I just purchased a like new Carry On 7000 hatch mounted air conditioner for my 22 from a "local" off of Craig's List. It cost $250 and is rated at 6200 btu's. It has all the attachments and like I said, it is immaculate. I intend to use this while on shore power at our dock in North Carolina...

Last Friday, my wife and I caught 15 nice sized blue crabs off our dock in NC (Bath). In one pot, we steamed the crabs (fully seasoned)and at the same time dropped into the pot two potatoes, cut into 1/8ths, threw in two ears of corn, husk still on, and steamed them all together. The last 4-5...

Bought the 7/8"-1" socket. It comes with a spacer if you have a 7/8" rail. With no spacer, there is approximately a 1/8" gap between socket halves. Leads me to believe that the rail is 1 1/8". They do make a 1 1/8" to 1 1/4" socket, but returning what I have is not worth it - shipping costs...

Thank you all for taking the time on my behalf. This site is a very special place with special people. :smile John Swee Pea

Anyone know for sure the diameter of the bow rail on a 2004 22' Cruiser? I'm guessing it is 1". I am looking to get a flag socket and they are availabe for a 1" and 1 1/4" rail. I suppose a 1" would work with a 1 1/4" rail, but I would rather get the correct one, since they are expensive...

www.auroramarine.com I have used their products and they work. Buy a $30 Ryobi 6" buffer/polisher to help with the "elbow grease" - Home Depot. John Swee Pea

Been slow at getting started this year .... have a lot on my plate. Needed to get the trailer inspected and was the perfect opportunity to clean the boat bottom and coat with Aurora VS721 - good stuff. So, off the trailer and let the buffing begin. :lol: Then I noticed that the %#@&* rub...

You can go to my Swee Pea album and see my install - with trim tabs. John Swee Pea

I would like some more info on your install of the GE point of use unit. What went into the install? How hot does the water get? This is a "tankless" unit right? John Swee Pea

I have used products from Aurora Marine http://www.auroramarine.com/home/ and have been pleased. Go to their website and see what you think. John Swee Pea

I owned a 2001 4 Cylinder Jeep Wrangler. I would not tow anything with that vehicle. It has trouble getting up a steep hill without pulling something behind it. It's not built for towing. Many years ago, when I lived in Simi Valley, CA, I knew a guy who towed a small trailer/camper behind...

I thought with the addition of Stabil, that the fuel would be "stabilized" and would not degrade and lose octane -- that was the purpose to use the stuff? :?: Wouldn't a higher octane gas burn more efficiently, hotter (help burn off moisture), and give better mileage? I know it does in...

Just a suggestion from a "Right Coaster". :shock: How about someone bringing a camera and recorder (human or electronic) and take some pics and notes and put together a "how to" of the seminar being given? We will give you credit as "author author" and will have some good info to post in the...

When will we be hearing technical input regarding boat systems, repair, and seamanship techniques? And when will the "Tomcat No Longer For Sale" post be up? :wink: This is the prescription orderd to be filled by the C-Brat Doctors. Dr. Bob, you better follow their advice to the letter - it...

I don't want to hijack the winterization thread, so.... Haven't been able to get out on Swee Pea this summer ....had some first time back problems. Anyhow, feeling better a month ago, went to take her out and decided to start her up in the driveway just in case. Sputter, sputter, wouldn't run...

I have purchased from and was very pleased with price, service, and advice from www.gpsdiscount.com I don't know if they have what you are looking for at the price you want to pay, but its worth a look. :smilep I've got no stock in the company, just trying to help a fellow Brat. :wink John...

Although I have a 22', the bracket I used is the one being referred to. I likewise have a 15" shafted (Nissan 6hp) motor for my inflatable that can do "double duty" as a backup for the 22'. If you go to the Swee Pea Photo Album page 4, there are quite a few photos of the install. The bracket...

Well, I continued to search for what would be the "best" choice to waterproof my camper shower area. As most of you know, camper walls are constructed of luan covered with a thin vinyl or wallpaper like subsititue. After putting the project on the back burner for awhile, a new search happened...
