Re: To rebuild engine or not... that is the question

With this amount of hours and age, I would purchase a new engine if you are planning on going any real distance from home. Otherwise a touch up and replacement of mounts should be ok.

Re: How to power a cpap machine on a boat?

Re: Forced at gunpoint to jump off a sailboat in the Exumas

[quoted text redacted]

Re: 4 weeks Alaska cruise / camp - Where to start if you have a trailer as an option?

Would you haul a 33ft boat all the way from Florida to Alaska on a trailer? I certainly would not. Unless it was aluminium or steel.

Re: 4 weeks Alaska cruise / camp - Where to start if you have a trailer as an option?

Thats what i would do. You would not want to drive a trailerable boat all the way to Alaska, there probably would not much of it left on the trailer when you got there. Seattle to Desolation Sound...

Re: Urgent request from local boaters
