The website librivox.org has audio versions of out of copyright books, all free. Reading is done by volunteers. You can download books in several formats including MP3. I've just finished listening to "The Riddle of the Sands" by Erskine Childers. For those of us with a sailing background...

What is the simplest portapotti setup that meets the Ontario regs? There are portapotti models which can be held down by brackets (counts as permanent installation) but they would have to be attached to a deck fill (or empty, hahah) at least. If the setup was just for a couple of days use, how...

"Maybe we could build a drug running boat as a group project?" Joe: I think you just made it to some list (or lists) :sad

Not quite sure what the problem is. They look perfectly legit and here is their phone number and address from the web site. http://www.gpsonsale.com/contact-info.htm

Perhaps it is bad taste to disseminate this but it's about safety too. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldne ... orror.html

I've already 'thanked" Marc by driving to FL from PA to buy a new boat. I've shamelessly picked Les's brains by email and profited hugely from his down to earth and practical advice on the EQ web site. Thank you again Les. I haven't directly communicated with Matt but I've learned a lot, of...

I wrote "solved" but it's a bit of an exaggeration. Water does drain out but possibly slower than it gets in (from rain, usually) so stuff can get wet. What really did solve 95% of the problem is the sloping canvas back I had made. This keeps the cockpit dry when I'm away from the boat. The...

For the record, my 2008 TomCat has never had any water intrusion problem, except for the fishboxes. I solved that one by a drain in the floor of each fishbox, with short plastic pipes terminated near to the bilge pumps. Roy

You could always buy my 2008 TomCat. Yours for <$80k, Airhead included for FREE!!

My info is completely unscientific and based on 'research' I did before buying an expensive cooler. I decided that coolers are a place where the law of diminishing returns operates very well, even though the published tests do not seem to resemble real world use all that well (e.g. put a maximal...

Just got back from a 2200mi round trip to Wefings and Marc Grove to pick up my new Arima Sea Hunter. I want to add my voice to the near universal chorus of appreciation for Marc's amazing dedication to customer service and satisfaction. So many things to attend to on a new boat - all performed...

wannaboat: I wonder why you wish to deal with a far away canvas person? There are lots and lots of canvas outfits near you in Md and Va who will come and measure the boat and make your cover. Most marinas can put you in contact with canvas people. I can't say if they would be cheaper but you...

ha ha Joe: 3 x 90 = 270 or is this a radar thing?

I don't have a specific brand name but I suggest getting one with several power settings. Mine has 600w, 900w, and 1500w settings. 600w is useful inside the berth with the curtain drawn across. 900w runs with a 1000w Honda generator (although I use the Wallas at anchor) and 1500w can be run with...

I'm not sure if you are talking about a full/partial boat cover or just a bimini. I have a sloping cover over the cockpit, Sunbrella but not sure of the color - to the eye it is gray but it is made of alternating black and gray threads. At my end of the bay there is a fair amount of particulate...

boat now called Levitation??

and it probably won't be long before it's a nice shade of gray (or worse) depending on the material.....

Should have waited a couple of years before buying my boat :)

Matt G. I was not trying to offend anybody with my remarks, merely trying to point out that not all businessmen are paragons of virtue. I have absolutely no knowledge of seasport or their business. By all accounts they make excellent boats and I'm sure they will continue to do so. They may even...
