Re: Youtube liveaboard stars?

Re: Wiring batteries in parallel

Please forgive a newbie question:

Re: How to make offer for newbie, first ever boat viewing

Nice-looking boat! Especially for the price. Looks like she's been well-maintained and all the fundamentals appear to be sound. I'm jealous.

Re: Sail condition - How do you tell?

Thanks JBsurfin. On second look she was really a mess. I think it would take several thousand to get her up to scratch, and I don't really want that big a project. I'm holding out for a solid boat...

Re: Sail condition - How do you tell?
