    Cape Cod to New York?

    Well, as the boating season is quickly approaching for us on Cape Cod (hopefully the weather will permit, unlike last Spring), we are thinking up some cool, new trips. Does anyone have any experience going from Cape Cod (or Boston) to New York City? Is this somewhat outrageous, or does it...

    Spring is Finally Here!

    Just went over to the boatyard, expecting Legal Limit to still be shrink-wrapped. Pleasantly surprised to see it has been bottom-painted and detailed for our April 1 launch date. Looks like we might even be in sooner than that! Very excited, and looking forward to some great boating! Hope...

    Winter Boating?

    Does anyone in New England do any winter boating? Our 270 SLX would not be ideal for this, but at the boat show we saw a pretty nice looking little Ranger R21 from Ranger Tugs. Thought it would be a neat idea to putt around in during the winter, since New England is such a beautiful...

    Cape Cod Boaters

    Getting anxious to get back on the boat! Hoping for an early April launch. Any Cape Cod (or Boston) boaters planning any trips? We haven't ventured too far with Legal Limit yet, but would love to get to Newport and Mystic at some point. We're not too sure if this would be too big of a trip...

    Unfortunate Fate of a 44 Sedan Bridge

    http://www.boats.com/boat-details/Sea-Ray-44-Sedan-Bridge/21473151 Just came across this. Looks nasty. :huh: How in the world is this boat salvageable?! The description tells a bit about a fire on a neighboring boat that has spread to this DB, but it makes it seem like the engine room...

    A few photos of a Cape Cod sunset

    Bummer that it's getting chilly and the boat's out of the water. It's nights like these that make you wish boating year-round boating in New England was possible, or remotely common. :smt009 Oh well, the scenery is still nice from land. I took these shots of the bay on November 1st.

    Boat Rentals in Ft. Lauderdale?

    Will be in the area around Thanksgiving. Looking for a place to rent a boat for the day ... Sea Ray would be nice, but anything would work. Just looking for a good, easy place to deal with. Boats should be reasonably sized (preferably ~22-30 feet). Thanks in advance.

    So Done With This Weather (and it's only begun)....

    Well, on September 24th, we were hauled out to make some minor gear teeth repairs to the outdrive. This process was supposed to be done in a few days. Here we are on October 17th, and the boat is sitting in the parking lot with no repairs made to the outdrive. Usually, the fall is the nicest...

I've only imagined what they look like inside. :lol: I know the boating season is (almost) over for us in...

    270 Select EX ... Bravo III ... Very Loud Clicking Noise

    Something with the drive unit is causing it click very loudly when in gear. In neutral, there's no clicking. Could something with the counter-rotation of the props be wrong? It sounds like the prop(s) is hitting something ... but when we got back to the dock, I raised the engine and could not...

    Brand New Boat Overheated! Smoke from engine compartment! Alarms Blaring!! HELP.

    Went to Martha's Vineyard for dinner. It was just a normal night on the island... until we were ready to come home. We tried to strategically leave before dark (around 7:30pm). Untied the lines, left the dock, and we were underway. Just got past the breakwater, ready to accelerate to get out...

    Falmouth, Cape Cod to Sakonnet, RI

    Has anyone done this trip before? I'm hoping it will be an easy trip; but I just thought I'd check with any of you. I have a 2009 Sea Ray 270 SLX. Heading over tomorrow morning, so any replies tonight would be greatly appreciated. It looks like it'll be flat waters until I hit the open...
