    How old is too old (to operate a boat)?

    Garmin G2 vs. Mapsource

    I really like being able to view my charts on my PC. I can plan routes etc. and then program them on my unit. Is this type of functionality still available with the new G2? It seems like you can only buy data cards. Am I missing something? THANKS, Hal

    310DA/330DA : 1990-1994 vs. 1995-1999

    Dominic, Thanks for the concise summary of differences. You state : "newer model will have 1 1/2" shafts as opposed to 1 1/4" shafts" starting with which model year are the 1 1/2" shafts standard? "newer model will have dripless shaft seals. older model will have to be packed "...

    310DA/330DA : 1990-1994 vs. 1995-1999

    Going to look at one of each on Wednesday. A 1991 310DA and a 1996 330DA. Hopefully I will decide which vintage to pursue and subsequently narrow down my search. I know I will want both a survey and a sea trail. Other than that anything specific I should try to focus on at first look...

    Boat Buying - Off Season

    Thanks Cruisn, Did you actually purchase the boat in Dec. or simply put a down payment. Was the purchase price, or down payment, held in escrow pending the sea trial? .Hal

    Boat Buying - Off Season

    Here in Michigan everything is sort of tucked in for "w". Obviously I would not want to buy a previously enjoyed vessel without both a survey and a sea trial. Since I can't trial until spring how would I present an offer? I can think of two options. - Offer an escrowed deposit with a...
