    Chesapeake Bay trip - advice requested

    Thanks Ryan, I will definitely review those resources. I am looking at the ACR Aqualink View (this is a PLB, not an EPIRB). I am new to these devices; however, I believe the PLB will be effective as long as I affix to my person/lifejacket. Are there strong reasons to consider an EPIRB...

    do you run the engine blower all the time ?

    I am concerned after reading through this thread... worried that I have perhaps not been careful enough. I am diligent about running the blower for 5 minutes before starting the engine every time; however, must admit I do not run the blower once I am out of the marina even at slower speeds.

    280 engine questions

    Starting third season with my 2007 and love it. I believe the pros/cons were covered thoroughly in another thread. I cruise at 28 mph at around 15GPH if I remember correctly.
