So far we've done Lockwoods Folly Inlet, Shallotte Inlet, Hell Gate, Little Mud River, and this morning Browns...

    Great New Site for Florida Cruisers

    2006 22 Cruiser, $42,000 (Minneapolis, MN)

    We sold Semi-Local to a wonderful couple from Louisiana. Look for them down NOLA way aboard "Jeannie Voodoo." And look for us along the East and Gulf Coasts aboard our new Semi-Local, a PDQ power catamaran. Best to the Brats!

    Best Buy to Sell Marine Electronic; Geek Squad to Do Install

    Electronics are already one of the lowest margin marine items. Can't see prices getting much lower unfortunately. The benefits may have to come in what Best Buy can bundle (other accessories as an example) or the simple perqs like RewardZone credits, etc.

    iPad 3G for e-Navigation

    Agree, agree, and agree. A keyboard/stand has been announced and previewed but the BT-extensibility has not yet been fully disclosed. Until we see the answer to that, Im not jumping either. In the end, I think people are going to have to like IPad apps (exactly as they are) to go in this...

    iPad 3G for e-Navigation

    Hi Folks, If anyone is thinking of getting an Apple iPad, you may want to wait for a few more weeks. The iPad 3G will have a GPS receiver. Probably a better choice for mariners. Best, Mark
