    Keeping the rain and wind off us on the water

    Yeah that one is hard so I am trying to figure out options for it. I figured keep the wind and rain off her during crappy weather and maybe a chance but not sure

    Keeping the rain and wind off us on the water

    No it does not have sail curtains on it though that could be an option to install. It is narrow ish though fits well for single handed running the majority of the time. The curtains limit me to the bow but I think they would be fine if I could just pop them down to let me jump up front around...

    Keeping the rain and wind off us on the water

    Having something made is probably the route I will have to go. I doubt I can find anything for a boat this small. Open is exactly what I wanted however I bought the boat before I got the girlfriend who hates the pain of the rain and hates getting too wet so I got to solve it if she is to come...

    Keeping the rain and wind off us on the water

    I have a 2019 Blackfin 212CC (21ft center console) with the hard top and tiny windshield. I am trying to figure out a plan for how I can keep the wind and rain off us as much as we can next year. I was thinking I could get some brackets and mount plexi glass on the hard top posts and that...

    Easier time putting on the trailer

    I have scraped my skeg a few too many times from that. I saw all the responses here yesterday saying that so I figured when pulling out yesterday to give it another shot. Scrapped it again. The 2 ramps I go to around here are apparently the perfect angle for scrapping the skeg while doing it...

    Easier time putting on the trailer

    Currently I load my Blackfin 212CC on the trailer almost always by myself as my girlfriend is not comfortable with assisting or directing me too much. I also have a small issue of sometimes missing the winch post depending on winds and current. I also have to climb out the front of the boat onto...

    Charger for on trailer or shore power

    Good to know that one works well I bought it that day as a temporary thing till I could solve it long term. What kind of plug do you mean?

    Charger for on trailer or shore power

    I don't think the batteries are **** I've had this before and they are low but likely not enough to damage them. Will have to test and see once I can charge them. Didn't know if a charging system for a slip vs a trailer would be different. Seems like just need a shore power plug and then...

    Charger for on trailer or shore power

    I have a center console that is pretty new with dual batteries. It has a selector in the bilge area. I keep it on a trailer currently and am looking at part time leaving it in a slip. Looking for a power solution to plug it in and keep the batteries fresh and good to go. I think they got down...

    Using boat with a bad trim

    Ended up using it and went amazing. Weirdly enough I have no issues with the trim now. Works perfect. I am guessing air in the lines somehow

    Using boat with a bad trim

    No oil anywhere inside or outside the boat around trim. I checked it all over and even cleaned it fresh then ran it a few times and left it twice.

    Using boat with a bad trim

    Thank you I will go check it after dinner tonight. If it were tight and not a problem would I still be safe to use the boat with the trim having a slow leak?

    Using boat with a bad trim

    I'm not really sure what that is let alone how or where to check it.

    Using boat with a bad trim

    Did a measure of the drop and my guess was wrong, way slower than I said before. At the prop was too hard to gauge so did at the trim rods and they close at about 2 inches an hour

    Using boat with a bad trim

    I have a 2019 Blackfin 212CC with the 225 merc. The trim started acting up last week with slowly going down. I put it up and locked it for the past week. I have someone coming to take a look in a few weeks but with it being the long weekend I really want to get out. I am considering going out if...

    Possibly getting a slip - what to know before saying yes

    Thanks for pointing that out, I don't think that will be an issue in my case but then again can't really hurt

    Possibly getting a slip - what to know before saying yes

    Thanks and yeah that is the goal be able to use it more and with more ease. Mooring whips seem interesting though very highly doubt they would let me install anything to the dock.

    Possibly getting a slip - what to know before saying yes

    I'll look into the high water alarms. I read your message as I was flooding it, went well. Water has to get higher than I would have expected which is good to know so I can check it more often. Seal wall or floating dock are abound the only two options around here until you get into bigger...

    Possibly getting a slip - what to know before saying yes

    I think we have different classes of boats if you are thinking 4-6 fenders lol I can fit 3 max at the normal spots though could probably install some more. Will take a look and see tonight. No need for the beach chair the guys all hang out up on the patio about 200 yards away where the bar is lol
