    was wondering if anyone out there had any android apps that they find useful. I used to have a tide chart app on the iphone but i've made the switch over and that's the first thing i'm searching for.

    safe sea conditions

    so the weather is not really cooperating this weekend - winds 14 - 19 knots and seas 3 - 5 feet... I'm curious what everyone considers 'acceptable' to go out in? I haven't really built up my frame of reference yet ...

    does this sound right?

    I had an issue with my steaming light recently and someone told me to just wire it up so that it burned both forward and aft as if it were an anchor light and not burn the existing stern light.

    Tale of two mechanics

    ok – I could use some experienced opinions here… so i took possession of my boat (360) a little over a month ago. on the sea trial everything was fine - we noted a sound around the stbd engine so we did oil samples from the transmission that came back clean. The day I was moving it, the stbd...

    360 it is!

    well, based on the great feedback here, we are now under contract for a 360! Was wondering if anyone has ever documented a boat online themselves or if this is not a recommended practice. I heard a doc agent will cost around $400 and doing it online might be $75... Anyone have any thoughts...

    SmartCraft Display fouled

    anyone ever have an issue with the smartcraft display going bad? Just did a survey on a 360 and half of the display is unreadable. Just wondering if it's an item that's easy (read cheap) to fix or should i put it on the punch list - which is pretty short anyway. Thanks as always

    Purchase of a 340 vs 360

    Hello, all! First, thanks to all the experienced guys out there willing to take the time to share your thoughts on just about any subject you can think of! :thumbsup: Looking to get our first boat and had settled on a 2003 340 when we found a 2003 360 for almost the same $$ (looked at it -...
