    Fixing small leaks

    We have two tiny spots inside our V-Berth that have water stains from leaks. I'd like to patch the area on the walls to stop the ingress of water. What is the best patch material to use?

    Photo galleries

    I see many of the photo galleries are still there, but I can't find mine. Will it be back, or did I lose all of my photos?

    C-Dory prices are insane!

    Quarter million for a C-Dory. Definitely a seller's market. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1068690127784830?rid=7158787660869381&ad_id&rt=1&refID=0&refType=0&referral_code=commerce_attachment...

    A new use for jon boats

    During my walk this morning, I stopped to watch the dismantling of the old Redondo Beach Sportfishing pier. I assumed they would have divers sawing the pilings near the bottom, but instead, they simply rammed them with a jon boat and hauled them up. https://youtu.be/wDw-u6THc98

    Dive boat modifications

    Now that our boat is finally back in the slip, I cleaned up the greasy footprints from being in the boatyard for two months. We're still waiting for the dealer to program the starboard motor so the gauge can communicate with it. I forgot to include an external speaker I installed for the VHF...

    Repowering; The Long And Winding Road

    When we purchased our Tomcat in 2010 it came without grommets on the motors. I had never owned an outboard with a rigging hose before, so I didn't know any better. Over the years, the rigging hoses came loose every time we turned the wheel or tilted the motors, allowing saltwater intrusion onto...

    Models on Ebay

    I saw these on Ebay. I don't know who makes them but someone might be interested. They don't have any Tomcats, though. :( https://www.ebay.com/sch/marelwel9/m.html?item=164899617130&hash=item2664c8796a%3Ag%3AdnwAAOSw4i9gu5tk&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562

    Starboard fuel tank access in Tomcat 255

    I need to replace my fuel lines and look for a possible gas leak in my starboard tank. Do I need to remove the floor inside the cabin or cut the deck in the cockpit to gain access?

    Idiots at Catalina Island

    I was watching the bald eagle cameras a couple of days ago when I heard a lot of gunfire. Three men on a sailboat were shooting into the water and at the cliffs near the West End. I called the Sheriffs at Two Harbors, as did a few more people watching the cameras. They took one guy into custody...

    Our last dive...for now

    We're going diving on a friend's boat tomorrow while ours remains in the shop. In spite of a broken drive shaft during our last run, we had a good dive. We visited Hermosa Beach Artificial Reef, about a mile north of where the shaft split.

    Honda BF150 overheated, now won't move

    We had just throttled up outside the marina when the starboard motor revved up and the overheating light and alarm sounded. I shut the motor down immediately and checked for kelp or plastic blocking the intake. Everything was clear. After a few minutes, I started the motor but despite the...

    Best of 2019

    We've had pretty lousy conditions locally since May, so most of my decent images came from God's Pocket in British Columbia, Canada. http://diver.net/bbs/posts003/91650.shtml

    Annual God's Pocket slide show

    We just returned from our best vacation ever. The new owners and crew at God's Pocket Resort in British Columbia have made the place even better than before. The lake-like conditions didn't hurt, either. https://spark.adobe.com/video/chLdbGWWQuirU
