You recommended Henry Pickersgill to me yesterday. Why aren't you using him? Have you used him before? Thanks, -G

Anyone looked at all three of these boats and have thoughts to share? Thanks! -G

Say I anchor the boat and dinghy into a restaurant. The anchor starts dragging. Any electronics that can detect the drag AND call my cellphone or text me? Thanks!

Thanks for all of the responses. I have had the boat for three years and this didn't start happening until about a month ago. Odd that it happens after I run the boat and stop it. Maybe something on the bottom but also wondering if there is a short somewhere.

Greetings, I am getting some weird behavior with my depthfinder. When we head out for an outing it works fine the entire trip out. Then we will anchor or dock somewhere for some time. When I fire everything back up to head home, the depthfinder no longer works, just reading as dashes in the...

Had more of the same on the trip home. Alarming every couple of minutes and trim was stable. Idling was not steady so I suspected IAC issues. Searching around here after return makes me think it is the IAC on the starboard engine. Ordered a replacement. If turns out to fix the problem, I...

The port drive's trim alarm seems to keep coming on every couple of minutes or so while cruising. I think it is the trim alarm because the audible alarm beeps and then the port engine digital display shows the trim setting momentarily. The setting itself seems to drift from 0 to 1. The analog...

Thanks for the great info. Recalling looking at the box around the heater, all of the connections seemed secure and none of them seemed to be leaking. It actually looked like water was coming out the bottom of the box. Is it possible something inside has cracked and is leaking? Also, I saw...

When the starboard engine is running, water is quickly filling the bilge and the pump is coming on about every 20 seconds. It is a pretty significant flow, I would guess around a gallon a minute. This doesn't appear to be happening when just the port engine is running. When both engines are...

Most definitely -- I am putting in a call tomorrow and will be checking on it as well. I did a LOT of observing and it only happens when the engines are running. Is it possibly related to the cooling system or the the exhaust system? I'm certainly not expecting to fix this myself but I am...

Dropped the mufflers in but the port engine is still making that swooshing sound. Now the bilge pump is coming on all of the time (every 30 secs) when the engine is running and I can see water bubbling at the back of the engine compartment. This does NOT happen when the engines are off. Could...
