    Raymarine E120 Bearing vs Heading problem

    I am having a similar issue. My autopilot is tied to my E120 and sometimes the autopilot shows my compass heading very close to my actual compass. Sometimes it's 30+/- degrees off. I have been trying to locate the fluxgate with the idea of replacing it or thinking I will find it mounted next to...

    Dimmers for salon lights

    Thanks to everyone for their input. Here is what I have found so far. Only issue I have is that I am home recovering from roto-cuff surgery and until I can get the Admiral to drive me to the boat to do some measurements and checking I am not sure if the size or type is correct.

    Dimmers for salon lights

    I've not checked with Sea Ray yet but thought somebody out there would know about changing out the cabin "off" and "on" toggle switches with switches that will dim the lights. There are a few places I would like to lower the lighting level a bit. I found some in a catalog but thought I would...

    St. Pete - Salt Creek Area Questions

We enjoyed the sunset on our way there and ate at Del Frescos overlooking the marina. Took lots of time just hanging out then shot straight...

    * not boat related * When to put manners aside and speak up

    I agree with Jim's "If sending a butt roast fried pancake via fedex made my wife happy I'd buy her a dedicated frying pan, a freezer full of meat, and a daily fedex pickup." You will not win this one so get your dog out of this potential fight!

    Docking a Twin Stern Drive

    Obviously you have lots of schools of thought. I had a 30 with IO's for years and landed on not using the wheel because you cannot keep up with where the rudders are. I would ensure straight rudders when entering the marina then only use shifting to get her home. If all hell broke out, and it...

    Dinner on Tampa Bay

    Took our boat last night from Little Harbor to downtown St. Pete for sunset and dinner at Frescos. Great place and St. Pete Marina boat slip was $1 per hour... Anyone have other good places to go for an evening dinner that allows for 42" draft and 14' 3" beam? We have also done Apollo Beach and...

    Cape Coral Florida

    Check out the islands and keys in Pine Island Sound. #1 is Cabbage Key, you will never forget it and it will draw you back. Dinner at the Old Captiva House at Tween Waters inn on Captiva Island is an unbelievable experience. South Seas Plantation is a great stop, and gasperilla island at Boca...
