http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190567082246&ssPageName=ADME:B:EF:MOTORS:1123 Any thoughts? Seems like if you got this thing for less than asking (I hear maybe half?) that maybe you could part it out and make some dough...

I enjoy Bob Marley. But 14 hours of the same cd is too much. my dock neighbor left his music on so loud i can hear it in my stateroom. i dont think he is there, and i haven't met him yet (new guy)... wwyd?

Yesterday, we had a couple of intense thunderstorms pass us by. We were lucky and didn't have to button up while anchored out on the river enjoying a great summer holiday Monday (for us North-siders). These storms can spring up quickly, and I'm glad to have Sirius Weather running on my boat to...

I expect this post will generate some good discussion. This weekend, we had a visitor at our marina on Friday night. A 92' Lazarro docked around 9pm. We were out on the river having dinner and arrived later about 10:30pm. After we docked, our dockmates told us that this vessel came...

OK, I admit I'm an idiot. After not seeing the boat for 9 months (it has been in the dealer's showroom since October), we splashed her yesterday. The radar unit and tv antenna had to be removed for transport, so I reinstalled them today. Being impatient, excited, and just plain dumb, I...

Anyone have a game camera? I'd like to get one to take pictures of the numerous deer, turkeys, and coyotes on our land. Any suggestions for make / model?

We didn't get the 8 feet of snow that we were told to expect, but we did get 4 or 5 inches with a half inch of ice on top. Here's my fun this morning. It takes a little while for the action to start... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ltsMYpn3Zk One frame every half second from our little...

Didn't see this posted elsewhere here. I saw the boat anchored under the Peace Bridge this morning: http://www.wivb.com/dpp/news/buffalo/Three-people-rescued-from-sinking-boat

I just returned home with my family after a week in St. Kitts. I have a customer there and have been lucky to have been able to visit this wonderful under-appreciated island nation many times. Every time I'm there I spend as much time as I can snorkeling. I'm just an amateur, but am learning...

I know, I know. Bring on the flames. But... I've enjoyed sailing, but have not owned my own sailboat. I am drawn to the idea of making long passages under the power and quiet of sail. What boater doesn't get inspired by CSN's "Southern Cross"? (Jimmy Buffet's version is ok too) So, am...

I bought my wife a Kodak Zx3 HD Waterproof Digital Video Camera, and it really has turned out to be a great little camera. Here are some pictures of our journey to Port Colborne, ON yesterday. Lake Erie was enjoying a little wind, and the waves were between 2-4 feet, with occasional 5 footers...

We've had some great weather lately, and so far I'm up to 70 hours on the engines this year, and about 60 on the generator. Let's hope August is as nice! Thought I'd share some photos of the summer so far: We cruised to Port Colborne (southern terminus of the Welland Canal) and stayed...

Anyone here change the raw water pump impeller on a 7.0 BCGB? I lost water flow yesterday, and thought I had toasted my impeller. It turns out I had a plastic bag stuck in the through-hull grates, which was dislodged on the cruise back home. Prior to starting to replace the impeller I...

About a month or so ago I changed the water pump impeller and water separating fuel filter on my starboard engine. Today, I attacked the port side. I had wanted to get to it earlier but my schedule just didn't allow it. I'm pleased to say that although I had to remove the water muffler (it...

I'm having trouble getting the right collection of NMEA output to my SC5000. I found this article but still don't have the correct speed data outputting from my C80 to my SC5000...

Why are pictures with boats in them, or pictures taken from boats so much more interesting to most of us? First off, I followed the instructions here at CSR and made myself a set of Dom's Dinghy Davits. Thanks to Dom and everyone else who contributed to these great posts. I cheaped out and...

I got a Spot2 for Fathers Day. If you have one, how are you using it? What are your experiences like? Is the Google tracking any good?

I used Hampton's excellent walkthrough and changed my starboard impeller today, along with the water separating filter. It took about an hour, and the iPad was a handy reference tool. While I had the serpentine belt off, I noticed a spot where some rubber had degraded a bit. I've searched...
