So with all of the work going on with the north jetty of Barnegat Inlet, it looks like using that inlet this summer will be difficult at best. I know it's single file, no passing and no wake all the way through. When that inlet gets a little rough, trying to get through it at idle speed could...

My boat is powered by pair of Volvo D12´s. I use the boat in New Jersey and the surrounding area in the summer and down in south west Florida in the winter. So the boat is used year round. I am on top of all the maintenance and do everything at or before the specified number of hours. I use...

I'm having new exhaust elbows made for both of my engines. They should be ready on about a week or so. Of course, the new elbows will be perfectly machined and will have brand new stainless steel flanges to mate with the exhaust output off of the turbo. When I removed the old elbows, there...

The amount of floating debris out in Barnegat Bay is insane. It definitely makes you wonder what is under the water that you can't see. I was recently talking to someone that I know in Florida. We were talking about storms and damage. When I mentioned that I'm concerned about what debris is...

My younger daughter got engaged! And her fiance just closed on a house. How exciting!!!

So the trip north is getting started a little later this year than usual. I usually like to leave around May 10th or so. My younger daughter graduated college on May 11, and my older daughter decided that she wanted to take a vacation with my wife and I to our Florida house the week of May 12...

I will be moving my boat back north this year beginning around May 22 or so. A bit of a late start for me as I usually like to leave Florida in early May to head north. My plan was to cut across the Okeechobee Water Way on day one in order to make it from my place in Punta Gorda on the west...

I have a used Northstar 952X color chartplotter for sale. Unit operates perfectly. It was flush mounted so I do not have the bracket or knobs. I have the GPS antenna, and about 1' of the power cable which gives you the connector and more than enough wire to splice. I also have chart chips...

So I'm on my friend's 1999 400 Sundancer. I go down in the salon and it seems to be quite large compared to my salon (2000 410 Sundancer - Basically the same boat). I then realize that he doesn't have the table down there. So I ask him does he always travel without the table? Must be a pain...

OK Folks, Here's a cool game. The rules are simple. I'm going to start by posting the name of a song title and artist. The goal of the next person to post is to come up with a song title that uses a word from the previously posted song. Three or four word titles are best. You must have an...

Here is a nice little upgrade that I did in my salon. The television was moves, and I created a liquor cabinet in its place. The old CRT was removed and replaced with a flat panel LCD. The flat panel is installed above the mirror at the wall between the salon and the forward state room. Others...

As an electronic upgrade, I installed a floscan system. The install took me about 6 hours total and was done over a period of about a week, a little here and a little there. The modules that the flow meters wire into are NMEA2000 so the tie into my electronics on board was simple. This is a...

I wonder if anyone has seen this in the past. I own a year 2000 410 Sundancer. At rest, the boat seems to sit lower in the bow than it should. To me it seems like the stern should be about two inches deeper in the water which if pivoted from the center, would bring the bow up by about two...
