New in box. First $150 takes it.

Trying to plan a trip to the Bahamas between Christmas and New Years. We have been to Abacos several times and love it. We are thinking a bit further south this year with The Exumas as our destination. Any advice on where to stay? Not looking for nightlife but we will want decent...

I have a nice polished stainless adjustable spreader (48" long with several different adjustments for the lift point) that needs a new home. Came with my prior boat and was used for an 14' Novurania RIB weighing about 1000#. I doubt you could acquire a new one for less than $1,000. Make me an...

Southwest Airlines has recently started non-stop flights from New Orleans to Key West at reasonable prices and I am thinking of moving my boat down there for the winter/spring. Having never been to Key West I know virtually nothing about where to stay. It is my understanding, from reading this...

I recently saw a 48YF near my marina and am curious, is the 48 YF a 43 DC with added cockpit (ala 53 Classic / 58 YF) or a completely different hull? Either way, a cool looking old boat.

I have been noticing a sort of sand textured substance around my engine room. It appears as if there was some sort of external filter material in the air intake vents that has mostly disintegrated. Has anyone else experienced this issue and what/how to fix or replace what was there?

Replacement of the forward A/C system is moving apace. The new unit has been ordered from Aqua Air. A "while you're at it" includes building and new distribution manifold and associated hoses. Any recommendations on replacement hoses would be appreciated. System will be plumbed for easy...

While trying to plan the route for my new a/c hoses I have(surprise surprise) discovered a new issue. The vent line for my holding tank has collapsed in the loop before the thru-hull. Now I understand why it has been near impossible to pump out my holding tank. Replacing the entire length...

So the original Lunair unit for the forward stateroom has bitten the dust (bad compressor). Boatyard wants me to replace the whole unit to the tune of about $3k. I am hesitant to go away from the original setup but am considering a self contained unit as the cost is substantially lower. I...

If this is in halfway decent condition it is unbelievably cheap. http://www.yachtworld.com/core/listing/boatMergedDetails.jsp?boat_id=2596099&ybw=&units=Feet&currency=USD&access=Public&listing_id=5224&url=

Been doing spring cleaning in anticipation of summer cruising and trying to generally de-clutter my boat. I carry a 5 drawer tool chest with enough stuff to build a battleship. Truth is I am not leaving the country and not really into, or really qualified, turning wrenches anymore. Thinking...

I need to replace the male and female ends on my shore power cable 50A. Any experience or advice on doing the job myself. Also, any preference on make of the replacement parts (Marinco vs Hubbel etc.)? Thanks

Furuno NAVnet vx2 plotter 6' 6kw Open Array GP-320 GPS Receiver All associated cable Units are in good condition. Lightly used (don't know hours but my engines only show about 1150 hours). Asking $2,000 plus shipping from New Orleans. Send PM here or email me at ghop816@gmail.com if...

I have someone lined up to clean and paint the 8-71s in my 58YF. He prefers to brush and, from what I can tell, it probably makes sense. Want to go with bright white. Anybody have any recomendations for which paint? Thanks, Greg

I have been reading and re-reading posts lately concerning interior deck covering. I have finally decided to go with carpet in the living areas and Lonseal in the Heads/Galley areas. My boat presently has carpet on the stairs and that seems to be the place that gets worn and dirty. Has anyone...

Hubbell Y adapter 50A 250v male to 2 30A 125v female. Never used by me and don't look like they have been used much at all. Best I can tell the sell for somewhere aroung $200 new. How about $100? Thanks for looking, Greg

I have been thinking about adding some lighting to my engine room. Originally was going to add additional a/c flourescent but a friend pointed out when you really need lights it will probably be because the generator is down. So I lean to additional 24v dc. Has anyone tried LEDs in the engine...

I have recently discovered small holes in both the shower sump discharge hose and the forward bilge pump discharge hose. Both hoses are the grey corrugated hose. These are the leaks I "know" about. What are the pro/con arguments for repair vs replace? I lean toward replace. What material...

Anyone know of a good AC tech in the Pensacola area? Getting way hot here and need to make sure all systems are working as well as possible. Thanks, Greg
