so i was typing a long new thread and somehow lost it. before it disapeared there was numerous time that i saw "autosave" pop up in the bottom. any chance my post is still floating around somewhere? suggesstions on how to find it?
seems i have lost the cap to the stern light plug, Can anyone tell me where i can find the cap only with out buying the whole unit? I have looked around at hardware store and plumbing places but no luck

We just closed the deal on a recreational property up North (near North Bay) Here is a shot of where she will rest for most of her summers. The boat there now is the current owners and with my 32" draft I will need to extend the dock out a few more feet to ensure no "Rock meets Prop" stories...
So, I am getting ready for our annual trip down to the North Captiva area on the gulf. Most (99%) of our boating will be done in the sound in relativly shallow waters. I have never had tow insurance while I was down there in the past but started thinking a bit more about it this year.
Is this...
Heading back down to North Captiva again for a couple of weeks. I did not get a chance to hook up with PineIslandFred last time I was down but hoping the water levels are up this year and I can get around a little better. Anyone else down there that time of year?
Fred, I am planing on trying...
I never really thought of it to be honest. I guess I thought it just went on older boats with a different finish. I have an 07 with a gelcoat finish and this is my first year with her at a slip. Should I have had the bottom painted?? I never had a problem with it before but it was only in the...
The post about the water proof cover reminded me of a questions I wanted to ask. Although i have vents in my cover I ge a bit of condensation trapped and I am concerned bout mildew.
I would like to instal a little fan that could run off a little solar panel, could put the panel on the cover...
Might be a dumb question but.. I will be in fl in Jan and will be leaving the boat at a slip. I have rented boats down here before but never really had to worry about the tide as I never tied up at anyone place for long. I am used to just tying off to a cleat and walking away. Now I have...
Quick question all, I am looking to pick up some decent charts (online) for the gulf side of Fl. the captiva and pine island sound area to be exact. thanks

I was having some double clunks when I went into drive as well as the odd stall switching from forward to reverse and sometimes sticking in reverse. My local dealer suggested a water test and possibly a set up?? anyway out we went and one of the things that i had mentioned is that my tach at...
I dropped my boat off at the shop for the smart tab installation. they called me today to ask me where i want them installed.. I thought it was a foolish question till i got there. The tabs are the ST1290 80 lb. the problem is the flat portion of the transom is only about 8 to 12". Where you...
I know its a bit early for this and I may be in the wrong forum, but!,
How many of you have to winterize your boat then unwinterize in order to take it south and then rewinterize it again before you go home?
we are heading to Fl in January and live in ontario.

Ok, If you have been radioed and someone is in distress and you decide to go help them what should you do? I have a 100' ski rope is that enough if I need to be towed in?
where do you attach the ropes? to the bow eye of the towee and the trailer tie-downs on the stern?
I recently was asked by...
So, My wife and I just spent a few days traveling in our boat. It's not a cuddy but we made it work. It was great!
anyway we hope to someday retire and spend most of our time boating in the warmer climates. (inter coastal waterways mostly).
ps I didn't just decide this this weekend, its...
