Your wife sounds a lot like mine. #1 don't let anything stress you or she will feel it and not want to be around for it. #2 let he express herself, sometimes when I am docking and feel the pressure I get short and that really gets to her. I have learned to let her talk express herself and...

I believe I will go with the 22GB to be ordered next week and self-installed the week of thanksgiving. If the plan goes as thought I will take pictures and video and post full install on here.

Ok sorry was getting confused - apparently the espar temp sensor is in the unit not the remote which seems a bit whacky. So I guess the D2 vs the 22GB Wallas - which way would you go? H

I tried the RainX anti-fog - that was a waste of money. I think the Wallas heater (not stove top) will do well for my purposes with the positive airflow. Maybe its the newer C-Dorys or something but my Venture is sealed tight - there is no air "leaking out" unless I open windows and the door...

Thanks go to my buddy Xevin (alias on vw samba forum) who lovingly refers to my boat as the vw bus of the sea :-)

Thanks - yeah my biggest thing is that I don't like spending money twice. I rather get the right thing - looking at the Wallas 22GB that seems to be the one that will fit my needs. I don't want a cook top as I grill everything and have a little propane stove should I want to use a pan for...

@Colbysmith I have some good pictures of you on the highway after the trip - I didn't know how to post them in the thread for the trip. How do I post them or send them to you?. My buddy across the street was driving a VW bus on I5 when he took the pics. So are their heaters that create...

The espar seems intriguing as I could install it in a cubby on the back deck and I like that it takes air from outside it seems and creates positive airflow in the cab. I get about 1000 $ rebate on my electronics I could use towards this. Thanks all for your input. I also think some...

@MikeR as to the Wallas - can you mount this Wallas 1300 under the counter and run an exhaust vent? I rather not see it... @Marco Flamingo This deal looks too good to be true - doesn't look like it comes with a thru hull vent - is this something you purchase separately? How did you vent yours?

Funny thing is because of the insulation in the v-berth and cab of the venture I don’t really get much on the walls or the like - it’s the windows and their respective frames. When riding back from beacon rock this morning had to keep front hatch slightly open and side windows too to be able to...

Obviously I am tired after our trip since I apparently can't formulate a normal sentence. I meant heater not heather etc. was a great trip just need to figure this out.

I took my boat out for the first time for an overnight in pretty much constant rain trip this weekend on the Columbia with 2 other buddies, between out body heat/breathing we accumulated quite some condensation on the inside of the windows etc which is quite frustrating when trying to navigate...

I lived in Alaska for 10 years, in that time I ran many different brands including those listed above. The best tires bar none for winter driving are the nokian hakapeliitas. Blizzaks and michelins are fine but the Nokians are a class above in my opinion. The only thing is they are very soft...

I dont think we will be able to make it. Apparently the shop doing my bottom paint is behind schedule. We won't have our boat back till at the earliest next Friday. UGH!!! We'll see maybe they will complete it early but I doubt it. H

A flat bottom will not roll at much, the down side at speed in chop it will be a rougher ride. Modified V hulls which vary and handle vastly different depending on design offer a compromise. I recommend you test ride whatever you are looking at especially if your wife is sensitive to this -...

These guys have more cojones than I do.

My wife is in - so as long as I can take the time from work we’ll be there. I’ll confirm with you by Friday. What time are you planning on departing anacortes?

Being this would be my first trip up there if we can make it... what would the plan be? Meet somewhere and caravan together to the island or it’s a free for all how we get there? From a comfort standpoint seeing as it could be rainy etc for me following someone or caravaning would be...

They also make the venture in a sport version which is basically a stripped down version of the venture series - think 22/25 finish/no liner etc. when I compared the two adding options ended up costing more than buying the normal venture package and deleting what you don’t want. Ie I didn’t...

Send Ryan an email he will tell you what brackets they use.
