Re: Need IRS tax advice for casualty loss deduction (not hurricane-related)

Well, my loss was in 2017 so it would still be deductible.
(I filed an extension, so I have not filed my 2017 return yet.)

Re: Caribbean to Pac NW

FYI, Taunya is now considering the alternative more northerly route instead going via Bonaire. This looks better with the current wind patterns, and would give the opportunity to cruise the Bocas del...

Re: Urgent Need NOW for Experienced Crew: BVi to St Martin & St Kitts

Yes, of course we could make it there, but there is indeed a loan and even if risk is low, we would rather not take a huge financial loss if the unlikely worst happens. Better safe than sorry. Thank...

Re: Estimating materials for bottom painting

It's an older fiberglass boat with epoxy barrier coat and 2-3 coats of well worn Micron CSC ablative, with which the Pettit SR 40 is reportedly compatible.
