Re: How do you use your boat?

Re: Wristwatches suitable for sailing, celestial navigation, anc scuba diving

Re: Question about 'mayday' situations.

I've seen CPR given for much longer than that. We had a Chief die while exercising on the sub I was on, CPR was started and we had to wait until we'd transited close enough to the Bahamas for a...

Re: Which % of saving would you spend for your cat

You first need to look at your total spending for the past ~2 years. That will tell you what you actually spend (based on your other response of "it can probably be comfortable at ~1.5k/month you...

Re: Bahamas drones

I'd check Ebay for used DJI drones. They just came out with a new model so lots of people are upgrading. I've seeen $900 combo's up for ~$450 sometimes lately.

Re: Health Care & Diabetes

Cruisers: how long do you stay?

Re: Youtube liveaboard stars?
