IMO, almost anyone who has crashed a military aircraft deserves a promotion if they survived the Martin-Baker ejection!

Charlie, Not to be a snippity little piss ant but on your site, it isn't the Intercoastal Waterway - it's the Intracoastal Waterway. Obviously, you know the difference between inter- and intra-. Just thought you might like to know. Norm

I love Geology. During grad school (Univ of Oklahoma) I elected to take the Geology Majors 110/111 course w/ lab for students declared and accepted into the school of petroleum geology. One of the absolute all time best courses I've ever taken (outside of my own career field). 135 students, 98...

I can tell you from real world experience what happens when the "Chief Officer" on duty (in this case a Major in the USAF) approves of the removal of four jet engines on a C-141 Starlifter aircraft (in hangar for a major isochronical inspection) without having first reviewed the log book (which...

Not sure if you did or did not read my thread, but you echoed what I addressed:

I hear you about the humor and agree sometimes humor is the best answer - no issues/worries on that. However, as "others" who don't know us, aren't familiar w/ our candor, and aren't members might be cruising our site, it just might provide more of a clear meaning of the intention of the forum...

I watched Raul's 50th anniversary celebration of the Cuban Revolution in Santiago de Cuba last night. Basically stating he expectations of Obama are too high, but none-the-less, he believes there might be some easing up of restrictions to travel - one can only hope. Georgs, Definitely keep me...

I think Cuba sounds like a fantastic trip! Keep us posted as to when you're planning on heading out. I've cruised the Greater and Lesser Antilles but never Cuba and I would very much like to cruise Cuba. Stay in touch if you do plan to go.

I would agree - a forum of vendors, merchandise, dealers, service(s) which did not meet expectations would not be a bad thing - although, it would not be called suck(y) this or that - it requires a higher level of English nomenclature to be effective. If we were to develop a forum of this type...

Hey Guys- Thanks a ton for responding. I'm glad to hear I wasn't the only one (which honestly, I suspected) they delivered a 25' Cruiser (or other model boat) to with backward wiring. Let me digest this with more time before I decide what to do e.g. call C-Dory or call Rule-Mate or both and get...

So, I had the boat out for one week - this was it's second excursion - about 100 miles or so (200 hundred round-trip) - from Beaufort, NC to Cape Fear, NC. To my surprise, I realized the Bilge Pump was hooked to the Cabin Drain Pump. I would turn on the Bilge Pump, and the Cabin Drain Pump (e.g...

T.R. What make, model & year truck does Sarah drive?

I was only providing guidance on the materials for inside the cabin (in general). Deciding on mounting a waterproof receptacle in the cockpit is another dimension. I can certainly think of some options which would provide very good fully sealed protection (they do make some), but again, it all...

There are several options you have: (1) Surface Mount - fastest, easiest, protrudes into space, less appealing, but is funtional. Requies a single hole through wall, etc for wire & clamp; (2) Recessed Mount - takes longer, need jig-saw for the cut-out, does not protrude above surface, most...

Yep, should be ~96Ah/Group 27. An Interstate SRM-27 is rated at 160 minutes Reserve Capacity which means the battery can be discharged for 160 minutes (2 hours and 40 minutes at a 25-amp level @ 80° F) before dropping below 10.5 volts. To approximate Marine/RV battery Ah ratings, we multiply the...

Right, I saw into Joe's perpetual energy machine - not what I had intended or was conveying. However, I have a 2008 Suzuki DF150. I'll look at the documentation closely in short order to see if there are two output separator plugs. Also, I have a 2007 C-Dory 25' Cruiser and yes it came with...

Joe, Good timing. I've spent more time on the boat than the garage duplexes - my bad. I think you're correct as it relates to even my "current" [absolutley NO PUN INTENDED I tell you] electrical grid - I'll confirm this further - but, thus far tracing the cable runs from the Guest 5/5/10, and...

I have two Type 27 Series batteries. I just reviewed the Guest 5/5/10 Charger. I don't think I even need to upgrade my Battery Charger. This Guest 5/5/10 is a very decent Battery Charger. I think I'm just going to put the Xantrex PRO Inverter XM 1800 on the current electrical grid and plot/chart...

It doesn't look like the DF150 has dual circuit outputs - which is fine, no worries. I was just thinking I might have another option to consider if there were two independent circuits available from the alternator. I just reviewed the 44 amp alternator on the DF150 - reaches nearly 80% of it's...
