Thanks for the heads up. This is a great deal from a well-respected manufacturer!

It's available from Amazon without the bag for $449 (minus taxes, no taxes for me in Oregon).

I don't know how your boat is wired and without a schematic no one is going to be able to give you a definitive answer. The situation you describe shouldn't occur though if things are wired properly. The dock power should easily be able run a heater and refrigerator and still charge batteries at...

Here's a diagram of the AC control panel I'm building for my '99 restoration. It shows conceptually exactly what Tom is talking about. The upper right double breaker is where shore power comes in. Unlike home electrical panels, both hot and neutral have a breaker. This is because some sloppy...

Claude could possibly be an enormous help. I’m not a programmer, but from what I hear, you could probably give the source to Claude and tell it how you want it changed, and it could actually be as easy as that.

Nitpicking here, but generating electricity with a hydroturbine under power from a gasoline-powered outboard IS a gainer (it gains you more electricity albeit at a higher cost), and it doesn't violate any laws of thermodynamics. If you need more electricity, this will give you more. It's just...

Dang, the new software allows only 15 minutes for editing, half the time of the previous software. Here's slightly better version of what I'm trying to explain... Cost aside, this makes sense for a sailboat, but with a prop driven boat it doesn’t. In theory, yes you could generate more...

In theory, yes you could generate more electricity on a C-Dory this way, but it would literally be less bang for the buck, not more. The energy produced by the turbine in the water takes more fuel per watt than that produced by the alternator. Cost aside, this makes sense for a sailboat, but...

I will add that not all electric brake controllers are compatible with EOH actuators. For example, the aftermarket Reese Brakeman Compact controller that I have mounted under the dash of my F250 and that I've been using successfully for years when hauling rental equipment with electric brakes is...

Oops I am referring to the sump in the back of the CABIN, to the starboard side of the cabin door. I’ve been told the newer 22s don’t have this sump so this may not apply to the OP. The sump in the back of the cockpit IS cored, though there the core is thinner than the rest of the hull. You...

On my 1999 that sump is not cored and I'm planning to mount the same Hawkeye transducer in that location. I got this idea from Sunbeam, who has done the same and reported good results. I plan on sealing the slot that drains from the cockpit into the cabin sump and moving the bilge pump that was...

1) Two sources that can give you info: Greg at NMI: (360) 389-5351 - can tell you who made those parts and Advantec Marine at 1 604-607-0091: likely the ones who made the parts and can sell you a new door. I ended up surfing the web to find a new door latch for my 22'. 2) I just went through...

Thank you Karl. This looks very much like what I envision needing. I notice your kicker is mounted higher than the transom top edge. What length is the kicker motor shaft and how far out do your trim tabs protrude? My motor has a 20" shaft and my trim tabs protrude 12-5/8".

I need to build a bracket so that my kicker has adequate clearance from the trim tab vane. For those of you that have a kicker and trim tabs, how far away does the motor need to be from the protruding edge of the trim tab? Obviously I want the kicker as close to the transom as possible. Thank you.

I also have Seastar hydraulic steering. What benefit does their $600+ cable tie system provide over a simple connecting rod?

I’m looking to hear how others have mounted their controls for controlling both main and kicker from the helm. I’m about to purchase a Mercury 115hp main and a Mercury 9.9hp kicker (remote steering and trim) and need to decide on controls. The main and kicker will be tied together with a...

Make sure that whatever you use is fire retardent.

Is there someway to get pictures and albums to get added in the reverse order that they are now? In other words, when you create a new album it gets shown at the end, instead of the beginning, of the list of albums. Same for adding photos to albums - if they could be added at the end of the...

This is what I do: Media - Your albums - <click on the album you want to add to> At this point you can see that particular album and then click on "Add Media". I have found that when you add media to an album it gets added to the beginning of the album, not the end. So if you want to document an...
