So my marine a/c has a regular thru hull, which pulls enough venturi at about 12 kts to overpower the ppickup pump and cause the system to shut down. I bought a Groco SC1000 thruhull strainer to scoop water into the water pickup and hopefully allow a/c use at planning speeds. Side benefit...

I read the tomcats do not sneeze. Perhaps that is with experienced masters at the helm... which I am not - with the vessel. I would like some clarification on a few points from the true masters. What seas can you run fast and enjoy the air cushion? 2 ft at 4 secs??? more? less? I was...

tomorrow is my son's last day the he is legally required to wear life jacket in TX. Seems like a huge day to me, but sounds like he would rather wait a day and roll jacket free. I am hoping to drag him out fishing with a vest and mark the date properly. We will see... he said he is willing...

I have read most of the stuff and was lucky my vessle can with permatrims on the twin 40's. Man that was sweet, not only could I smooth it out by stuffing the nose in but also level things out when I had an uneven load. Now after a repower I am down to a single 115 and put about 50 hrs on...

I am wanting to keep the temperature down inside the cabin when locked up and not in use. Mainly as I am hoping to minimize degradation to the power station that runs my mini a/c. If I can keep the inside below 104 I could even charge but that is not critical. I am considering putting in a...

Please help! I have been using my Dory to teach kiteboarding and have been LOVING it!!! except anchoring... I was trying to anchor to hold position and setup the kite off the stern. However the vessel sails back and forth soo much that she would pull the anchor and drift down on the kite...

Well my '04 22 commuter has the rub rail rivots failing. Has anyone ever thought of/done a classic rope rub rail? Anyone who has done the rub rail care to chime in? I have read up the great threads showing others projects to re-attach the original. All ideas/wisdom welcome. Thanks in...

I just posted a start to finish montage of me and my son making racks for our 22 in my album. Racks are listed in the accessories marketplace for sale if you like them.

hoping to get an album and post some picts. After first summer with our 22 commuter we did a good job of filling the freezer and are still eating fish usually weekly. I am holding off on the full 2019 fish haul report for now hoping to do it proper with photos.

I would like to upload photos/have an album. I read a few posts that indicated I should request a photo album. If this is correct then I am requesting, please. If not is there an instructional???

Decided to name the boat C Sniper, luckily was never named so I didn't have to do the ceremony... Is it possible for admin, oh kind and great sir, to change my name to C Sniper?

My bilge pump was running every 20 mins ish on my third run out. We had wind that pushed us sideways to the swell (moored up) and we were rocking alot. Could not see any place water was coming in but didn't look super hard. Should have checked the live well. Pump was out so we were dumping...

I searched "offshore" and read everything. As expected most posts were west coast related. I read somewhere the other day that a poster suggested period should be double the swell (dont think it was here tho). Anyway I am just getting going on some offshore fishing missions out into GOM, 3 so...

Hello all, I confess to lurking for months now. Finally jumping in. I live on south padre island and just put a deposit down on a 22. It was custom order with bench seating instead of dinette and galley. I plan to pick it up next weekend. I intend to do some state water chartering and...
