The 11 meters used the Hynautic system, (conformed)

When I did my 2005 mechanical refit, a decision was made to upgrade from the factory system to the simple 2 line Teleflex SEASTAR system which does not require air pressure to operate.

the wooden ones have lasted this long; why change now? I threw that out there because I acknowledge that it might be OK for some folks, but that's just not how I roll though. I own my OCD. The nicest thing ever said about me I wasn't supposed to hear. Was replacing the cable life line that was on t...

Point of information David Pascoe, (R.I.P) posted those comments over 20 years ago in 1997. They were revised in 2001. When you are factoring in your costs, do not forget that the diesel boat will sell far faster and for far more coin than the gas boat. 10 years ago IPS and ZEUS drives were all the ...

I'm not a marine engineer and do not know the terms they use, however I was told that in-water tests showed the 11 meter hull was the slipperiest of all the International series. I don't know exactly WHAT that really means... least drag? most efficient? requires the least HP to push onto plane? I re...

might getting the wife onboard to actually see one be a better start?

i've messed with a number of windlasses on my own boat and others

For a larger cruiser the GOOD brand seems to be bulletproof and unbeatable

suggest doing some research on line before you commit to anything
