    Buying a boat slip in Tampa Bay area

    Looking to buy a deeded boat slip somewhere in the area for future use. Around 50' long by 18'+ wide and of course deep. Looked at Longboat Moorings which is nice but not really for us. But may circle back to this. Finding that where I know there are dockominiums it is hard to locate owners or...

    Rolling over Detroit's

    My boat has been sitting unused since January 2nd. The worse wear on pleasure craft engines is non use. We generally use our boat every week or 2 so I believe this keeps internal corrosion wear to a minimum. Due to work and weather we have had bigger gaps this winter. Ran it at the dock high...

    Taking out 1" pitch

    46 is scheduled for haul out in March. Going to take 1" pitch out of props at that time. Lighten the load on engines (that do reach full RPM) and maybe transom soot stains might go away from otherwise clean burning Detroits. 34 is in yard with all out of ER and props have some dings. So while...

    Refinance

    Anyone here in the mortgage business? Trying to refi. Hate BOA. Tried a mortgage broker but besides a high closing cost also says 15Y fixed is the same or higher than 30Y fixed. So now in addition to all the crazy fico score BS I have to find a way to get a good rate soon. I believe rates are...

    Well, the rona got me

    Back in September got the rona. Not so bad. Like a cold with 2 days of fever chills. Lost sense of smell but not taste although sense of smell affects the way a lot of things taste. No biggie, I'll endure and wait it out. Well crap. Part of smell coming back is a lot of weird smells that are...

    Raw water bypass valves

    Anyone familiar with these? I have them on my 46 with 8-92's. Trying to figure out just how much or how little water should actually dump at cruise RPM.

    Madeira Beach - Treasure Island Veterans Day boat parade

    If anyone in the area is interested this year is the 25th annual parade. Anyone can be in it and it's great fun. Lot's of people out on docks watching and honoring. I get about halfway through each year before getting a little teary eyed. Great weather for it this weekend. No need to go all out...

    Question for those familiar with the Key's

    We have been there once in our old 46 Bertram, twice in our 34C, and once in the 46. We have our "go to" spot in Marathon (Banana Bay) but look to mix it up a bit on the way there. Last year we did the Galleon for a couple days and then trolled for Mahi over to Marathon. Next summer we are...

    Once again, I hate dockwa

    Trying to get a reservation at a place just south of me for one night. Even though we are in our local off season the rate is at the highest. On dockwa the coupon is for August, we are going September 2nd to 3rd. So thats a no go. Only other discount is boatus which lobby's for sunken derelict...

    Anyone have SF with under gunnel air intakes?

    We get soot on the transom and in the cockpit areas over time. Was looking into mechanical issues and tune up but decided that's probably not the issue. Engines (8-92TI's) start with no smoke and run super clean. Zero visible exhaust on plane. Clean air filters, intercoolers, and good turbo's...

    Customers

    I am "firing" customers left and right. Too old to deal with BS. We are very skilled at our trade and abilities. My guys are a Motley Crue but I keep them all doing what is correct and right. And then get called out for being wrong when those I work for drop the ball. WTF? Anyone Else? I hate...

    How to fend boat off dock in winds

    I did try to google how to build big boat fender boards, no go, so changed it to yacht, same results. My dock is a pier that faces south. Westerly winds are no problem as the 46 will hang off the dock not hitting it. Easterly winds pin it to the dock and I need a good way to fend off without...

    Morning funny

    Reading a thread you are offended by and then complaining about it is for The Hull Truth, not here. This entire thread while maybe a little risque and most/worst is clearly non offensive to adults. To those who complained please visit THT for your daily dose of lopsided PC.
