  4. 58LRC - makes 1st 1000 mile trip (as newer owners)

    We just returned from a nice 31 day, 1000 mile trip from SW Florida to the Exumas, Eleuthera and the Abacos. This is our 1st medium distance trip with the LRC and was a great shakedown cruise. We purchased "Katerina" about 1.5 years ago and have been working on ever since. She was definitely...

  5. Do you tip - at the fuel dock on delivery?

    I'd like ask the group for feedback on tipping at the fuel dock or when getting bulk fuel delivered. In the case of the fuel dock: No special "extra" services, just looping two lines around a piling and handing you the fuel pump, maybe handing the pump-out nozzle. Does size of the boat or how...

  10. Kudos to ICOM

    In case anyone else has a similar issue... My ICOM M34 handheld got to where it would only pick up one weather channel, and then only if squelch was turned all the way off. It didn't seem to send or receive on any of the regular channels. This was pretty much an all-of-a-sudden thing. Thought it...

Lauderdale, and they said it was probably just a bad oil level switch. Says I just drop the oil reservoir and replace the switch. I...

  16. Stainless steel cleaner

    Has anyone tried the product named Spotless Stainless? Supposed to brush it on, wait, then rinse off. Wondering if it works as well as the products that are a little more elbow-grease-intensive.

    I have a U-Line ice maker / frig in the salon, and the automatic ice maker part works fine, but it looks like there is some crud in the ice cubes that I can't figure out how to get rid of. Appears to be from having it sit for who knows how long, but I can't see a way to get the ice making tray out...

  19. Typical Listing Agreement Term

    We're planning to put Magic Carpet on the market and have so far, spoken to only one broker. Their standard listing agreement calls for a 12 month term. That seems excessive to me. Is this the normal term? Would I be out of line to insist on six months max?

  20. A little more teak advice please.

    Getting all the old finish stripped off in preparation for sealing with Semco. The various parts of the covering boards have some significant gaps that look like they were just filled with old varnish, or whatever finish had been used. Cracks between boards open up pretty easy, so the old finish is...
