    Great day on the water

    Yesterday was a great day on the water - aren't they all? I decided on a whim to go out crabbing. (I had a taste for some hot steamed crabs). Man, everybody and their brother went out yesterday...probably something to do with the Holiday. Dobbins island in the Magothy had more than the usual...

    McKee 14' 'hump'

    I have '73 14' McKee Craft with a 35 hp Merc on the back which I acquired earlier this season. I've been enjoying the heck outta this boat. The hull is in good shape except for one thing. Just forward of the transom gussets, the floor has a hump in it. Everyone says this is no big deal. It...

    Compass Advice

    Okay, the compass on my Searay spins like I'm in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle. I want to replace it but I don't want to spend a fortune. Is it unreasonable to expect that I can a decent compass for under $100 ? Recommendations?

    Electrical Pulsing

    My Searay developed an electrical issue Friday. I first lost the depth sounder, then the stereo, then the GPS. The GPS plugs into a cigarette lighter and has a green LED to indicate power. I noticed it is blinking on and off relatively slowly and rythmatically. Of course you have to hold the...
