Sunbeam, great info and Colbysmith, great pictures. My 6HP is a 4 stroke which will tie right into the main (90 ETEC) gas line. Not sure yet if I'll tie steering in but the bracket is there on the ETEC Seastar setup. The mini jacker looks like the way to go, don't even have to pull the gas...

Key point Alexander.... a couple of years ago.... Charlie

And all my new Garmin electronics were a good deal at WM too with 2X gold points too. That should buy some extra goodies. It's a Boat US special. Charlie

Right on Sunbeam! :thup :D Maine Joe, not Main....Although you may be my Main Man as far as funny stories go... :mrgreen: Charlie

Bit the bullet here and bought all Garmin for Captain's Choice II. I will have my C-80 system, Autppilot, Radar etc for sale by late winter, early spring. It is a 2005 original install (by Les at EQ marine, I'm the second owner) and, while it would have done the job, I just craved something...

In a fit of patriotism, I called the Pentagon today. I volunteered to come back on active duty. After talking to about 6 offices, I finally got my answer.. They asked about my experience in my 31 years in the USN. Then politely asked how old I was. I asked when I could come in for a...

Congratulations Steve! Nice boat!! :thup Charlie

Correct, Maine where I have a home, is Down East, not Far East!! :? :mrgreen:

I didn't even know they had a FB page... :oops: I will check it out! And I THOUGHT I was "well connected"! :disgust Charlie

What risk, the boat or Cape Sante as a place to put it? I'd check out both. Stay away from FaceBook timeline, Don't ask me how I know... :shock: If you use FB or the TimeLine, check your privacy settings closely!

Doesn't sound like fun to me but then I'm maybe not as old as OLDGUY83 :roll: . Not quite 72 here yet. If you're young and adventurous, go for it! IMHO $3500 is an excessive price. If I were you and if you were as above stated, I'd go look at it with about $1000 cash in my pocket and be...

Interesting for those who "need" it. Here in the CBay, I rarely anchor in water over 20' deep. 25' of chain is more than enough!! :thup Thanks for the info though! Charlie

I'm with you George! I've got an "old" C-80 and autopilot on my latest 22 with a borrowed chip from Peter which I've yet to spend the time working on. I'll get a ROUNDTUIT soon though! Still haven't even gotten the Flowscan 3100 display fixed ala Pat Anderson who did! Meanwhile, my iPad 3...

You're welcome Susan. And yes it's a nice photo, but I'm missing... That's the price I pay for being on the "Wrong Coast". :roll: :mrgreen: Maybe it's a better photo BECAUSE of that though... :P Charlie

Still dark here in VA at 0630. It's the same time at our home in Maine but an hour closer to sunrise! I love both places but Maine is better in the winter except for the snow [ I said that for TXJim ] Charlie

We've moved up, down and sideways... :shock: Now back to a 22 where we started with C Dorys in the late 90's. :thup :love

As Roger Bumgarner knows, when cows swim, I'll be a fisherperson! No offense to fishermen/women in the crowd! :mrgreen: Roger has more fun with projects than almost anyone I know... :wink: On my second Keurig coffee after a long post in the Nerd Shack! Why do those VESPA scooter ads keep...

Well, here I am again. And I have Lumina 1720 Windows 8.1 phones through AT&T which work well. I have installed an ATT home base Internet device and have two wireless land lines, one is at my home in Maine and the other here in Heathsville, VA. They both will ring here if I chose to have...

Hi Blake.... Your "ideal amount" depends on how and where you will use it. I suspect George has determined that as he has already has spent many hours cruising and using! :wink: He's also spot on concerning the installation, I have not installed this version but have installed a V700. I'd...

Bought a '99 Evinrude 6hp 4 stroke with 25 hours on it for $750 at local dealer! Now to mount it to stbd of my '05 90 hp ETEC! Black and White will just have to be OK. Not having the thing painted! :wink Charlie
