I am north of Baltimore and our marina was iced in during January (so much so that they were concerned it would lift the pilings). I think you are in for a very unhappy resolution but maybe you are extremely lucky? I do know that tonight it is supposed to be 27 and I am on the way to the boat...
Water was insanely low. Buddy of mine ran aground between Battery island and the city docks in Havre de grace. Sea tow said they had 14 groundings so far that day.
I ran both engines....for at least 15 minutes. Drained the engine blocks, and the risers/manifolds. (4 total brass plugs/each engine) and then I ran them on my tank with 5 gallons of pink stuff until the tank was empty pink stuff came out of the exhaust. Good....right????!!!!! I am a bit...
Reno was fantastic. He did the systems and structural survey. He took over 7 pages of notes, offered opinions and feedback during the survey and helped in any way he could. He found repairs that more than paid for his survey, and offered a final opinion on the overall quality of the boat. Mike...
I want to hire an engine surveyor in Annapolis...A friend recommended Mike Boss (M&L Marine).

Any thoughts or opinions would sure be appreciated!
How about Bay Village? They used to have a nice firework display. I am actually trailering back to OH for the 4th and had the same question. I think I am going to get a transient slip at Romps on the Vermillion River.
I was wondering if anyone has a problem with limited travel on the helm seat that limits them to sitting while driving, or being very uncomfortable while trying to stand. I have a garelick pedastal and it does travel back and forth, but it is just not enough for my above average body. :grin: I...
Far Superior? That seems like a very strong statement there Jim! :) Regardless of the battle over the mason-dixon line, I happen to really like PA....especially the northern part of the bay (havre de grace) which would give you fresh water until you started traveling south. Best of both worlds...
I unfortunately do not have a Sea Ray right now, but my current boat is a Wellcraft Martinique 2400...it has the 5.0gi (Volvo Penta) with the dou-prop system. I would much rather have the 5.7 or a Big block because the boat struggles to get on plane (with tabs) when full. My boat weighs 4500...
I had an old sea ray with similar issues....turned out to be corroded bolts through the transom plate...looked fine on each end, but the inside was viturally gone. Replaced them and everything was dry and transom was straight. Might be worth checking.
