SOUNDINGS, November issue: 63 Hatteras GT which is the fishing boat and tender to a 150 foot expedition yacht. Crossed the Atlantic on its own bottom, in convoy with the bigger boat, and refueled by it as well- Refueled while underway, which is pretty cool. Some nice photos, too.

Video on FB of an older Hatt convertible, looks like 70s or 80s, burning at the dock. Thought to be from the dock cord. Looks like a total loss.

Fawcett Marine in Annapolis is having a sale on Maxwell windlasses- ends 8/23. Worth checking out if you wee planning to buy one anyway and hadn't got around to it yet. I have no connection with them other than being a loyal customer of theirs.

Love this one in particular.

Over the years I've owned my 36 convertible, we've removed most of the teak trim that the boat came with. If you look at the brochure photos, there was quite a bit of exterior teak on the aft bulkhead, mostly gone now. All the ladder treads were also teak, now replaced with stainless. What is...

Pray for us.

I installed the stainless Hatteras (oldstyle) nameplates I got from Mike, today. Photos coming. They are beautifully made, they fit perfectly, and they look a treat. It occurred to me that they will be the last set of them I will need. I'll save the plastic ones, which I was replacing not quite...

Yeah, no kidding, you little rodent.

"We are looking for a 17-18ft RIB, probably 50HP or more. We would like aluminum body, but it isn't something concrete. A trailer with it would be awesome, but not required. Trying to keep is around $16-18k." My goddaughter and her sailing partner (Arielle and David, Hein-Darrow Sailing) are...

We just had a windstorm here in MD, and our power was out for four days. Some houses and communities are STILL out. A few years ago, I installed a NL 16kW industrial genset; it will easily run all the loads I need inc the AC in the summer. The only problem I've had with it is that it always...

This shade has two poles that extend from the back of the cabin top deck and keep it taut. It was worked well for 15 years. the canvas part has been done over at least once.

Defender Marine in CT is running a special where they have combined with Active Captain to offer one item per week. I must be on their email list, because it arrived this evening. This week's special was Crewsaver automatic or manual life vests, respectively $35 and $39. It's a little...

The first mistake was going to the Annapolis boat show. (I won't even think about how much financial damage I would do to myself if I went to FLIBS) I got to admire the Hatteras 45, which is a lovely boat and probably very fast with two big Caterpillars in there. I think they said 45 kts. No...

Rumor has it that one of these may be at the Annapolis show next week. Hatteras Yachts does not appear to have a presence at the show- they haven't for a few years, now- but I looked carefully through the program and it seems one of the new 45s may be on Dock B. It would be nice. They used to...

Those of you with time on your hands and nothing to do with it, which describes a few of us, might want to look at Bluewater Yachts site and view the Tiffany Yacht convertible they have listed for sale, called "Hyltonian" Words fail me (actually they don't, but I suspect far more entertaining...

My boat has the original Kana Hi-Styles running lights (P & S, plus a Wilcox anchor/steaming light, plus a Perko stern light. Are LED replacements CG legal for these lamps, and does anyone know which LED bulbs are the ones to get, before I start taking everything apart?
