Just rogering up...again the SPOT does not transmit on 406 or 121.5. Additionally with the spotty coverage (no pun intended) up here in South East Alaska, there is no real certainty with the SPOT satellite systems where the ones that monitor the 406 net are owned and operated by NOAA or other...

Bob & Nancy (Ashley Lynn), I just purchased the ACR TerraFix (same as the Aquafix). It has not arrived yet but it will be a definite value added with regard to boating safety and our peace of mind. I confirmed with ACR the Aerofix, Terrafix and Aquafix are all the same, its just a marketing...

The SPOT is a great concept and talking with others and reading the other post it works fairly well. Being up here in Alaska I continue to have very spotty coverage (no pun intended). Yes the coverage map shows full coverage but I assure you it is far less. We have used it on hikes and fishing...

And yes for any non believers, that is a black bear about 35 ft up a tree.

Me trying my hand at dip netting...they still fight like heck.

2 hours and a few bruised limbs later we had the priviledge of hiking through brown bear country with 100 lbs of fish. Cleaned on the boat ride home.

Returning home from first overnight

First time out fishing, not too bad!

Hi Gary, I guess the question would be how far back you are going to put your arch? A real possible option would be to place your arch up forward and turn it around so that its canted toward the bow. This way you would hopefully be able to use the full roof for your tender and mount any lights...

I just saw a 2008 22' Cruiser and the factory installed three compartments in the v-berth, a large hatch up forward and two hatches under each bunk. All watertight of course, and each one had a fiberglass bulkhead to fully compartmentalize each so the entire space doesn't flood in the event of a...

Thank you all for sharing what you have done and the great ideas, I'll post pictures when I finish. Byron

Hello, I was looking for some recommendations, solutions, etc. on how to close the exposed anchor area off in the v-berth. I would like to fabricate (or at least try to as painful as it may be) something like you see in the 25 cruiser with a hatch to access the chain/line. Thanks in advance...

I tried siphoning kits but it was just as bad as the foot pump (of course I purchased the cheapest which may have played a small part). I got a small hose that fit securely over the faucet and hooked up my hand bilge pump and it took about 10 minutes. I added RV antifreeze and used the foot pump...
