Re: Marinas in Georgia, SC, NC for 3-4 month stay

Thanks for all the info so far. I think the bug situation at Brunswick will keep us from going there. Top of the list so far looks to be Charleston Harbor Resort, Palmetto Bay on Hilton head, and...

Re: Crossing from Bonaire to Culebra in Early November with Catamaran do-able?

I've done Bonaire to USVI and Salinas, PR for the last 3 years in November and December. Best bet is to wait for a low wind weather window and motorsail so you don't give up easting due to the...

Re: Curacao and the ABCs in general

Agree with lost of what was said below. Spanish waters in Curacao not a very nice anchorage for long stay, and it's a big island so you need a car. We had the boat hauled at Curacao Marine and found...

Re: Lagoon Escape Hatches Falling Out

I have a L450 and I'm going to make some patches like described below. Is it just the glass that falls out of the escape hatch? And the aluminum frame remains in place?

Re: Visit to Miami / Ft Lauderdale area next week - suggestions for marinas/eateries?

One of our favorite spots is "Le Tub". The best hamburgers you will ever have in a cool Caribbean feeling shack about 2 miles south of Port Everglades on the intercoastal.

Re: Just signed on a new 450s!

What do you use for fiddles to keep the pans on the stove? I've wanted to swap out the standard stove top for a domestic unit on our 450 but even with fairly small seas the pans slide off the stove...

Re: Couple 450 parts questions

I realize this is an old thread but I'm looking to replace the faucets in our 450 and have been unable to find anything that mounts to wall / bulkhead. Anyone find a source for something that works?

Re: B&G V50 VHF - change MMSI?

I went through this last year and could not find a way to do it myself. It took a couple of tries but I found a B&G dealer/repair shop Ft. Lauderdale who would do it.
