Very Sweet! And thanks for the specs! We have a lift so I think.well have plenty of room even with the RIB on it. And love your illumination and that white canvas up on the bridge. Well done!
Hey I see you have a Nouveriana 360. We're just starting the hunt for our RIB. How long is your 360? We found a 11 ft Nouveriana with a 30 hp 4 stroke Yamaha and seems like the right length. I'm a little concerned about putting one that hangs over too much for docking purposes
Actually we're planning on going to Oyster Bay and anchoring with some other boats and taking the ding to St. Armands for dinner and music and spending the night at anchor. If we get to Longboat we'll have a look and take some pics.
Thanks everyone. I downloaded Windy, Predict Wind and Dark Sky today and are going to test them out this weekend on a run from Venice to Longboat Key. I have the NOAA apps but Windy and Dark Sky sure have some cool features. I'm more concerned with what's actually happening around my vessel...

Just brought our 440 DA over from Boca Raton thru Lake O to our home on Siesta Key for the first time and want to schedule a 4 day-ish trip to the Keys (I think Marathon and work our way back up to the upper Keys). Probably going over the weekend of Aug 22-25. Have lots of boating experience...
I have a 2005 420DA (420 hrs.) and Cummins has diagnosed a turbo seal failure and recommends replacement of the turbocharger. Noticed smoke from the blow-by tube and checked crack case pressure at 86 in. water (10 times the spec) but no excessive smoke from exhaust or loss of power. Does this...
