    Calculating Variation on AutoPilot

    Thank you. So the easy way to view is that if the Agonic line is West of me, I add the degrees, if the Agonic line is East of me, I deduct the degrees. Does that make sense?

    Calculating Variation on AutoPilot

    That is a great saying thanks. However, I still am not clear, does "East is least" mean it is east of me, or I am east of it? On the chart below, I have circled my location for perspective.

    Calculating Variation on AutoPilot

    Thank you. So would I not be inputed -9 degrees since "Magnetic North" is "West" of me?

    Inflatable Lift Preserver - Pro's, Cons, Purchasing Suggestions

    We all wear Mustang auto inflatable. We wear them in pouring rain and never had an issue. The big benefit I see with the is we wear them way more often since they are just way more mobile. That alone makes them worth it.

    I was up at the boat working on it today while in heated storage. I am plugged into the 110v with my 15a adapter and for some reason the batteries went low even though I had my converter switch on and the battery charger is powered on and says charging (see pic). However, there is no fan or...

    So You're Thinking About Tearing Up Your Cabin Carpet?

    I just peeled mine up a few weeks ago. It was easy. We used a scraper attachment on an oscillating tool. One guy peeled back the carpet while the other slid the tool back and forth. The key was to let the tool do the work. The entire carpet was up in a couple hours. New flooring is almost done.

    Deck Hatch Gasket?

    I am in the midst of re-bedding my deck hatches just as general maintenance. There was a black gasket between the deck and the frame of the hatch that I have removed and will need to replace. I am a little confused as it seems some people use a good caulking/sealant instead. When I look around...
