Fortunately, we're all pretty much old enough to get it.

If you know anyone turning 21 today, suggest they buy a mega millions ticket.

I'll be driving my truck down to New Bern in March to pick up my new boat. Does anyone know of a service in that area that will transport my truck back to CT for me so I don't have to bring an extra driver along?

Or at least an "E" for Effort!

Thanks, guys. I spent quite a bit of time bending Tony's ear. He's quite knowledgeable and helpful. Spent the better part of today finishing up pulling the 2nd 6v92ta aftercooler on the old boat. Doing the heat exchangers at the same time. I want to be sure she's running right in the...

Well, I had to do something to improve 2020. I closed on my "new" '86 45C with QSM11's yesterday. Its going to be a long winter waiting to take a boat ride north in April. Happy New Year everyone!

$1000. Good as new. Been on the boat for 2 seasons. I'm switching to rope and chain rode. Best price at Defenders is $1,595. See: https://www.defender.com/product.jsp?id=713423 Heavy. Pick up only in central CT.

My favorite two are Cirrhosis of the River and Slum Chick.

So, I'm heading down to New Bern this weekend to look at a 45C. Wx calls for showers on Sat, so I will probably check her out on Sunday. I'd like the hull to be dry for the moisture meter. So, presuming I come down Fri, is there anything interesting to do there on a Sat? Oh, my wife is not...

Brand new, never used. I won this in a raffle a few years ago. It was inflated once for display then deflated and repacked in the original box. Its been in my basement ever since. $75 plus shipping. Or pick up in central CT.

Is your unit different in the DC than mine in the convertible? My controls were where the new teak piece is on the unit. I chose to relocate my FX1 elsewhere, but the circuit block with all the wiring was very accessible behind the patch.

As some of you know, I've been looking into repowering my '79 43C. I haven't given up on that, but did get a little sticker shock on a pair of QSM11s with gears coming in just shy of $140k. And that's just the iron in a crate - nothing more. So, I'm also looking for a 45 in good condition...

https://www.yachtworld.com/boats/1986/hatteras-45-convertible-3703014/ Anyone familiar with this boat? Says its repowered in 2006 with Cat C9s. Curious about performance. Says 26 cruise 32 on the pins. Seems a little high for a 585hp engine (presuming that's what it is - ad doesn't say)...

Is there a formula to determine minimum requirement for propeller shaft size? Is it simply xx horsepower, or does prop size and pitch come into play in the decision?

I received this note from my boat club. I recommend that anyone interested in safe boating in shallow water complete the survey. From my club commodore: The US Coast Guard is undertaking a survey OF PUBLIC INPUT for navigation aides in less than 12 feet of water which expires on NOV 1st. Many...
