Yes, but you can steer the boat by walking from one side of the cockpit to the other.

I just a new burgee from Kathy in this thread. http://www.c-brats.com/viewtopic.php?t=32429

On my '08 22 cruise with a Honda BF90D. I plan using 3 mpg. Depending on the load and speed, my actual mpg is between 3.3 and 4 at cruising speeds. Planning with 3 mpg builds in a reserve and accounts for things like idling, battery charging, etc.

If you are getting the WOT rpm, then the prop should be correct. I would check that the cavitation plate is just at the surface of the water, not necessarily aligned with the hull when the boat is planing. Seems like a big jump in speed from 5000 to 5800 rpm. Kinda suggests that the needs a...

Breakers are more convenient the fuses. I have the factory panel. If I were to replace it, I'd get one with illuminated legends. MY factory panel seems to be built with the option of illuminated legends, but there is no light source. Where I have added switches, I used Carling Contura type...

Just remember with a split is that the outside unit will be dumping heat. If this blows into the cockpit, it might make that area uncomfortable (especially on days where you need to use the AC). The other thing is that the split units come with fixed lengths hoses (usually something like 16ft)...

Colby, Do you know if it possible to change the color of the boat stripes on the the burgee? The earlier burgee was a patch sewn to a pennant. If this version is directly embroidered on, it might be as simple as a color selection in the machine. For instance, I might want my burgee to be green...

My window AC unit is installed in the window from inside the cabin. I don't need to go on the bow for anything related to getting the AC setup.

I have a fan that hangs in the berth opening that blows the air from the cabin into the berth.

I go with the window AC option. My unmodified 5K BTU will run on a Honda 1000 generator. Since I only use the AC part time, having it removable is nice. I can leave it home when I don't need it. Being in FL might be a different story. Disadvantage with the window unit is you can't really drive...

They must have been going downhill with a tailwind.

I think that that factory swim steps are pretty nice and they are sturdy. My boat came with one and I added another OEM step on the other side.

I have a complete Victron 602 or 612 (can't remember the model) system I'll let you have for a good price. PM me if you are interested. Note that I am travelling on business right now and won't be able to ship this to anyone for the next two weeks.

Difference between the 22 cruiser and the Venture 23 is that the 22 cruiser has the height just over the center aisle. You can get the standard or high top version. But the difference is the height in the center. The Venture has a higher roof all the way across (there is no raised center...

I have one of the previous burgees. However, I just went out of town for 2 weeks. I can get you pictures of it when I get home if no one responds before then.

I would make sure that they are securely tied down. Rough seas could toss them around pretty good.

I guess it depends on what you intend to do with it and how often you're going to use it. I have an Intex Mariner 3 dinghy. It is nicer than you might think, does the job nicely, and can carry a large load. It weighs around 40#. However, while my example is in excellent shape after many years...

Guess it depends on where you are. I got stopped by the marine police because my wake rocked a boat tied to a dock too much. I was going about 5 mph at the time.

If the Coast Guard is nearby call them up, tell them what happened, and say you are a concerned boater and that maybe a wellness check might be order.

If you are anchored out in remote locations, the requirement for an enclosure may be reduced. We used to put the porta potti in the cockpit for most uses and really didn't worry about an enclosure. Of course, we did not use it like that when we were in places like marinas. One example given in...
