards. USCG, ABYC and probably several other marine standards organizations. Quite amazing how some people think they have the "right" to tell others when and where they can run their...
