I have a Garmin Nuvi GPS in my car. The touch screen is ‘crack cocaine’ type addicting. A few have touch screen marine units now. My guess is in a few years the touch screen will be dominate in marine units.

I agree with Henry. No return fuel line.

Some people have multiple user names?

I just got my latest Overtons magazine. They have a dive master brand 2 piece 3mm neoprene wetsuit, separate farmer johns and jacket for $99/set. I have done cold water scuba diving with this exact wetsuit plus hood, boots and insulated gloves. Again, its no survival suit but when combined...

Just an update, we are at the twilight of our second summer. We have taken our boat to the navigational limits on the Lake Winnebago chain of lakes. We have gone as far in all directions as you can go without putting the boat in very high danger of hitting bottom. We even went too far and it...

Here is an old wise tale that seems to be a reasonable estimate of (state) miles per gallon. This assumes you plane out, trim up, run at reasonable a speed, not plow all day and not going wide open, not in a storm and are using gas, not diesel. Take 12,000 (10,200 if nautical miles)...

I just discovered this forum, joined and wish to say "Thank you" to all the posters for the information you so graciously share. We purchased a 1998 Sea Ray 240 Sundancer in March of this year and have it in a harbor in Oshkosh WI. The first weekend we launched, April 16th, 2005 was...
