    Repair log - wet transom core

    One thing to keep in mind if you repair only the transom first is that there is no resin or epoxy barrier between the hull coring and the transom coring. So if you repair the transom, but the hull is still soggy and wet, it’s going to get the new transom coring wet unless you’re careful to seal...

    Raw Water Washdown

    I use the raw water wash down all the time and also have it plumbed to the galley sink for dishes and whatnot. It has a ball valve directly on the thruhull and we make sure to close the valve when away from the boat but otherwise leave it open for use.

    Trailering the Baja California Sur to La Paz

    You are in luck as I just did this trip 4 weeks ago. Probably best if you PM me with your number and I’ll give you a call. There is a lot to discuss. It was overall a fantastic trip and we will be returning to Baja. You have the right idea- take it nice and slow and you will have a great time.

    New Owner says hello ... am I doing this right???

    Nope, that’s exactly how it’s done. I’ll be ferrying my new to me boat in July.

    Repair log - wet transom core

    Sorry to hear this news, especially as boating season is starting. I have a 2003 and I had to replace the core in the transom also but it was the lower part of transom. One thing to consider, since it is may. I had a lot of rotten core in my hull and transom, but I did not have any soft spots or...

    Here is a dumb one, Sole's in 22 cockpits...

    I have dri-deck in Hammerhead and don’t care for it. I want to make some floorboards but the truth is the dri-deck may end up being good enough that other things are higher priority. The worst thing about it is it can slip out from under foot when you are leaning against the gunnel nearly...

    Garmin 498

    Jeff, to be clear, is the unit up for sale or offered up for free? If free, I would love to get this for my 16 year old son. He is restoring a 1968 Reinell. We could pay for shipping, of course. I could include a little extra beer money, if needed. Let me know please, Thanks!

    PM "outbox" vs "sentbox"

    Another question: Do messages in the outbox ever expire if the recipient never opens the message? I had a message in the outbox for a long time and now it’s gone but I’m not sure if that means it was read or if it just timed out.

    I haven’t seen where they have announced the dates yet? Am I missing something? I think they announced at the beginning of April last year.

    Baja 2025

    That is indeed a great cruising guide. My sister got me a copy and marked it up with notations after they cruised down there for about five years on their sailboat so it was really nice. Ed, I am doing repairs as I type this and will be putting the boat in the water today at Ridgefield. After I...

    Baja 2025

    The worst roads were just north of Guerrero Negro on Highway 1. Some sections of road are fine. Mexicali to San Felipe was only about three hours.

    Baja 2025

    No troubles at the border. I would say it was approximately 1.5 hours each direction, including wait time. The only downside to the whole trip was the long rough drive. I don’t recommend trailering all the way to La Paz to anybody. And I definitely would’ve preferred a tandem axle trailer. The...

    Baja 2025

    We just completed our first Baja trip. We ended up trailering all the way to La Paz and spent most of our time at Espiritu Santo. We had a great time and will be going back in the future. I’ve uploaded a few pics in my album: http://www.c-brats.com/modules.php?set_ ... _album.php
